No surprise peach weddings can be seen at every church, chapel and civil service this year. Why? Because Pantone declared peach fuzz it’s designated colour of the year for 2024. And their annual announcement always makes waves in the wedding world.

In fact, it’s almost as if Pantone had peach weddings in mind when they plumped for this year’s pretty pastel.

This is the description Executive Director of the Pantone Color Institute Leatrice Eiseman gave when asked What is PANTONE 13-1023 Peach Fuzz?:

“In seeking a hue that echoes our innate yearning for closeness and connection, we chose a colour radiant with warmth and modern elegance. A shade that resonates with compassion, offers a tactile embrace, and effortlessly bridges the youthful with the timeless.”

But there’s just one small catch…

Peach weddings are more than vaguely reminiscent of overblown ‘80s weddings, where substance exceeded style. Think full-on meringues, minus the Princess Di allure!

The good news is brides and grooms-to-be are doing things differently in the 21st century. This soft, velvety shade offers endless scope to create unique and memorable wedding environments, whether you’re aiming for shabby chic or timeless elegance.

Let’s explore how you can infuse your big day with this deliciously delicate shade.

How to Achieve Rustic Charm with Peach Fuzz

Rustic weddings are all about creating a warm, inviting atmosphere with natural elements and a touch of whimsy. For these reasons, peach fuzz lends a soft, romantic vibe to this wildly popular theme.

Here’s a few ideas to think about for dreamy peach weddings, either indoors or under the stars:

  • Start with a foundation of distressed wood vintage tables for a natural, earthy feel.
  • Introduce peach fuzz through napkins, adding a pop of colour that ties the whole look together.
  • Create contrast with storm grey plates and grey glass water tumblers for a contemporary edge.
  • Pair these with amber stemmed wine glasses for a touch of warmth.
  • Use a rough and tumble mix of aromatic eucalyptus leaves and peach florals for a simple yet ethereal centrepiece exuding peasant-style charm.
  • Adds height and drama to your décor, with stunning overhanging displays of peaches and cream florals, accented with lashings of gypsophila.

And if you’re head over heels for something more classic? Peach fuzz is the perfect partner for more time-honoured wedding styles too.

Prefer Traditionally Elegant Peach Weddings?

Peach fuzz is equally gorgeously for formal and traditional affairs. It’s simply a case of using the same breathtaking shade in different ways, without compromising on spellbinding impact. For example:

  • Blend of peach napkins with Urbane chalk tablecloths. The heavy, woven finish and beautiful drape creates a sophisticated palette that’s both fresh and classic.
  • Layer clear glass beaded charger plates with simple white Bianca plates to keep the focus on the beautiful linens and cutlery. Or consider using square white plates for a contemporary edge while serving up the food of love.
  • The crisp, clean look of silver tone Signature cutlery pairs perfectly with this setting.
  • Incorporate the radiant tones of peach, butterscotch and cream in minimalist centrepieces of roses, carnations, freesias, lilies, chrysanthemums, fresh herbs and foliage, for an understated yet stunning look.

Ultimately, peach fuzz is the perfect match for eating, drinking and being married. It offers limitless captivating possibilities to make your wedding day uniquely yours, from table settings and floral arrangements to invitations and lighting. So, why not let this on-point shade inspire your dream celebration of life, love and marriage?
