What do you think of sage green for a wedding color?

I love the color red, but it'll be a spring wedding, so I don't want to do red. Also because some friends just used that color for their wedding.


My fiance's favorite color is green and I think that works well with the season. Except I read that green is associated with envy and immaturity. Would you think that if you went to a wedding with a green theme? What other color(s) could I combine it with?

Red is so overdone anyway! You don't want that! Haha. As far as green is concerned, it looks really great with a complimentary shade of purple. Another great color combo is fuchsia/white(or ivory)! Try the website listed under "sources", too! I also know that Impressions has a gorgeous new swatch of colors available for Fall 2008!





Happy hunting!
Reply:Sage is beautiful for a wedding, don't read so much into what colors mean...nobody's thinking about that but the people who read too much Bride's magazine. And consider the source, weddings have been the same for hundreds of years, they've got to find SOMETHING to fill the pages between advertisements (even though there are so few).





Lilacs would look pretty next to your sage, but you can put almost any color flower with it and it'll be amazing. fuscia Stargazer lillies, Orange Tiger lillies...you can use such cool colors next to the sage and your pictures will be awesome.





Don't overthink every detail and the meaning of every grain of sand...you'll drive yourself crazy.





Relax and have a beautiful wedding.
Reply:Sage, cream, and chocolate would look lovely. Don't worry about what the colors mean, worry more about the skin tones of your bridesmaids and the time of day to determine if that color is right for you. :-) And -- I think if you want red, you should have red! I have been to three weddings who went black, white, and red; one was in the winter, one in the spring, and one in the summer. Enjoy your big day!
Reply:before my guy said he wanted a medieval theme I wanted a sage green wedding and i looked into it, lilac or lavender looks great with it, though i found it looks best as the accent color. but since you don't like purple 'see i did read your question' light and cool blues would work in place of the purples, just remember to keep it light as sage is a nice grounding color. A good thing you might want to do is find the flower you want and use that color,
Reply:I love sage! I started off wanting sage and then I went darker because one of my girls didn't think that she'd look good in light green (that's a whole other story though). Now, clover, lavender and white are my wedding colors! I think that they'll look beautiful... I've had some opposition from my family regarding the colors, but they'll see that it will be great. I'll send you some links of what were doing. I hope this helps! Just go with what you want and you won't have regrets. Best wishes!

Reply:I love the color sage and yellow would be a good color to work with sage. I was going to suggest lilac since that is one of my fav. colors and would go great with sage, but since you don't like that color then I would suggest yellow, peach and coral.
Reply:I love green and for a wedding sage green is a beautiful color!! I don't think it's associated with envy or immaturity, neither do I think when people do to a wedding they will think that. I think the sage green goes nice with a nice brown.
Reply:Sage is a very beautiful color and don't worry about what they say the color means as long as you like it, then that's all what really matters.
Reply:Great choice! It looks so eco-friendly! The theme can be "go green". I would do sage green and silver.
