Emerald Green Forest Elopement Inspiration

Emerald Green Elopement Inspiration – CMSours Photography 10

Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall, the organic, jewel-tone of Emerald transcends the seasons. Whether you’re marrying in the Evergreen State or eloping amongst the jade-colored cacti of the desert, sparkling green Emeralds complement just about any natural wedding scheme.

Hailing from the Emerald City myself (Seattle, Washington – for our international crowd) I have a particular attraction to the organic, glimmering stone. Best representing the color of nature, what better hue to incorporate into your forest wedding? This woodsy elopement photographed by CMSours Photography is as rich and sparkling as the stone would suggest.

Nature-loving brides can find plenty of ways to incorporate Emerald into their wedding scheme – from a rich velvet bridesmaid dress to a geode cake, lavish decor and proper Emerald jewelry. We are particularly taken by the bespoke Emerald wedding rings by Dawes Design that add an organic pop of color for any forest bride.

From CMSours Photography

Emerald is often used as a winter wedding color because of its deep hue, but I know from my own birthday that Emerald is the birthstone for May when spring is transitioning to summer in full force! Emeralds can come in bright tones that beg to be paired with pinks, creams and of course, gold. This shimmery mix is the perfect reminder of all things in bloom after the rainy spring as well as the glow of the sun that makes every forest glitter in the summer season.

This romantic elopement shoot features a sweetheart table, geode cake, jewel tone bridesmaid dress and a stunning bride and groom. San Francisco designer Jennifer Dawes provided our amazing emerald pieces and the design by KLO Events uses that emerald green paired with spring pinks to really showcase the statement Emeralds bring to summer wedding design.
