[Poll] Blues Hues

Growing up, my bedroom walls were pale purple, my sheets were purple, I think I even had some bright purple short-alls. I loved me some purple. More recently, I've become addicted to teal and own too many teal pieces of clothing to count. Jeng, on the other hand, forever prefers black and gray. Boooooring!

Needless to say, picking colors for this wedding of ours is no easy task. I know what I do not want: pink, red, orange or anything in-between. Bright and perky colors are so not me. But dark and dreary isn't very fitting for a wedding celebration. So now what?

Wedding colors dictate a mood, set a tone, and showcase my style. (I say "my" instead of "ours" because for this topic, Jeng is useless in decision-making.) I always wanted an urban feel to our wedding so I knew I wanted cool colors with a funky edge. Plus, I wanted the guys in charcoal suits/tuxes so our colors needed to go with that. And of course, I have to be original.

So I decided to look to nature for inspiration, specifically things that I like -- the city, wine, and maybe even flowers. So here are some color palettes I'm considering and the photos that I pulled them from:
