Something Old, Something New, Trending Sodalite Blue


Ahhh it’s happening, winter is coming to an end, and spring is knock, knock, knocking on the door.  As the weather turns warmer our minds shift to brighter, more cheerful colors of exotic reds and oranges, bright sunny yellows, popping pinks, lush tropical greens and hopping hues of blues.   Sodalite blues that is.



Pairing this blue color with other soft spring blues is what is trending now.  Even my own wardrobe is sporting these colors as I am drawn to them.  

Sodalite blue gets its name from the mineral sodalite, a beautiful gemstone boasting streaks of royal blue.  Though the color is rich and bold, sodalite blue is sophisticated enough to ground brighter colors, it looks fab paired with lime green, and adds an unexpected twist to a palette of coral and fuschia.  A casual spring wedding adorned with bright florals would welcome a dose of this rich, calming hue of blue.

 At a casual beach wedding, breezy neutrals and seaglass tones look great with a bold pop of sodalite blue. A twist of ribbon or a few vintage vases are all you need to add that dose of sophistication!


Whether it’s a festive spring affair, or a casual soiree by the shore, no wedding is complete without favors! Complement your new favorite shade of blue with a few of our favorites from Volner's Love and Carriage and Kate Aspen.

 Happy Planning!
