Emerald Green bridal dress combinations for Walima

Hey Guys,

So as my search goes on, I have finalized my barat outfit but my in laws are still confused about the valima outfit so i’m taking some initiative to send my sister in law some pictures.

I am wearing my mother in law’s shadi ka set (that she saved for her son’s wife) which has gorgeous emerald green stones in it. So the outfit has to have a touch of emerald green in it but does not have to be a lot of green or like green mainly.

I need your help so please post pics of any recent bridals that you’ve seen (the long gown style shirts with a little bit of lehnga showing and stuff like that) that have emerald green and another color combination that you really like.

I am really counting on you guys because I know this place is the best source of information and you guys have always been extremely helpful :smiley: Thank you so much in advance :slight_smile:

Re: Emerald Green bridal dress combinations for Walima

dont have pictures of outfits, but here are some design boards showing emerald and various colours together so you can at least get an idea of what looks good with what-

eggplant or a lighter shade of purple and emerald is lovely - http://bios.weddingbee.com/pics/49286/6a010536f63a6d970b0115707e6a38970c-800wi.jpg

as is royal blue and emerald - http://www.weddingobsession.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/green-blue-gowns-elie-saab.jpg

emerald and aqua is gorgeous and unusual - http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-blqANOOEXyY/T2qKrKX6gtI/AAAAAAAAJT8/iAoJAkKNSBc/s1600/emerald+aqua.jpg

also like emerald with a paler green, and emerald and peach- http://lh6.ggpht.com/-aPQBJtDP_Qg/TeGJ7VPvK6I/AAAAAAAAAlo/qEwdcD9i-5M/summerbreeze-2011-05-10-14-32.jpg

emerald and fuschia is classic - dresserbridal: Image

Re: Emerald Green bridal dress combinations for Walima

aras, since it is a walima, go for something cream with the hint of emerald in the lining of the dopatta or a jamawar underskirt below lehnga in emerald.

ud look so so SO gorgeous in cream

Re: Emerald Green bridal dress combinations for Walima

demesne, you stole my words! :) cream and emerald look absolutely stunning together!

Re: Emerald Green bridal dress combinations for Walima

@marigold Thank you so much for the pics! I love the sana safinaz one with the navy and maroon dupatta!

@somegroovychick thanks so much for the boards...def some great ideas!

Dems I would look like a kaali bhens in cream....i'm not gorgeously fair like u and with my in laws being kashmiri as it is...I cannot take my chances even though cream and emerald would look grand!

I think i'm leaning towards either a peach and emerald green or the sana safinaz type with a maroon and royal blue type thing!

Keep the pics coming guys....you're awesome! :D

Re: Emerald Green bridal dress combinations for Walima

Aras huni u r so very beautiful m'A!...
And I've seen your engagement pic, (which you shared with us on watsapp)
Your complexion is perfect, I'd definetly bank on what dems has suggested.

Fawn, peach, creamy beige & off white with a touch of gold are great combos with emerald green.

Re: Emerald Green bridal dress combinations for Walima

But cream looks beautiful on all complexions! A golden-ish cream/ matte gold would be really pretty with emerald accents.

I love the cream and emerald green combo.! It will suit you.! Mashallah

Re: Emerald Green bridal dress combinations for Walima

peach and emerald green is always nice.

plum/purple/shocking pink could also look nice.

OR do ferozi/teal/green

Re: Emerald Green bridal dress combinations for Walima

Aras kuch bhi keh lo, cream / offwhite with muted gold kaam and a touch of emerald in the dobatta or rather the underskirt in emerald jamawar is the way to go. I would LOVE to see a good jamawar underskirt

A friend of mine did a plain underskirt/lehnga, with a heavily worked kameez, and this worked amazingly well and was within budget because of it. Also since you rarely wear lehnga again, I felt it paid off. even so I would suggest you go for a jamawar print on lehnga

And here is a green and cream option for you as well

Re: Emerald Green bridal dress combinations for Walima

I LOVE the lehnga in this green option. The lehnga and shirt are muted, and would make your jewellery pop. And makeup artists will make your complexion GLOW, regardless of whether you feel it is “fair enough” or not. What matters is a glow, not the amount of white chittapan

Re: Emerald Green bridal dress combinations for Walima

this is my fave and its by @yas :wub:


i know this is not a bridal but i love this combo of colurs!!

Re: Emerald Green bridal dress combinations for Walima

more options for u

Re: Emerald Green bridal dress combinations for Walima

^ that second last one is gorgeous! is it a bunto?

Re: Emerald Green bridal dress combinations for Walima

I love 1 and 5!! 5 looks like a bunto to me.

aras, whatever you do, please don’t go for the super matchy emerald green tie and pocket square for your hubby like in picture number 3. that looks a bit too matchy matchy imo.

Re: Emerald Green bridal dress combinations for Walima

^ I think a muted green tie would look better, preferably with a vest (three piece).

oooor imagine a cream sherwani with the slightest hint of pale green embroidery at the neck/shoulders, or a single emerald stone set in the place of the topmost button

I believe it's a copy of bunto. Not the original

Re: Emerald Green bridal dress combinations for Walima

omg that is a seriously hot sherwani. I like the whole ensemble - the chundri pagri with the raw silk tail (?) and the subtle embroidery on the sherwani. the only thing I don’t like is the weird kaam on the upper sleeve.
