Browns with Blues

While blue didn’t take home the Color of the Year title, it’s still the darling of the design world—and for good reason. Especially when paired with Mocha Mousse, blue (especially cornflower blue!) brings a soft, calming energy to balance the rich, inviting warmth of this chocolatey brown. Together, they create an effortless palette, perfect for a serene beachside wedding or a tranquil celebration filled with elegance. This pairing is proof that opposites really do attract.

Combine Mocha Mousse with dreamy hues like Pantone’s viola and rose tan, and you’ve got yourself a color pairing straight out of a fairytale. These soft purples and pinks bring a delicate, feminine touch to Mocha Mousse’s warm earthiness, creating a look that feels like an enchanted stroll through an old-world rose garden. The balance of whimsy and romance is pure magic, perfect for a wedding that whispers timeless elegance while keeping it fresh and modern. It’s Victorian romance novel vibes, reimagined for your big day.

Browns with Greens

Pairing Mocha Mousse with green tones like Pantone’s tendril and willow is the epitome of natural, cozy, and earthy vibes. These soft, moody greens seamlessly echo Mocha Mousse’s grounded warmth, creating a palette that feels lush, organic, and undeniably sophisticated. Imagine delicate brown accents nestled among cascading greenery for a timeless and fresh wedding design. Whether your vision is a cozy garden celebration or a refined outdoor affair, this pairing is earthy perfection.

Browns with Other Neutrals

When it comes to timeless elegance, you can’t go wrong with Mocha Mousse paired with other neutrals. Pantone’s gardenia (a soft cream) and cobblestone (a muted gray) bring a delicate balance to Mocha Mousse’s warmth, creating a look that’s simply classic. This palette is perfect for chic minimalism, providing a refined canvas for show-stopping florals and luxurious textured décor. The result will be sophistication that radiates understated beauty.
