Green Wedding Style Ideas

Green Wedding Style Ideas

Green, nature’s most abundant color, comes in over 300 shades and looks gorgeous when paired with complementary colors in the right tones. Symbolizing freshness, renewal and hope, it works well through the seasons from the dark evergreens of the winter to the bright, beautiful shades of the summer months. If you love the color like we do and want to show it off at your wedding, we’ve got some great green wedding style ideas you can use to polish your color palette.

Green Invitations

Every great celebration starts with an invitation that sets the tone for things to come. To showcase your green wedding style, choose quality paper and designs that will tie right into your fashions and decor. Here are just a few gorgeous examples that are elegant and romantic, ranging in shades from soft pastel to bold and vibrant.

Green Wedding Fashions

If you’re a bride, choose green dresses for your bridal party and wear green accessories, including shoes and jewelry. If you are a groom, get a green suit that complements your color scheme in a fabric and style that epitomizes your dress code. And don’t forget your furry friend if you have one. A collar of bay leaves or a green bow tie can make them a sweet addition in your green wedding style.

Green Wedding Decor

Once you’ve got your look in order, move to your ceremony and reception decor. Choose a bright green lawn as your aisle and an arbor bursting with greenery to walk under. And be sure to use flowers in soft shades so they won’t compete too much with your primary color. Then, set the tables for your celebration with green tablecloths, green glasses, and green accents. You can even serve a green cake and cocktails with lime or mint.
