In addition to its gorgeous hue, emerald green also pairs with other popular and classic wedding color choices such as rose, light pink and especially silver. 

Another color that continues to be a favorite for brides everywhere is lavender. Although most often seen at spring weddings, this year sees this elegant palette being a favorite in summer and early fall as well.

One of the biggest surprises for 2023 is the appearance of orange. 

Many brides will be making rust the centerpiece of their palette, while others will be adding bits of bold, bright orange for a pop of color.

Terracotta and sage continue to be the favorite foundation for bridal party attire. 

However, this year sees the earthy tones palette expand with the addition of sage green, taupe, cream and olive.
