With the announcement of Taylor Swift's upcoming album (and subsequently, her new era), orange has emerged as the official colorwash, taking the throne as the new go-to hue. This is huge news for weddings, and if you're a Swiftie looking to incorporate "Taylor Swift Portofino Orange" into your big day, look no further.

1. A Yellow and Orange Ombré Bouquet
This brilliantly-colored bridal bouquet reminds me of a sunset with its yellow, orange, and red ombré pattern. What could be more perfect for a warm summer day? I also love that it incorporates elegant roses and playful billy balls together in the same floral arrangement.

Q: Do we need to explain to our ushers where to seat guests for the ceremony or can they just seat them at random?

The long, sun-drenched days of summer are so appealing for weddings. But before you plan an outdoor wedding during these steamy months, there are a few important things you need to keep in mind:

1. You'll need to book your date early. Not only is it the most popular time of year to get married — meaning the best venues book up quickly — but you're also going to be competing for your guests' attention; between vacations and other weddings, it pays to let your wedding VIPs know your date as early as possible so that they don't make other commitments.

Q: I was surprised to receive an invitation to a friend's wedding that was only addressed to me. She knows I'm engaged and has met my partner. Shouldn't their name be on the invitation as well?

Their adventure began in Telluride, Colorado, with a first look at the top of the Gondola. They spent the day exploring together before exchanging vows by a private lake. After sunset, they grabbed some spectacular photos before cutting their cake and signing their marriage license.
