With the popularity of reality wedding shows, more and more couples are looking to have stylish weddings that are on trend.

Colors such as emerald green, ruby red, deep purples and navy blues are starting to make their way into the wedding industry as well. Recently, David’s Bridal launched a line of bridesmaid’s dresses in jeweled tones and other designers are catching on to the trend. In fact, Pantone has named emerald green as the color of the year for 2013! There is no doubt that couples everywhere will be incorporating this deep green into their wedding color schemes this year. 

What theme can you use with this color scheme? Peacock inspired wedding designs are right now! Peacock feathers make a perfect addition to bouquets and headpieces.
