You've already RSVP'd to that spring wedding invitation -- but you still don't have anything to wear. You've got to find an outfit that flatters the pink and orange undertones in your skin, while looking stylish for the season. Spring wedding colors are all about pretty pastels and romantic candy hues. Fabulous news, because these are the kind of colors that enhance your peaches-and-cream complexion. Wedding, whatever -- your "big day" is the shopping day.

Pastels

Try to think of a color that stands for spring, and the first hue to pop into your head is very probably a pastel. A pretty peach-skinned gal like yourself can play around with basically the whole pastel spectrum. Try on powdery purple, mint green, periwinkle blue or soft, pastel tangerine. At a spring wedding, you just can't go wrong with any one of these babies.

Florals

Take a cue from May flowers with a romantic floral hue. Flowery colors are a classic choice for a spring wedding, and pink florals especially will flatter your peachy skin. Light rose, pale petunia and bright tulip pink will all give your complexion a creamy perfection. Or wear something in marigold yellow to make your skin look warm and glowy.For something with a little more contrast against your skin, try on a bright lavender or violet.

Candy Colors

Sweet sugary shades are always in style for spring weddings. A bright candy pink color will play up the pink in your skin and add a healthy flush to your cheeks. Choose lemony yellow or juicy coral to enhance the orange tones in your skin for a warmer effect. Pale honeydew green will make your skin look extra creamy, while bright robin's egg blue will pack some major pop.

Sweet Neutrals

So this wedding is more of an elegant affair -- perhaps an evening ceremony or a ballroom reception. Not to worry, your peach complexion will look soft and dreamy in refined yet romantic neutrals. Pale neutrals with the softest pink casts -- think champagne, nude blush or palest salmon -- will all look luminous on your skin.
