Pantone’s Color of the Year for 2026 is here—and it’s a dream for waterfront weddings. Meet Cloud Dancer, a soft, serene white that feels effortlessly elegant against the natural beauty of Maryland’s Eastern Shore.

You’ve planned every dreamy detail—but have you planned how your wedding morning will feel? Before the vows and celebration, the quiet start to your day sets the tone for everything that follows.

If you’re anything like me, you’ve got 37 screenshots of color palettes saved on your phone… and zero clue which one to commit to. Been there.

As a Maryland-based wedding planner, I’m seeing some really exciting shifts in how couples are choosing to celebrate—think: more meaning, less fluff, and a whole lot more personality!
