It's a colour to splash about as a wedding theme.
We're talking Tangerine Tango here - picked by Pantone as their colour of the year for 2012.
Now orange might not be the first shade that springs to mind when you're planning a moodboard for your big day. But look more closely and you'll see loads of opportunities.

It's a warm, vibrant hue that can be mixed and matched with other contrasting colours to create some dazzling looks.
Tangerine and pinks work well together - as does tangerine and turquoise. It's called colour-blocking and it's right on trend just now.

Dress your bridesmaids in a blue frock and add tangerine accessories - maybe a pashmina or fabric flower.


This is where the Pantone Chiplettes from Dessy come into their own. Pick a base shade and then see what you feel works well with it.
Tangerine Tango isn't just a good choice for a spring wedding. Think about mixing it with rich chocolate browns for a winter wedding. With whites in the summer. And of course, it's the perfect choice for an autumn day.
And if you're planning a destination wedding, remember that vibrant brights always look good in a tropical setting ...
