White is the eternal wedding color, but there are a growing number of brides who are looking to personalize their special day by using color in their wedding accessories. From a pop of color on a white gown to entire themes that carry through the flowers, décor, and favors, color is a great way to set a mood for guests or to make a statement about your personal style. Customizing with color offers brides a huge range of creativity.

They can choose colors to honor their heritage, to evoke the atmosphere of a certain place, or to celebrate a special memory. The options are really unlimited. A good tip for choosing wedding colors is that you must love the colors you choose. You should also keep in mind that different colors will create different moods, and not all colors will be a good fit for your wedding depending on where and when you are having it.

Major looks from the Spring/Summer 2011 fashion shows indicate that bright block colors, florals, lace, prints and long lengths are top favorites, as can be seen through designers such as Jill Sander, Prada and Marc Jacobs.

Spring wedding guest fashion trends this year focus on delicate, floaty dresses with longer lengths. A maxi dress like that can be re-used as well, especially in the summer.

Bloomingdale's fashion director, Stephanie Solomon feels that this is a great season for dressing up for a wedding. Sheer floaty chiffon will be a wedding guest fashion staple this season. For those that are bold, loud colors are also a quite popular wedding guest fashion trend.
