With a rainbow of colors available to us, I often feel like it is a different language all in of itself when trying to convey your idea on what color you are choosing to accent or decorate your event. I say this because one persons pink will be another persons rose. One persons lilac is another persons periwinkle. One persons red is another persons burgundy.


- use vendors whose color charts you are familiar with
- see the product in person
- request a sample/swatch
- for Internet products, order just one to see in person
If none of these options are available then I suggest prayer…and little faith:)
***NOTE: Whenever possible, always plan in advance so you avoid last minute purchases. This way if you receive a product that does not meet your criteria, then you will have enough time to return or exchange it.
