Ombre can be translated into wedding details in a few ways. The first, an object is washed with a particular color, but the color’s intensity varies, therefore, it begins at its lightest and gradually becomes darker or vis versa. For example, the cakes in the montages below.

The second, many of one particular object have one color in common, but the color intensity varies and as a group they create an ombre effect. For example the pink macarons and aqua cupcakes, above.

The third, several of one particular object are similar in color, but vary in the intensity and are gathered in no particular order. For example the peach and purple bouquets from above. They vary in the shades of peach and purple, but are arranged in a way that does not create a distinct visual ombre effect.
