Viva Magenta! This Vibrant Editorial Embraces All Things Bright and Bold

Viva Magenta Electric Love

We’re mad for magenta!!!

Inspired by Viva Magenta 18-1750, the Pantone Color of the Year 2023, this vibrant shoot by Candace Holmstadt at 651 Studio Floral leaned into every loud and lovely detail. Just look at that explosive ceremony backdrop she created out of bright red and pink roses and magenta-fied greenery!

To Holmstadt the color Viva Magenta represents creativity, courage, and boldness. “This color means to be brave and fearless,” Holmstadt says. “It encourages celebrations that are joyous and optimistic!”

Together with event designer Naomi Anderson, Holmstadt made a magenta dream out of The Skyroom in Red Wind, Minnesota.

Let’s get our joy on and dig into this vivid design vision!!

A Bright and Bold Reception

This electric magenta design vision just begs for a festive custom pink neon sign and colorful seating chart. And the rich-hued floral installation at the bottom absolutely makes the look.
