In case you missed it! The Pantone Color of the Year for 2020 is “classic blue”. A color that is traditionally used as “something blue” for a bride’s wedding day attire finally gets its full-blown, shinning moment.The color blue is a symbol of trust, loyalty, and confidence and we can’t think of a more perfect color to be the showstopper of your next event or upcoming wedding.

You can find inspiration for incorporating blue from the sky, the ocean, Texas’ state flower – bluebonnets, and so many wonderful things around you. We’ve compiled a few photos and 4 ways we’ve incorporated classic blue into Swift + Company events.

Linens

Add a wow factor and ditch a basic colored linen! An unexpected way to bring in a color is to choose a bold linen to be the focal point of your event.

Flowers

Incorporating classic blue into flowers can be a challenge to not make them appear artificial but that doesn’t mean you don’t have options! Hydrangeas are a great option to inject blue into your floral arrangements since they come in all different kinds of hues.
