Accessorizing with Peach Fuzz: How to use the Pantone 2024 Color of the Year in Your Wedding
Published on December 14, 2023 | Updated January 11, 2024
By Katy EriksMove aside winter snow, we are ready for warm weather and Pantone’s 2024 Color of the Year, Peach Fuzz. Laurie Pressman, Vice President, Pantone Color Institute™, says “we wanted to turn to a color that could focus on the importance of community and coming together with others.” The perfect description of a wedding day, a moment to come together with others you love and to celebrate with your community.
With bellinis in hand and the sun on our faces, let’s dive into how Peach Fuzz can be accessorized in a 2024 wedding and beyond.
Destination Wedding
Sandy beaches and cotton candy sunsets are the perfect backdrops for a destination wedding incorporating the color peach fuzz. We’re picturing tan suits, brown leather suspenders, bare feet, and open shirt collars. Next to the tan suits, ladies dressed in light heather peach bridesmaids dresses holding bouquets of tropical flowers will round out the theme of the beach party. Be sure to read up on groom style for ways your groom can stand out from the groomsmen.
Dress for the Occasion
Pale peach or light pink bridesmaids dresses pair well with dusty blue or navy blue suits, bright peach or orange roses, and pops of bright white.
Outside of the wedding day, we’re looking to incorporate peach into our regular jewelry rotation, and on the rims of our sunglasses. Peach is the perfect pop of color if you’re looking to be bold yet subtle. A silky peach shirt under a blue blazer, or peach shoes paired with denim jeans are simple ways to add a little bit of peach fuzz to your spring wardrobe.
Decorate your Space
Peach hued vintage cocktail glasses, silky napkins, and flowers galore are great ways to bring “velvety gentle peach” into your wedding decor. However, keep the rest of the decor simple. Whites, greens, and blues are all great complementary colors along with gold candlesticks and place settings. Give peach fuzz its moment to shine.
At home, find a few peach pots for your succulents, pick up a peach throw blanket, and finally buy the peach stemmed wine glasses you’ve been eyeing. The color is inviting and warm and will make guests feel welcomed into your space.
2024’s Pantone color of the year inspires us to come together with the ones we love, to share memories, and to embrace those warm fuzzy feelings. For your 2024 wedding, import peaches from our newest home state, plan your peach margarita signature cocktail with your caterer, or go bold and abundant with your flower arrangements. And remember, the color is about togetherness and nothing brings a group of people together like the celebration of love.
