Wedding Color Palettes

A wedding has one color palette, and it holds up to six colors. It sits above the mood boards, on the wedding's Mood Board tab, labeled Wedding Color Palette.

One palette per wedding, not per board — the colors you pick apply to the whole wedding regardless of which board you were looking at.

Adding a color by hand

Click the empty swatch to open Select a Color, then pick one or type a hex value. It joins the palette straight away.

Pulling colors out of an image

This is the quicker route, and it needs no button.

Select an image on any mood board. The extractor appears beside the board tabs, reads the picture — showing EXTRACTING PALETTE while it works — and offers the distinct colors it found, up to six. Click any of them to add it to the wedding's palette.

Colors already in your palette are recognized, so you are choosing from what is genuinely new in the image.

Managing the palette

• Remove a color with the control on its swatch.
• Six is the cap. At six, add another by removing one first.
• There is no reordering. Colors sit in the order they were added, so add the primary first if order matters to you.

Where the palette shows up

The palette appears on the shared mood board page, so a couple following the link sees the scheme alongside the images it came from.

It is a reference, not a design tool: nothing else in CeremonySync is themed by it, and it does not print on documents. Its value is that everyone — couple, florist, decorator, stationer — is looking at the same six colors with the same hex values underneath.

Practical use

• Extract from a photograph the couple chose rather than one you like. The palette should describe their taste.
• Pull from a close-up, not a wide shot. A bouquet gives you flower tones; a room gives you wall and sky.
• Stop at four or five. Six is the ceiling, not a target, and a tight palette is easier for vendors to hit.
• Fix the palette before the florist quotes. Changing it afterwards changes the quote.
