In real rooms
Every room, each colorThe difference
Read from the numbersBride to Be is the lighter of the two at LRV 70.69, 19.5 points above Groundhog Day at LRV 51.2. Both read warm. Both belong to the pinks family. For a whole room, Bride to Be is the safer, more forgiving choice thanks to its higher LRV, while Groundhog Day is the bolder pick.
How they read
In their own wordsA warm pink with just enough grey to keep it adult, Groundhog Day turns afternoon light the color of the inside of a shell. Drenched across walls and ceiling it reads like aged plaster; used on a single wall it warms a room without ever announcing itself as pink.
Bride to Be is a whisper of pink folded into a warm off-white. At LRV 71 it is light enough to use as a whole-room neutral, and in most light it reads as a soft, flattering beige — the blush only shows when you put it next to a true white. It is the color of the inside of a shell.
