Trend watch: gen z yellow


Have you been seeing a golden, mustard like yellow color everywhere lately? Well, you’re not alone. Pantone named this color “Gen Z yellow” and it’s clear that celebrities and couples alike are obsessed with it. We can see why too, it pairs so easily with all kinds of different color schemes and adds a lighter, brighter, happier tone to any color palette it’s in.

Here is a bit different of an idea… The Color Condition supplies decor like that seen here. Want to dress up the ceiling of your venue or a certain area (over the head table, cake table, sweat heart table, etc.)? This is the perfect way to do that while also adding in the gen z yellow (and any others you want) into your decor!

Or like Simon Lee Bakery did here. We love the idea of doing this- it’s an extension of your color palette and shows that you really paid attention to and thought long and hard about even the smallest details of your big day (even if you didn’t necessarily spend that much time thinking about it).
