What colors go with sage green for a summer wedding?

Question

Im getting married on July 6th, 09. Its a outside ceremony at sunset and the reception is going to be inside. Its up in the mountains. I would like to know if sage green is a summer color and what colors would go with it.

Answer 1

Congrats!! Ivory would be a pretty color.



Good Luck!

Answer 2

Sage Wedding Colors

Answer 3

Sage green would be beautiful in the summer. Very stunning in the setting you've described.



Accents could be:

Yellow

Pinks

Reds

Oranges

Purples

Gold

Silver

Chocolate or any brown



When you're trying to figure out what goes with green, consider this: Nature is mainly green. Any color God put with green is a color that will work well. Just look in the yard and find your answer. You're chosen a perfect color for an outdoor wedding.

Answer 4

I wouldn't mind forest green in the summer. I mean, the color IS inspired by shaded trees in a forest. If you live where there's snow, you don't see leaves in the winter-- only evergreens. I would do a bit of a muted forest green, though. Not too bright, but dark enough to make him happy. I'd pair it with something earthy, if that's your style. OR something with the color of a flower. Think of plant stems- some of those are a darker green as well, not light. You do not have to go with color "trends," since colors (unless they're crazy bio hazard neon green-brown-yellow, I don't even know HOW to explain it) all show up in nature somewhere. If you do nature-inspired colors, it could be a summer theme without actually being... a summer theme. We narrowed our color choices down to 2- Dark, forest green and medium-violet or, Ocean Blue and moss. We're leaning toward the first one. :-) And our wedding will be in the summer season.

Answer 5

Congratulations! It's sounds beautiful even with so little details, the sunset, the mountains! I think the sage green would be beautiful. I would pair it with off-white, yellow and possibly a shade darker or lighter green from the sage. I have a great site that I use for color inspiration, http://kuler.adobe.com. It's literally amazing!



Here are few color combos I picked from that site. You can type it in the search to see them :)



Winter Camouflage

Copy of zen and tea

calmness (there are several named this, 7th down, starts with dark blue and ends in pale yellow)

Washoe Approach



Best of Luck!

Answer 6

light yellow

light pink

hot pink

white

brown

tan or goldy brown

ivory

forest or dark green

Answer 7

Gurrl, somebody on here is lying. Brown and sage or celedone does not work. I had the honor of going to a wedding (my husband's best friend) and that girl had chocolate and sage or celedone with burnt orange and ivory accents. Everybody looked like they were visiting from a funeral home. Including my husband whos only 30. I talked about that chocolate brown tux and sage vest until he undressed before the pics. those colors were not complimenting at all. UGLY!



Im a planner and if i had a bride with sage i would recommend Ivory and gold or champaigne to accentuate sage or chocolate and ivory but the tux would have to have ivory vests or champaigne vests if you do sage vests dont have chocolate tux plleeaase. Sage is a soft color so try and stick with softer colors and it will all work out. It'll be georgeous!

Answer 8

I'd consider using a pretty coral and browns with it since it's an evening event.



Congrats & best wishes

Answer 9

That would be nice. How about yellow and white flowers? Or light blue?

Answer 11

Answer 12

Answer 13

Answer 14

Answer 15
