Mauve wedding color palette

Mauve is the muted purple-brown-pink between dusty rose and plum, romantic and slightly overcast at the same time. It deepens a blush palette without the jump to burgundy, and it photographs like dusk seen through a wine glass. Dried hydrangea and lisianthus are the florist's shortcut to it.

What goes with mauve

Mauve pairs with sage and cream for softness, or with plum and burgundy for a richer fall table. Champagne and gold warm it; silver pulls it grey and cool.

When mauve works best

Best for fall weddings, vineyards, and moody romantic palettes.

Real flowers for a mauve palette

Dried hydrangea and lisianthus are the florist's shortcut to the purple-brown-pink between dusty rose and plum.

  • LisianthusFocal flower

    Lisianthus is greenhouse-grown and available year-round; its ruffled blooms stand in for roses or peonies across cream, mauve, and purple.

  • HydrangeaSecondary flower

    Hydrangea is available year-round through greenhouse and import stems for a full blue-to-mauve mass; it dries well, and antique dried heads carry the dusty tones.
