Although not quite as popular as it was a decade ago, you will still find plenty of taupes and chocolatey browns at today’s weddings.  Being an earth tone, brown is equated with security, stability, and comfort. Historically, dark browns were thought to represent ‘hearth and home.’
Ivory is a neutral color that evokes a level of impartiality. It is warmer, richer and more elegant than white. For weddings, Ivory is calming and encouraging; with a feeling of simple elegance, tradition and sophistication. It often has a sentimental and aged feel to it.
