Color Trend: Emerald Green

Jewel tones pop from wedding party to place settings

While soft neutrals and pastels continue to dominate those perennially popular rustic, beachy vibes at weddings far and wide, bold color choices just might be making a comeback. And there’s nothing like a gorgeous jewel tone to bring out the glamour and provide that pop in pictures.

We vote for a luscious, verdant emerald green, stunning on a variety of skin tones when worn and a perfect pairing for an exotic but earthy palette complemented by warm gold or burnt oranges in florals, dinnerware, centerpieces and more.
