So I love the colors chocolate brown, yellow and orange...not convict orange but you know a soft, coral orange. How can I use these colors for spring or would it be to fall-like and if NOT how could I use the orange and yellow together??? With maybe a darker color to pull away from the brightness of the Orange and yellow together.....

In my opinion, using chocolate brown, orange and yellow do say Fall. Are you set on brown or would you be okay with losing the brown and going with something that has more of a pop like orange and a fushia pink? On the knot, I've seen so many weddings done in these two colors and it was gorgeous. Or a turquoise blue and lime green.

To be honest, I wouldn't use all three colors together. The coral-orange and yellow will clash in all kinds of ways. I'd either use jusr brown and yellow, or just brown and coral-orange. Either way, you definitely want a darker color and a lighter color. For a more "spring-y" look, I'd go for brown and yellow. Not highlighter-yellow or primary-color-yellow, but a soft pastel yellow since it'll be spring and all. Good luck!

I do think the brown lends itself to fall. If you're omitting it, how about bright pink (fuchsia), yellow and orange? I was just in a wedding with those colors and as much as I thought it would look terrible, it was actually gorgeous, and everyone was commenting on our dresses and flowers.

Alternately, if you went with a tan or champagne color instead of a deep brown, it might work.

Definately the darker color like purple or maybe even black can help the orange and yellow stand out together.

those sounds like beautiful colors you can use them just fine. go the the flouriest shop and just take a look and the different oranges/browns/yellows they have and have them give you some suggestion on pulling those colors together, this day and age most people aren't so traditional on seasons you plan your day for you.

change chocolate brown to tan, coraly orange, yellow...tada. Spring

I tell all my brides to go to the hardware store and get paint chips in their colors. Put them together and make sure you like the look. If not sit and play until you do and take a few sets home with you. They come in handy to take with you shopping or to give to vendors when you want to know if something looks good or are trying to color match.

The colours are fine for spring, but only if you use the brown very sparingly, as an accent colour. Coral is a wonderful "new" colour, and I'm glad to see it back! It would be best paired with a soft yellow.

maybe use the brown as an accent. ribbon bows etc...
keep your oranges and yellows your primary colors.
maybe put some white in your bouquets... some greenery to pull it together.
i think they would look great together.
even your cake would look ok if you had maybe some brown accents with a top or waterfall effect of orange, white, and yellow flowers

Alot of dress companies have dresses that come with sashes. I think that David's Bridal has them. You could have yellow dresses with chocolate brown sashes or if that doesn't look good, you could do brown dresses with yellow sashes. I don't think that brown is a bad color for spring.

Chocolate was huge this spring, I don't really think it matters what time of year it is. If you like those colors then go for it. It's your special day, go with the colors you realy want!
