Pantone Wedding Color: Peapod

Green is one of my favorite colors so when they announced the Pantone Colors for 2011 I was excited to see peapod green included. The light color or peapod feels very clean and springy to me. And spring means weddings! 

This color can appear in all aspects of your wedding from attire, to flowers to the wedding cake. It is a nice idea to mix the different greens with the peapod greeen and even incorporate some whites and ivories in with the florals for a very clean and simple look.
