Are you a bride-to-be planning your summer wedding? Do you want to stand out from the crowd and choose a colour scheme that's unique and refreshing? Look no further than gorgeous greens! Green is the perfect colour for a summer wedding, and it can be used in dresses, decorations, bouquets, table decorations, accessories, and everything in between. Here's our guide to incorporating gorgeous greens into your wedding day.
Choose your shades
Summer weddings are perfect for incorporating gorgeous greens, and there are plenty of shades to choose from. Consider using pale greens, olives, sage green, and eucalyptus. These colours are calming, refreshing, and evoke feelings of nature and the great outdoors. The best part is, they complement each other beautifully, so your bridesmaids can wear different tones of green that work together seamlessly.
Pick your wedding theme
Once you've decided on your colour scheme, it's time to pick your wedding theme. We suggest a stripped-back, natural aesthetic. This theme is all about simplicity, elegance, and a celebration of nature. Think lots of wood, soft greens, naked cakes, natural makeup, and handpicked flowers. Keep it simple and let the beauty of nature shine through.
Incorporate green into your dresses
Whether you're throwing a spring, summer, autumn, or winter wedding, bridal party dresses in shades of green are a beautiful option. They are especially stunning in summer as they contrast well with all the florals in bloom and the fresh greenery in nature. This versatile colour will work for any dress code and comes in tons of gorgeous iterations, ranging from deep emerald tones to pretty pastel hues.
Green decorations and accessories
Incorporate green into your wedding decorations and accessories. For decorations, consider using greenery to decorate the aisle, the tables, and the altar. You can use more natural greenery, such as vines or leaves, or use table runners in shades of green and different types of material to match the theme. You can also use greenery to create beautiful centrepieces or hanging installations.
For the accessories, you can add some green details through earrings, necklaces, or shoes to complete your bridal look. Even green hair pieces, such as emerald tiaras or baby’s breath can be used to tie the looks together.
Green bouquets
Green bouquets are a beautiful and unique choice for your wedding day. Consider using greenery as the main element in your bouquet, or mix in some white or blush flowers to add some contrast. A green bouquet is sure to stand out and make a statement on your big day, and can sometimes be cheaper! Plus, having a green bouquet filled with leaves and fir branches, for example, can be better suited to winter weddings when the florals are harder to find, but also be useful for summer brides who don’t like the overly floral look.
In conclusion, gorgeous greens are the wedding colour of the summer, and they can be used in dresses, decorations, bouquets, accessories, and everything in between. Embrace the calming beauty of nature and let green be the star of your wedding day. Are you planning a summer wedding? We’d love to help so get in touch today!
