Rainbow Wedding Touches, Inspired by St. Patty’s Day

Every year, St. Patrick’s Day infuses March with a shot of fun. It’s a lively holiday that brings a sense of playfulness along with a kaleidoscope of colors. The best news? St. Patrick’s Day is not just for the Irish! We love that it’s a day to celebrate and enjoy a variety of festivities, including parades, special foods, music, dancing, the color green (hold for applause), and our personal favorite, rainbows.

According to Irish folklore, if you follow a rainbow, you’ll find a pot of gold at the end. On your wedding day, sharing a commitment to the person you love is like finding your own pot of gold. Wedding day details in technicolor happen year round. We’ve gathered our favorites for those who love all things rainbow. It will get you inspired for the holiday or your big day coming up.

Wedding flowers in multi-hues are the perfect pairing for natural dresses and details. The bolder, the better! This gives a nice pop of color while still keeping things looking cohesive and sophisticated.

Looking for a bigger statement? You can also go the opposite direction and embrace the rainbow with your bridesmaids dresses. Have your bridesmaids pick their favorite color dress to don for your wedding. The best part— these bridal colors come with a built-in acronym. Just follow ROYGBIV!

The groomsmen can get in on the colorful fun, too. Keep it classic with a traditional suit but add a fun twist. Ask each of the groomsmen to rock a different color bow tie. It’s a dashing, whimsical approach to traditional groomsmen attire.

You can also find color in your surroundings, just look for a technicolor location for your photos. City art and murals are a great source of color and pattern. They make for fun and striking wedding photo backdrops.

Another approach we love: include some confetti poppers in your festivities. It’s always a wedding photo-op we love. It’s a bright burst of color that can’t be beat… and the reaction shots are always incredible.

Thinking about tossing rice? What if you swap them out for rainbow sprinkles instead. This surprising shock of color will delight your guests. It photographs great! Plus, everyone gets a sweet treat if they have sprinkles left over.

Finally, there’s no better way to incorporate rainbow into your wedding than with everyone’s childhood favorite. We’re talking about confetti cake. This nostalgic cake flavor is a burst of color and surprise. If you want to go all in (and why wouldn’t you?), you can have a funfetti wedding cake or cupcakes.
