Help! Do these colors go together?

[Lynnsey]

I have an awful eye for color and what looks good together. I was originally thinking of dark red (almost crimson) and aqua/pale blue. Now I like the idea of the dark red with laveder. It's a summer wedding; will this work? I want red gerbera daisies and lavender roses, but I can't picture how they'd look together. Any other suggestions for a summer wedding? Thanks.

Do a search in this area for "color wheel". You'll have to sift through some posts, but someone posted a site that shows/lists corresponding colors.

I actually saw an episode of "Platinum Weddings" with this color combo, and somehow it worked.

They used a Tiffany Blue and white as the main colors, with accents of a rich red and red roses for the flowers. Since the red was an accent and not the dominant color, it worked really well... had a very fresh look to it. So it can be done...

I had a friend that used aqua and red....grey was an accent color...it was very pretty and unique....but so "them".....

I'm not sure I would like the red and lavender together...but that is just me...

*I think I saw on the cover of Martha Stewart Weddings the red and aqua color palette (it may have been last month, though)

Ooooh! Aqua and red! Aqua and red! It's so gorgeous together! I have pics somewhere. Let me find them sometime today and I'll post them.

I found some pictures of flowers that are red and purple they may not be the flowers wou want but you can get an idea of what they look like together. I think they go together really well but you have to see the pics to believe it

I think that lavander and red would look great together. My bed room is lavander and white and chocolate brown with red accents.
