Soft lilac, mauve, and dusty rose are the most photographed color trends of 2025. These romantic tones create a dreamy aesthetic that complements every skin tone and pairs stunningly with both traditional and contemporary décor.
How to use it: Go for a lilac backdrop with muted pink blooms, rose-gold accents, and warm lighting for that ethereal evening radiance. Perfect for pre-wedding functions, receptions, and intimate sangeets.
- Terracotta & Burnt Orange – Earthy Meets Exotic
For couples who want to add warmth and cultural depth, terracotta, rust, and burnt orange are stealing the spotlight. These tones celebrate tradition while feeling globally trendy — perfect for destination weddings in Jaipur, Udaipur, or Goa.
How to use it: Pair earthy shades with gold or beige linens, clay décor pieces, and marigold florals. This palette works wonders for mehendi and haldi functions under natural sunlight.
