Best Wedding Theme Colors of Summer 2025
Choosing the color(s) for your wedding may be one of the most important decisions you’ll have to make for the big day. After all, almost every aspect revolves around it, from your wedding party dresses and suits to the flowers, table settings, cake—even perhaps invitations. For a summer wedding, let the sunny hues of the warmer months set the tone of the day, whether you lean into bold colors, mix and match vibrant shades, or opt for a warm pastel palette. To spark inspiration, we rounded up some of the most popular color themes for a summer wedding.
Sage Green
Green and summer are a match made in heaven—just like the lovely couple! The natural tone complements the season and can be enhanced by greenery throughout the venue. As a bonus, almost any flower arrangement in an array of colors will play off the color beautifully.
Coastal Blues
Bring the beach vibes to your wedding day with a soft blue color palette reminiscent of the ocean. A classic style, blue looks great on pretty much everyone, so your wedding party need not stress about their dresses/suits. The hue can even double as your “something blue!”
Blush Pink
Pastels are another great option for a summer wedding. This soft pink offers a soothing, neutral look that allows you to play with color in other aspects (see: the bold red in the floral arrangements shown here) and really let the venue and decor shine.
Burnt Orange
A pop of bright color is perfect for summer! This vibrant orange evokes scenes of a seasonal sunset, perfect for an evening wedding. Not to mention you can have fun with often-overlooked orange florals like marigolds, orange lilies and roses, pansies, tulips, and poppies.
Monochromatic White
An all-white wedding is timeless, offering a modern and minimalist aesthetic that’s kept cohesive with white linens, candles, and curtains. The pops of green offer a nice touch, bringing some of that outdoor summer energy inside.
Dusty Pink + Dark Blue
This color combo will never go out of style. Mix and match the hues throughout the venue as well with pink floral arrangements and dark blue tableclothes and napkins, to name just a couple of ideas.
