Grey is the Color of the Moment
Posted on Jan 22, 2009 9:18:36 AM  |  By The Blogsmaid

If you haven't noticed, Grey is the wedding color couture these days!  I think it's going to be what we see for 2009, and am already seeing "sneak peaks" here and there.  In case you haven't noticed, some of the trends and boards I've seen out there.  This Pink and Grey Inspiration board, via Snippet and Ink:

And then there are the invitations.....This amazing Kenzie Kate invitation (the best quality, btw) was featured in a Real Wedding Wrap Up from Elizabeth Anne Designs.

So, what do you think? Is Grey the chic color of the moment or a little too drab for your wedding?

I think gray is hip not drab. That's my vote.

You know, when I first read it, I thought "GREY- EW!) but wow it can really make a bright color pop. I love the grey and orange invitations. (My wedding will be in August 2010 and will be brown/orange.)

I loved it when grey started popping up as a hot color for weddings. As long as it's done right, it's a great color for weddings! We're using it for a more vintage version of the classic black/white/red color palette -- we're using charcoal, ruby, and cream. I love grey because it's a little softer than black, but still gives you a dark, dramatic color in your palette. I hope this trend stays around for a while!

I like all the grey we're seeing this year. It's fresh and can be a great neutral for your other colors to play against.

I think it would depend on the venue. The space where I'm getting married would look so drab if I went with grey, but I could see how some could totall pull of this color scheme.

I love grey, and have been noticing this trend more often. Particularly royal purple and fuschia look wonderful against grey. I hope I see more brides considering it in their palette. Especially for an icy/frosty winter wedding theme.
