I received tons of compliments on the color choice for our November wedding....
Green!  I chose it because green is a fresh vibrant color that is fairly easy to incorporate.... after all, so much in nature is naturally green!
Here is how we added green..... hopefully not "overkill"!

I chose green because it is my favorite color in the whole world! It is fresh, natural, and symbolizes growth and vitality--to me anyway!

I have been in love with the green & fuchsia combo for along time!  Also, my eyes are green and it's a color I tend to look good in...or "around" in this case since I will be in my wedding dress : )

I chose green because....it was the first colour to pop in my head when he proposed.  And I can't shake it, but somehow my mind keeps adding accent colours.  Thank gawd I stopped at 3, LOL. 

Plus, it will look gorgeous on the beach...Not washed out, but not so bright as to blind the guests at my wedding. :)

Its my favorite color.  Its modern, clean and sophisticated.

It is so fresh and I LOVE green flowers, especially roses!

It is so fresh!  I love the contrast between Apple Green and my other colors. :)

We picked green for a few reasons - we both love it, it looks great with my white dress and his black tux, and we are getting married outdoors at a winery where there will be lots of green! :)

green is FI's fav color and that was one of his requests/demands, initially I wanted pink...but after seeing so much fabulous green inspiration I was happily willing to give in to his demand :-)

Actually my FI chose our wedding colors...he did not want any girlie colors(ie pink, purple)...and we both saw apple green and black together and feel inlove with the colors...apple green, black, and ivory
