I'm a wedding photographer so see alot of weddings. The colors that come to mind for me are bright pink, bright orange, yellow, Bright blue, and white. I've seen these used in bouquets and they're gorgeous together. I'd do a floral arrangement in these colors for the topper and use ribbon in the brights to border the base of each tier.

Any color that "awakens" my eyes. Mostly brights but some subdued colors could be considered bright depending on background. Good luck!

I think of tangerine gerbera daisies and sunflowers and watermelon (the fuschia-pinkish red color not the fruit)..lol..

Small bright flowers peeking through the green grass; clouds in a blue sky;a tiny bright red ladybug; the orange glow of a jack o'lantern in the dark...
I hope the answers you get will help.

Look at the cakes at www.coriscorner.com. She has some very creative ideas using bold and cheerful colors.

Oh, man! I looked at coriscorner, and I agree with kerririchards. Most people would probably agree that her color sense is bright and cheerful! Check out the girlsbirthdaytiers section...
Thanks for the link, Kerri! thumbs_up.gif
