Hot Red and Green Wedding Items

by Jehnel on December 25, 2011

 

Red and green are beautiful colors and they carry themselves so well.  Whether you’re pairing a deep red with delicate lilac or a pastel green with bold navy blue, these two accommodating hues can achieve their own independence while complementing anything they’re matched with.

This time of year, however, when most people think of the colors red and green, they think of the Christmas holiday.  So, to carry on the spirit of the holiday season we’ve listed our favorite affordable red and green wedding items below.

“First Date” Surplice Dress by Soprano from Nordstrom

The perfect early fall/late summer bridesmaids dress; this garnet-colored piece is ideal for those casual-yet-chic affairs.  Leave it as is or add some simple accessories to finish off the look.

Sleeveless Stretch Satin Sheath Dress by Suzi Chin for Maggy Boutique from Nordstrom

Forget worrying about whether or not the mother-of-the-bride or groom should match the bridesmaids.  Let her have some fun and pick a fun color.  We love this deepened teal dress from Nordstrom.  It works well with any skin tone and its sheath silhouette is classic!

Converse Boy & Girl Chuck Taylor Originals from Macy’s

We always adore seeing retro Chuck Taylors in weddings.  Whether it’s on the bride, the groom, or the entire wedding party, it’s eye-catching and has style staying power.  Put your flower girl and/or ring bearer in this shoe and the guests will have one more thing to “aww” about.

Kids’ Stainless Steel Water Bottle from The Knot Wedding Shop

If you’re having relatively young attendants at your wedding, there’s a chance you’ll have a meltdown on your hands. To avoid this, give them a little present before the start of the ceremony or tell them that when they sit down in their seat, a gift or two will be waiting for them.  This adorable water bottle should hold them over and if mom or dad say yes, add some yummy juice to it (we recommend juices that are light-colored to prevent stains).

6-7mm Cultured Pearl and Ruby Earrings in Sterling Silver from Ross-Simons

You have the “something blue” so let your bridesmaids have that “something red.”  Rubies are timeless gemstones and their brilliance is the perfect accent.  They’re even more dazzling when paired with a complementary color such as black or even green.

Sage Swirl Note from Cardstore

This soft sage thank-you note is perfect for a spring or summer wedding, or even during fall or winter.  It’s very versatile and who says it has to be strictly for wedding stationery?  Its style is functional for any occasion that calls for a thank-you note so keep them handy for housewarmings or baby showers!
