June wedding colors

June wedding color palettes with named colors and hex codes, the flowers in season, the usual weather, and a free generator to make your own.

June is the first full month of summer, with the longest days of the year. Peony, Garden Mint and Lavender Field are at home, and garden roses and peonies are at their peak. The 11 palettes below suit it; each one opens in the editor.

Long evenings mean a late sunset, so the best light for photographs is later than you might expect. The generator above is set to summer shades for June, with the flowers in season.

Text on your paper

Your main color is a little pale for text on your neutral (1.6 to 1; 4.5 to 1 is easier to read). A deeper shade, #7c5253, would read clearly.

In season for summer

Peonies, Garden roses, Delphinium, Snapdragons, Sweet peas, Hydrangeas, Larkspur, Lisianthus, Sunflowers, Zinnias, Dahlias, Cosmos, Gladiolus, Lavender, Celosia, Marigolds

A guide only. A florist will know what is growing near you.

A veil shade to look at

With a neutral like yours, Pale Ivory is the veil shade we would look at first. Colors look different on every screen, so see it in person where you can. We never promise an exact match. Your palette is a soft, light cream.

    June colors for the wedding party

    • Light, breathable fabrics in coral, sea glass or soft yellow.
    • A light suit in stone, sand or soft blue; linen is comfortable in the heat.
    • Think about shade and shoes for grass or gravel.

    What colors to wear to a June wedding

    • White, ivory and cream are usually the couple's, so most guests leave them to the couple. The same goes for a very pale champagne.
    • If the invitation names the wedding party's color, wear something different.
    • In some traditions all black is for mourning and all white is for the couple, and red can be the couple's color at some Chinese and Indian weddings. If you are not sure, ask, or check the invitation for a dress code.
    • Otherwise, wear what you feel good in. Colors that suit the season are always welcome.

    How to choose June wedding colors

    1. Start with one thing you love. A season, a color, a photo of the venue or a dress, or nothing yet. Any of them is a fine place to begin.

    2. Pick a few pictures. Three short rounds. Choose two to four in each, and the quiz names your style.

    3. Check the five colors. You get a main color, an accent, a neutral, greenery and a metal, each with our name and a hex code.

    4. Change what you like. Lock the ones you love and shuffle the rest, make any of them lighter or darker, or choose from about 120 named colors.

    5. Share it. Make a board for your florist or stationer, or send a link to your partner and see what you both chose.
