Wedding Inspiration Board: Bold and Powerful Red

Looking for some red wedding color ideas? Red is the most aggressive color. Our eyes are trained to seek it out before any other. Which means it can leave a lasting impression!

If you’re going to use red for your wedding or reception, think about going bold! Let the fierceness of this color draw the eye! Below, I’ve paired images where red is stunning and undeniable. It demands our attention.

With only a few stems, you can create impressive centerpieces. Consider the powerful silhouette of a single orchid spire. Use roses in full bloom, or shower petals over a reception table.

A small gift can become a stunning eye-catcher in a little red box. Or entice your guests to the dessert table with raspberries that glitter like giant rubies on top of chocolates.

Red also has a lot of impact thematically. It’s the color of passion and love. After all, love is like “a red, red rose, that newly sprung in June,” (or at least that’s the opinion of Robert Burns’ poetry). Red is not for the weak of heart, but for the bold and passionate!
