While there are wedding dresses out there decked from head to toe in emerald, you may not want such a bold and non-traditional gown. For just a splash of this deep, soft green, tie an emerald sash around your waste. Then, you’ll have the same color theme on your dress that’s seen throughout your wedding.

For full-emerald dresses, leave that to your bridesmaids. Since emerald complements nearly every skin tone, your friends won’t be disappointed with this color choice.

Wear emerald shoes for a pop of color. As you walk down the aisle or shimmy the night away on the dance floor, guests will get the occasional glimpse of green.
