Jewel tones are here to stay. (Just ask Marie Claire.) The only rule? Keep it simple! These tones naturally provide a lush connotation, but coming on too strong can make you look more like a court jester than a queen. Jewel tones softened by various shades of cream, vanilla, and burlap mixed with less-traditional bouquets and table decor make up what I like to call The New Royals. These colors give a warm, elegant, and dynamic feel without being stuffy, presumptuous, or overdone. I’ve noticed that the idea of softening has been big this year as many brides make their weddings more intimate affairs and use many more hand-made accents. So fear not lovers of everything lush, you can still have your cake and eat it too. Just pair your favorite jewel tones with something softer, keep table decor minimal, and pull in natural or earthy accents for an unfussy, romantic air.
