Tip #1: Book a perfect dusty blue venue on Peerspace

Our first tip is to find the perfect dusty blue wedding venue for your big day. Luckily, Peerspace makes it easy to find exactly what you are looking for! On Peerspace, you can find venues that are customizable to any wedding color scheme.

To find the right venue for you, go to the Peerspace homepage and type in your event, in this case, wedding, and the city you live in. From there, you’ll be met with plenty of great options! You can further narrow down your search with keywords and filters.

For example, you can use the keyword “blue” or sort by venues available for over 100 guests. Wondering what type of spaces you’ll find during your Peerspace search?

Ahead, we share a few examples of wedding venues available on Peerspace from around the U.S.!

We absolutely love the dusty blue booths and bar chairs in this classy Chicago restaurant and bar! This venue is a fantastic choice for a laid-back reception and even includes a beautiful outdoor beer garden with picnic-style seating.

Lofty and gorgeous Manhattan nuptials

This historic townhouse loft in NYC’s Greenwich Village offers so many stunning settings for enjoying your dusty blue wedding. It has space for 100 guests and includes a 2,500-square-foot Great Room with double-height ceilings, a 500-square-foot Garden Room with a fireplace, a private rooftop, private entrances, and more.

We love how the lighting at different times of the day gives the townhouse loft a dreamy dusty blue hue, perfect for your wedding theme. Be sure to take a good look at all the photos on the Peerspace listing page to imagine all the possibilities! The setting and service here happen to make it a popular venue option for all types of weddings, according to our Peerspace reviewers.

Here’s one example: “We hosted our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour at 45 Downing, and it was spectacular. This space is such a hidden gem in the heart of the West Village – it’s full of beautiful art and sculptures, and provides the most magical backdrop for our wedding. . Cynthia was incredibly helpful during the booking process, and the events team threw a wonderful cocktail hour. Our guests were raving about the passed hors d’oeuvres.”

Tip #2: Decide how much dusty blue is too much dusty blue

Dusty blue is a beautiful choice of wedding color. But you can have too much of a good thing! Make sure you don’t use so much dusty blue in your wedding. It can make everything blend together or make it hard to appreciate the subtleties and beauty of you, your wedding venue, and the countless hours you spend on deciding the perfect decorations and decor.

For example, if you are using dusty blue linens on the table, it might be better to use complementary colors of dusty blue for the plates, napkins, and chair ribbons around the tables. Or if your bridesmaids’ dresses are dusty blue, consider asking them to wear different colored jewelry.

Tip #3: Choose your dusty blue color palette wisely

So what colors can you use to compliment your dusty blue wedding decor and theme? You can find some great options for dusty blue wedding color combos on Pinterest and other websites, like this one! It can be really helpful to use these color palettes rather than creating your own — that way you can rest assured your colors will match perfectly.

For an outdoor wedding, we especially love the idea of coordinating dusty blue shades with tones and colors found in nature. Then, you can incorporate natural greenery and flowers to make those dusty blue colors truly pop!

Want to up the sophistication level? Then consider throwing a jewel toned wedding!

Tip #4: Be clear with your bridesmaids about their dress options

If you are asking all your bridesmaids to buy the same dress, you will already know the color of each dress will match to a T. However, if you have tasked your bridesmaids with buying their own, unique dresses, make sure you are clear with what you mean by dusty blue.

It could be helpful to send them swathes of your color choice or even go with them when they go to pick out their dress. If they are ordering a dress online, ask them to order well ahead of time and select a dress from a vendor they can return their purchase to if needed.

That way, you can feel comfortable letting them know if the color or style of dress isn’t going to match your dusty blue wedding theme and they still have enough time to return the dress they bought and find another one. 

Tip #5: Be picky with your dusty blue decor

When you set a dusty blue wedding theme, it can be tempting to buy every cute dusty blue wedding decor item you find. However, this can clutter your venue and drain your bank account. Instead, decide on the types of decor items you need for your wedding first. Then, start looking for those items in dusty blue.

It can also be helpful to choose your venue on Peerspace first. The space may already come with dusty blue decorations that you can rent as Peerspace add-ons so you don’t have to go out and buy your own!
