Pantone color of the year for 2013 has just been announced! The beautiful hue of Emerald has been selected to inspire your color choices for all of next year. As green is one of my favorite colors I am excited! This is a great vibrant and lively color that would be great in a wedding color palette. Here is what Pantone has to say about their new color endorsement:

“Green is the most abundant hue in nature – the human eye sees more green than any other color in the spectrum,” said Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute. “As it has throughout history, multifaceted Emerald continues to sparkle and fascinate. Symbolically, Emerald brings a sense of clarity, renewal and rejuvenation, which is so important in today’s complex world. This powerful and universally appealing tone translates easily to both fashion and home interiors.”
