Inspiration and Ideas for Emerald Green and Blue Wedding
In your bridal ensemble
Be bold with the blues! Most wedding gowns use pastel blue accents and trimmings, but why not go for trendy teal floral appliques adorning the back of your dress? Then continue the mod statement with matching teal bridal shoes!
Bring in the green via a unique wedding ring, featuring sparkling blue sapphires and emeralds all in a row; complemented by a stunning pair of green gemstone drop earrings set in white gold or silver. Your bouquet of white and green blooms can be trimmed with a bright blue wrap. And for your bridesmaids, consider a chic contrast of sassy short dresses in emerald and cobalt blue.
In your reception decor
All eyes will be on your wedding cake if you wow guests with a creation in kelly green and teal, with a sprinkling of silver. Then you can cool things down with refreshing blue mojitos garnished with mint as your signature drink, and adorable table centerpieces featuring bottles in sea glass green!
In your wedding stationery
From your invitations to your ceremony programs, from the escort cards, place cards, and table menus to your favor tags and thank-you notes, call on the same color duo of blue and green to carry on the fresh and elegant look throughout!
