Verona Sunset: Rental Picks & Design Tips to Incorporate 2025’s Wedding Color of the Year

Wedding planners and brides-to-be, get ready—2025 is bringing a vibrant splash of color to your big day with the Minted and Brides Wedding Color of the Year: Verona Sunset! This bold, cheerful orange captures the essence of an Italian sunset, blending warmth, vibrancy, and life. With the rising popularity of Italian aperitivi and the fact that Verona also serves as the romantic backdrop to Romeo and Juliet—adding an extra touch of magic to this already perfect choice, it was only natural to name this hue after one of Italy’s most iconic cities. If you’re looking to infuse your wedding with energy and style, Verona Sunset is about to become your new favorite color. From lively linens and standout florals to glassware and signage that demand attention, we’ve got everything you need to embrace Verona Sunset like a pro.

Drape in Sunset Splendor

Let’s start with linens—typically the blank canvas for your table settings. But with Verona Sunset, your canvas is anything but blank! Go all-in with punchy orange linens like Ali Tangerine, Tussah Sunset, Cotton Tangerine, or Reverie Social’s Velvet Rust and Layla Floral for a reception that feels warm, inviting, and undeniably stylish. Whether you’re planning an indoor affair or an outdoor garden celebration, this lively color instantly adds energy and personality to any venue.

For contrast, pair Verona Sunset with soft neutrals like Azores, Belfast Flax, Mila Woven White, or Calusa White for a chic, modern look. Want to have more fun? Add splashes of bright pink, coral, or teal—like Velvet Blush, Callie Dusty Rose, Ibiza Coral Napkin, or Bengaline Teal—to make your color palette pop. Don’t forget napkins! A subtle touch of Verona Sunset, like with Reverie Social’s Aruba Coral Napkin or Monaco Ginger Napkin, can tie the whole table together without overpowering the space.

Sip & Savor in Sunset Hues

Verona Sunset’s versatility extends to dishware, pairing beautifully with a variety of styles. For a luxe feel, opt for modern gold-rimmed plates like Waverly White & Gold China or Coupe Gold Band China. Want something more earthy? Choose chargers in warm orange-brown tones like the Tondo Charger, Boca Handwoven Natural Charger, or Winnie Natural Charger. Or go with classic white dinnerware, such as Oliver Pearl China, to let your bold linens and flowers take center stage.

For glassware, consider playful options like Debutante Amber Goblet or Fenton Amber Goblet to echo the punchy orange hue. If you’re looking for something subtler, clear, textured glasses like our Koda Ribbed Collection or Timeless Stemware will add depth without overwhelming the table. Bonus tip: serve a signature cocktail in an orangey hue (think Aperol Spritz!) for a cohesive, on-theme detail.

Lounge Under the Verona Sky

Your lounge area offers another design opportunity to showcase Verona Sunset. Think cozy seating with pieces like the Maxine Ivory Sofa, Serafina Cream Outdoor Sofa, or Fiona Blush Velvet Sofa as a neutral base. Then, layer on the color with patterned pillows such as Olive and Marigold, Retro Rust, and Reverie Social’s Velvet Magenta Pillow, Layla Floral Pillow, and Canyon Rust Pillow. Mix and match with complementary tones like fuchsia, mustard, or olive green for an eclectic, cozy vibe.

For a boho-chic aesthetic, bring in wood and rattan lounge pieces like the Timber Loveseat, Otto Side Chair, and Acadia Coffee Table to create a warm, earthy setting. Add metallic accents with copper or gold side tables like the Lena Single Panel Brass Side Table, Copper Martini Side Table, or Esme Marble Side Table. Complete the look with a chic area rug like the Edith Rust & Sage Rug for a space where guests will love to relax (and take plenty of selfies).

Toast to Tangerine Sunsets

Your bar is a major focal point, so make it unforgettable by incorporating Verona Sunset into its design. Consider a custom insert covered in bright orange linen for our White Versa Bar, or use a custom design decal on the Curved Madison Bar for a bold statement. Prefer a softer approach? Add pops of orange through floral arrangements or signage on our Wells Weathered Oak Bar.

And when it comes to drinks, let Verona Sunset inspire your cocktails too! Serve up orange-hued drinks like blood orange margaritas or peach bellinis. You can even use orange-tinted glassware to further incorporate the color or stick with clear glasses like our Colby Cut Crystal Stemware, letting the drinks themselves bring the bold hue.

Bold Blooms, Stationery, & More

Verona Sunset was practically made for vibrant floral arrangements. Imagine zesty orange roses, fiery dahlias, and cheerful marigolds cascading from bouquets, centerpieces, and floral installations. The color’s energy is so strong that minimal greenery is needed, though you can soften the palette with peach roses or cream-colored ranunculus for balance.

Set the tone early with bold stationery. Whether it’s invitations, menus, or seating charts, incorporating Verona Sunset will give your guests a preview of the vibrant celebration ahead. Think watercolor splashes of orange on place cards or menus with bold typography in gold and orange tones. Oversized signage in Verona Sunset hues is also a great way to direct guests to the bar, lounge, or dance floor while making a stylish statement.

Verona Sunset is here to shake up the wedding world in 2025 with its punchy, joyful energy—and honestly, we’re obsessed! If you’re ready to turn your big day into a sunset-soaked celebration, grab a glass of something bubbly (in an orange-tinted goblet, naturally) and start planning. Verona Sunset is waiting to shine, and your guests won’t stop talking about it for years to come!
