Opal Wedding Inspiration That is Sure to WOW!

by Burgh Brides February 22, 2018

Taking inspiration from the iridescent sheen of a precious gemstone, an opal wedding is bound to win hearts.  Pink, blue, yellow, green, and even purple pastels come together seamlessly against a pale background in this pretty jewelry piece.  Given the various color tones, making this work for your wedding day is easy.  Rather than incorporating all of the hues, stick with your two or three favorites, mine being rose and lavender.  When it comes to wedding day fashion, keep things light and airy with soft, flowy fabrics that drape beautifully.  For a little extra glitz, look for dresses with a beaded bodice or belt, or wear statement jewelry with pearls and opaque rhinestones.  Upgrade to a pearlized paper for your invitations, menu cards, and other wedding stationery pieces for that hint of metallic this color combo so desperately needs.  Even your wedding cake can have a shiny finish!  A variety of flowers are at your disposal so pick your favorites and use a mix of colors from the palette to give life to the opal vibe.  Dreamy, feminine, and fit for a modern day princess, this opal wedding inspiration just might be a my new favorite!
