Pantone Color of The Year 2020: Classic Blue
For the past 20 years The Pantone Color Institute has taken it upon themselves to analyze global trends across various industries and name a Pantone Color of the Year. This forecasted color trend then comes to affect the year’s fashion, products, and of course WEDDINGS!
The past few years have been characterized by bold and vibrant featured colors including Living Coral (2019), Ultra Violet (2018), and Greenery (2017); however, Pantone just announced Classic Blue as their 2020 color of the year! Classic Blue, “a timeless and enduring blue hue”, ushers us into the new decade with more of a sense of tradition, serenity and dependability.
“Elegant in its simplicity”, Classic Blue is sure to inspire a year of beautiful weddings – and that’s where we come in!! Keep reading for all of our ideas for incorporating classic blue into your wedding day!
