Pastel Wedding Décor Inspiration

Spring is the perfect time to dive into pastel palettes to inspire your perfect, soft, and seasonal wedding. The days are lengthening, the sun is shining with a bit more intensity, the air has a hint of warmth in its breeze, and the world is becoming acutely aware that another seasonal shift is waiting just around the next corner. Soon, spring flowers will begin to emerge, and local flora will revive itself in the wonderfully cyclical character inherent of the natural world. Pastel weddings are light, airy, whimsical, and subtly sweet in the most gorgeous way. We’ve compiled a few beautiful pastel wedding décor ideas to inspire you in planning your perfect springtime wedding.

Table Settings & Dinnerware

Let’s talk pastel table runners. This is a décor item that really creates a specific ambiance. Table runners command attention in a venue space and tie the color scheme together.

This pastel periwinkle table runner blends seamlessly with silky blue napkins to create a wonderfully soft, sweet and springy aesthetic. What we love about pastels is that there are so many color combinations that work together to create the perfect palette for your special day. This blue simultaneously contrasts from and works in conjunction with the pale floral design selected for this wedding’s centerpieces.

Shades of soft and pretty pinks are always in style! This gorgeous pastel tablecloth is such a beautiful centerpiece standout. It separates the expanse of white and adds a pop of color without overwhelming the senses. This gorgeous pink also coordinates beautifully with the floral arrangements and creates a stunning cohesive aesthetic.

Soft pink is such a universal pigment that it can be paired with almost anything. What we love about this example is that it pairs pastel with other colors of richer value. The pale pink contrasts against the deep green garland and subtly pops against the clean white table setting and chairs. This is a perfect example of how to use pastels in combination with other hues — don’t feel like choosing one pastel means you have to commit to an entire pastel color palette! Choosing this route can also alleviate any potential pressure of feeling confined to one specific season by your preference in color palette; pastels are famously springy, but when used in conjunction with other vibrant hues, they can be made appropriate for any time of year. We love pastels because they are versatile!

This baby blue table setting stands apart from the others because it uses coordinated aspects of the same color scheme to create cohesion without overwhelming. The blue table runner, plates and delicate glassware are all working together to create the perfect pastel ambiance. This setup places emphasis on the details!

Vintage teacups often come in a variety of romantic pastel colors. This could be a fun option for couples that love to thrift, too! Vintage teacups can be used for your post-dinner coffee and tea spread while elevating your wedding décor with their elegance and distinct style.

Florals

This gorgeous floral display showcases beautifully selected pastel purples and pinks that perfectly coordinate with a unique vintage glass backdrop. Vintage and depression-era glass are both distinct and striking options for décor that will be sure to intrigue your guests. Vintage glassware pays such stunning attention to detail and craftsmanship that the product itself is a work of art outside of the variety of colors that these pieces often come in. Depression-era glassware can also be used in place of your standard drinkware choices to add some color and aesthetic to your table settings.

Pastel décor can also take the form of beautiful greenery. These eucalyptus garlands and napkin holders are adorable examples of using natural pigmentation of soft foliage to stand out and create a beautiful springtime display.

This pretty pink display highlights the versatility of pastel décor. We love the emphasis on texture as well as color here! The chiffon fabric coordinates perfectly with the floral arrangements and creates a uniquely stunning centerpiece.

This floral arrangement is such a cute and unique piece of pastel décor! We love the minty green color and how it is the perfect simple, addition to this beautiful aisleway.

Wedding Arbor

This arch creates drama and whimsy without overpowering the scene. The subtlety of the pale curtain backdrop creates a perfect neutral setting to provide a romantic ambiance without detracting from the main event: the happy couple!

We love pastels! Whether you are looking for that perfect springtime palette to draw inspiration for your own seasonal wedding, or you just love the pale and delicate pigmentation of pastel colors, we hope this list inspires you when finding décor for your own soft and dreamy wedding.
