During the season three premiere “Out of the Shadows,” Penelope Featherington gets frustrated by living at home with her sisters and becomes determined to find a husband this year. So, she ditches her signature citrus-colored gowns and tries out a new hairstyle for Lady Danbury‘s (Adjoa Andoh) ball.

A classical rendition of Gayle‘s “abcdefu” plays when Penelope arrives at the ball and reveals a dazzling, sophisticated dark green dress paired with sheer gloves. She catches the attention of fellow attendees — including her longtime crush and future husband, Colin Bridgerton.

After taking notes from Colin’s charm lessons, Penelope is finally able to speak more naturally with potential suitors during episode two. A cover of Jonas’ solo track “Jealous,” performed by Shimmer, plays as Colin watches with slight envy as Penelope converses with Lord Remington.

Just as Colin is about to finally ask Penelope if she feels the same way about him during episode three, he’s interrupted by Lord Debling (Sam Phillips) whisking her away to dance. As the pair dance to the Vitamin String Quartet’s cover of “Happier Than Ever,” Colin watches on with jealousy.

Episode four culminates in Polin finally getting together, to the tune of a stripped-down version of “Give Me Everything” by Archer Marsh.

After Lord Debling rejects Penelope, she promptly leaves the ball distraught. Colin runs after her carriage and finally admits that he has feelings for her, too.

Then, Penelope tells Colin that she’d like to be more than friends and they have a heated makeout session in the carriage. When the carriage arrives at the Bridgerton home, Colin asks Penelope to marry her.

In episode six, Thomas Mercier’s cover of “Thunder” plays in part during an interaction between Violet and Marcus, and continues when Francesca Bridgerton (Hannah Dodd) and John Stirling (Victor Alli) announce that they plan on getting married.

Vitamin String Quartet’s cover of Coldplay’s hit song “Yellow” plays as Penelope walks down the aisle at her wedding.

The song is a fitting, spot-on choice, considering that the citrus shade was most associated with Penelope before her season three transformation.
