Viva Las Vegas? No, Viva Magenta! Yes, the Pantone Color Institute has recently debuted its color of 2023 and its Viva Magenta 18-1750. This deep, vivacious hue is sure to shake up wedding trends this year and inspire couples who are ready to make a statement on their special day.
Here’s our tips from the Weddings of Pittsburgh team on how to incorporate this vibrant shade into your wedding celebration.
We Can Create A Viva Magenta Experience Custom Just For You!
Viva Magenta can be used to add an extra pop of color to your bridal dress or groom’s suit, as well as create a cohesive visual across all elements of your wedding day décor. Because remember as I always say: “Details Matter!”
Utilize this color on everything from napkins and centerpieces, ties and boutonnieres, stationery and signage—even cake decorations! Bright accessories like shoes and jewelry can also help to tie together any look with a pleasant dose of vibrancy.
Pairing this with the other hottest color of the year PANTONE 19-0303 TCX Jet Black can really heat things up! This is one of my favorite dresses. I love how the black and silver pop that magenta, do you like it too? What is your favorite pink outfit?
Pretty in Pink?
Your bridesmaids will look radiant in deep magenta dresses and posies of seasonal flowers. The groomsmen can stand out in chic grey with bright pink ties or statement boutonnieres that bring the look to life.
Finish off With a Touch of Sparkle
Viva Magenta is perfect for bringing a touch of glamour and sparkle to your wedding day celebration. Consider adding accents of glitter, sequins, metallic finishes, and jeweled details—all in shades of Viva Magenta—to liven up any aspect of the décor.
Get Creative with the Details
Viva magenta is perfect for making bold statements without going too overboard. Use it sparingly as accents in ceremony arches or flower arrangements; think wildflowers or peonies sprinkled with greenery. You can also incorporate it into unique aspects like table linens, runners or linen napkins! These small details will give your guests something extra special to admire while they’re enjoying their meals.
Add interesting pieces like ceiling draping, hanging lanterns, or dreamcatchers adorning in ribbons of magenta blooms for added depth. You can even apply this hue in something as small as your table cards for guests when they walk into the reception space!
Go Big with a Flower Wall
Flower walls are a beautiful way to make a statement and add pops of color to the entire event space. They can also provide an elegant backdrop for your wedding photos! Choose from various arrangements – anything from dainty lilies, wild and textured roses, orchid vines, and more – in shades of Viva Magenta that will turn heads and give your wedding an extra touch of glamour, we can even design a custom flower wall with your precise colors.
Drape to the Gods
Who doesn’t love a good drapery design? Transform your venue spacing by draping your reception hall in swathes of magenta fabric for an elegant, romantic atmosphere that is sure to wow your guests. Use different swirly patterns and textures for extra depth, or have us hang fairy lights from the ceiling for some sparkle!
Finish it off With a Final Touch of Sparkle
Don’t forget about the bling! Add sparkles, crystals and glitter to your décor in the form of table decorations, hanging mobiles, table ice and light fixtures. Even use silver or gold accents to bring out the richness of this vibrant color!
