Purple covers such a wide range of colours that if you lean towards bluer shades you can take the lilac option or if you fancy something with more drama, go for vibrant dark purple. At weddings, the colour works really well because it looks a bit more dramatic than more traditional colours like green or pink as well as providing a great backdrop to brilliant white gowns.
