most people have at least one other color that accents it. I think cream would look great! Or maybe a deeper color like purple get a swatch of the coral and put it next to other swatches and see what you like the most.

You don't have to have a certain number of colours. In fact you can just have the coral & use if its silver or gold for the accent. (Some folks base the copper, silver or gold metals from their wedding bands, yet it isn't a law that you must.)
Coral is a great spring or summer colour. If anything I would keep to using a cream or off-white or even white for the linens & have a mix variations on the flowers with tones of orange, coral/pinks, whites & make sure to have some greenery. If not, it would look way to bland & not the dream view you have.
Congrats & have a great time.

You can have as many colors as you want. But coral and yellow are nice, a light yellow. Or just have coral and white, coral is such a dominant color any other colors may look out of place. The flowers can be a mix of yellow, pink, white roses (beautiful) with lots of babys breath and long greenery. White linens for sure!

Coral is a good accent color. So, you could pick some more neutral colors to use... and then have everything accented by coral. My friend did that - she had the centerpieces in green, brown, ivory... and accented with coral, to match the coral bridesmaids dresses. She also wore a coral ribbon on her dress about halfway through the evening. It was quite nice.

If your planning the wedding yourself go with two, it will be easier to plan your flowers, bridesmaids colors, decorations, tuxes etc. If you hired a wedding coordinator try three. She should know exactly where to add the accent colors. To me, I like simple and elegant. Also, consider what color your dress is. If your wearing white, then pick your favorite color and go for it! My dd started with white and red, then choose a crimson instead of red for her winter wedding. The white makes everything clean and crisp! The men are wearing black tuxes, white shirts and crimson ties. Bridesmaids are wearing crimson dresses, white pearl jewelry and black shoes. It all looks quite nice together! Coral would look great against white! Simple and easy to design your decor!

Most people go with two. Me personally am going with three: black, pink and fuchsia because i couldn't decide between the pink or fuchsia. It's up to you. I wouldn't do any more than 3, and I would pick colors that are fairly close together. For coral I would do a pink or an orange.

Usually you would have some sort of accent color. I LOVE coral, great choice! If you want to go bold, pair it with aqua. If more conservative, maybe navy blue or just cream.
For flowers, I'd go with a mixed bouquet - both a variety of flowers and colors.

You can have whatever color(s) and however many you want.
If you want just coral, there you go.
If you want coral and another color, then go for it.
