Purple Wedding Ideas

Purple really brings a feeling of elegance and beauty. This rich color can be paired with almost any color to make the perfect wedding color palette.

We are loving how our next bride combined this regal color with soft hues of pinks and greens at her relaxed Pennsylvanian garden wedding. Photographed by one of our favorites, Pat Furey Photography. There are more lovely purple wedding ideas in the full wedding gallery for you to peruse.

From The Bride Jocelyn:

Our shutter door escort card holder was actually our florist’s idea, they provided the shutter and placed small votives with flowers around our escort cards. It worked really well with our venue because of the vintage/country feel of the garden where our cocktail hour took place. For our favors, I bought small kraft boxes and stuffed them with moss and 2 daffodil bulbs, then stamped with a custom stamp we had made reading “love blooms” and our monogram. We thought it was a cute idea for our late summer/fall wedding so guests can plant them before winter and have something to remember our wedding by.  I collected vintage photos of our parents and granparents and framed them to display on our guest book table. Our guest book was actually an address box I found on Etsy that was created in our colors.

  12. When was this wedding held? Because it looks much more springlike than autumn. Very very pretty. I love the wisteria.

    I was expecting “blaring purple” when I red the title, but these are more a smoky lavender…love it.

  13. Oh wow! Purple is my favourite colour and I am currently working out how to work it into my own wedding, which is still a few months away. The flowers are just beautiful! Congratulations!!!

  17. Alyce – The bridesmaids dresses are Amsale. We got them at Bijou Bridal in Ardmore, PA. :)

  19. The Pat Furey Photography links are directed to A Garden Party Floral Creations. Beautiful photography and flowers though! :)

  20. That shutter door escort card holder is pure brilliant! And the cupcakes are such a fresh and eye-popping new take on the traditional wedding cake. We’re obsessed with wedding pics, especially when it comes to bridal fashion. Take a peek at our current couture here Misses Dressy
