Soft blue + blush + ivory = romantic and sweet

Nothing says romance like soft, soothing tones. Ivory creates a timeless base, soft blue adds a cool, airy feel, and blush brings a touch of charm and sweetness. Light and fresh, this summer wedding color palette is excellent for barn weddings, as they easily complement natural wood tones and rustic touches. We recommend utilizing ivory colors in larger decorative pieces, such as tablecloths or aisle runners, and weaving powder blues and soft pinks throughout the florals, bridesmaids’ dresses, and small decorative touches like candles or dinnerware.

bold greens + teal + red + ochre yellow = Memorable and artistic

Do you want a summer wedding color palette that transforms your barn wedding venue into a space reminiscent of a gorgeous June sunset? Then, these color combinations are here to help bring your big day to life. Teal adds depth, red brings drama, and yellow brings a pop of personality beautifully grounded by shades of bold green. Together, these rustic summer wedding colors pull inspiration from wildflowers and greenery scattered around Kentucky for one memorable evening. We suggest layering these colors through florals, table settings, and candles for an eclectic, classy atmosphere.                     

Green + white = timeless and classy

If you wish to keep things simple and classic when dressing up your Kentucky wedding venue, we recommend lush greens and pops of white. Effortlessly elegant, these colors are perfect for a barn wedding with a refined touch. Rich greenery brings a natural, organic feel that pairs perfectly with the venue, while crisp whites ensure everything looks clean and classic. If you want to give this style a modern twist, consider adding textured linens, vintage tableware, or botanical accents like white florals with trailing vines, green glassware, or soft white drapes against rustic wood. Always beautiful, these wedding colors for summer are perfect for couples who love a traditional aesthetic.
