The colour around us affects how we feel and how we look and I started to think about how brides decide upon their colour for one of the most important days of their life.
Does it start with your favourite colour, a colour that means something to you, or a colour that you know your bridesmaids will look good in?
Is your favourite flower for your wedding bouquet the first consideration or the decor at the venue? It may be the time of year, autumnal shades or Christmas glitter.
Here are just a few of the colours my couples chose in recent months.
Wedding Day Colour
Clare & John and Karen & Andrew both chose cream and sapphire blue for their wedding day.

The radiant Natalie with her beautiful bridesmaids in blue.
The Delphiniums were the grand starting point for dramatic displays at Eynsham Hall.
Emma & Tim wanted their colours to blend with the décor at their venue, Down Hall. The red and gold looked amazing. The tables were named after different types of tea with a hint of Alice in Wonderland.
Tom & Gary wanted the wedding breakfast room at Ponsbourne Park to look stylish and elegant. The result was simply stunning in cream and grey.
Purple is always a popular colour, especially of the chocolate variety! This vibrant yet elegant colour made Saima and Paul's wedding cake the perfect centrepiece at Fanhams Hall.
Kealey and Jonathan's day at Shendish Manor was a blend of purples, pinks, cream.
Pinks and creams are forever popular and looked very pretty in these bridesmaid's bouquets at Natalie and Barry's wedding at Three Lakes, West Mill Farm, Ware.
The bridesmaids wore a stunning shade of orange.
Laurens bouquet blended with the subtle early autumn shades in the landscape.
Even the boys liked the flowers!
From Bottle to Sage, greens were a popular choice all year.
Sage green and pink. Always a good combination.
Lisa's bouquet was a combination of fabric and knitted flowers.
Simple decorated jars with ribbons an buttons were a lovely touch.
Katharine and Stephen's October wedding at Offley Place was made even more beautiful by the stunning colour scheme.
And finally red and blue. The perfect combination for Gemma and Richard's Christmas Wedding at Latimer Place that also happened to be Richard's regimental colours.
Do I have a favourite colour scheme to photograph? Yes I do..... But I'm not going to tell you what it is!!!! Every couple is different and their colour is perfect for them.

I am looking forward to seeing the 2014 colour trends.
