Emerald Green and Gold Wedding Inspiration

Are you looking for a regal color scheme for your wedding attire? Then emerald and gold could be perfect for you and your bridal party.

Emerald, named after the precious green gemstone, is a medium shade of green but can vary from bright to dark. Emerald is often associated with freshness and abundance in nature but, in years gone by, was also a symbol of prosperity. In fact, the emerald gemstone has long been considered a superior jewel.

Bright emerald looks fantastic against cool skin tones while darker emerald works better for warmer complexions. Ladies blessed with neutral skin can wear any shade of emerald and look amazing.

If you’re having trouble determining which shade of emerald flatters you best, take a look at the veins at your wrist. If they appear blue or purple, you have cool skin. If they appear green, you have warm skin. If the color is difficult to determine, you have neutral skin and can wear any shade of emerald you choose.

If you’re thinking about buying emerald and gold wedding attire, read on for some helpful hints and examples on what dresses might work best for your big day.
