Pantone 2018 Color of the Year Ultra Violet

Last week we patiently held our breath to find out the color of the 2018 year, and Thursday Pantone announced the color Ultra Violet. 

"A dramatically provocative and thoughtful purple shade, PANTONE 18-3838 Ultra Violet communicates originality, ingenuity, and visionary thinking that points us toward the future. Complex and contemplative, Ultra Violet suggests the mysteries of the cosmos, the intrigue of what lies ahead, and the discoveries beyond where we are now. The vast and limitless night sky is symbolic of what is possible and continues to inspire the desire to pursue a world beyond our own."

We could not wait to roundup some ideas from four Santa Barbara Wedding Style real weddings to show you how you can infuse the mysteries of the cosmos into your wedding day.
