Wedding Color Meanings

White

White is a common color used with weddings in the West – mostly because of its association with purity and innocence. However, white can also be associated with coldness and cleanliness (think about how white a doctor's office is), as well as winter, snow, and peace.

In Eastern countries, white is often associated with death and mourning, possibly because dead bodies are covered in white shrouds. This association should not seem that strange since even in the West, when we think of someone dressed up like a ghost we picture them covered in a white sheet.
Black

Black is not as common for weddings because in the West it has such a negative connotation. When we think of black, we think of unlucky black cats, evil lurking in dark places, as well as sadness, grief, and death.

However, black is also associated with sophistication and modernity. That's why so much modern furniture and most electronics are black.
Blue

Blue is perhaps one of the best wedding colors to choose. Research has shown that blue is related to the least amount of negative connotations and the most positive ones, regardless of culture. It seems you'd have a hard time going wrong with blue, especially since it is associated with so many good things, such as clear skies, quiet seas, tranquility, loyalty, fresh water, and truthfulness. In fact, in some other cultures, blue is viewed as a color that can keep away evil spirits.
