Short answer
Green wedding colour schemes use shades of green as the base, from sage and eucalyptus to deep forest and olive. They pair beautifully with white, cream, blush, gold, or terracotta. Green suits outdoor, rustic, botanical, and eco-friendly weddings.
Green is a wonderfully flexible colour for a wedding. You can build a whole scheme around one shade, like sage, or mix several greens for a layered, natural look. Sage green with white and cream feels soft and romantic. Forest green with gold and burgundy feels rich and traditional. Olive green with terracotta and rust has a warm, Mediterranean feel. Eucalyptus green with blush pink is fresh and modern.
Think about where the green will appear. Bridesmaids' dresses, groomsmen's ties, and stationery are easy places to start. Table linen, napkins, and chair covers can carry the colour too. For flowers, eucalyptus, ferns, ivy, and olive branches all bring green in naturally. You could also use potted herbs or topiary as centrepieces. If you want a more muted look, use green in the foliage and keep everything else neutral. If you want it bolder, use deep green velvet or painted furniture.
Green works for every season. Pale greens suit spring and summer. Darker greens suit autumn and winter. It also pairs well with many accent colours, so you can adjust the mood without changing the whole scheme. Whether your venue is a barn, a garden, or a city hall, green will feel grounded and calm.
