Sage green has quickly become one of the most popular wedding colours... and for good reason. This muted, natural shade is elegant, versatile, and effortlessly modern. Whether you're planning a countryside wedding or a contemporary celebration, sage green works beautifully across everything from your florals to your stationery.
In this post, we’ll explore how to incorporate sage green into your wedding day with inspiration for your wedding invitations, styling touches, and decor details.
1. Sage Green Wedding Invitations
Your invitation sets the tone for your entire day. A sage colour palette pairs beautifully with off-white textured card, soft fonts and botanical illustrations.

Add soft finishing touches like sage wax seals or envelope lining to complete the look.
2. Florals & Table Styling
Sage works as both a base and an accent colour. For a fresh, seasonal look:
-
Pair with ivory and blush florals
-
Use eucalyptus, olive branches, or dusty miller for greenery
-
Incorporate textured linens or ribbons in similar tones
Layering soft neutrals with pops of white, apricot or gold can create a romantic and refined table-scape. Sage green napkins, menu cards, or place names add cohesion and subtle luxury.
Explore our Place Cards and Table Name Cards to match.
3. Venue Decor Ideas
Sage green suits a variety of venues.. from barn weddings and garden marquees to modern city spaces. Try:
-
Draped sage green fabrics over ceremony arches
-
Sage chair sashes or runners for a coordinated reception space
-
Wax seal accents on Order of Service booklets
The key is balance. Use sage as a soft contrast to wooden textures, stone details, or minimalist backdrops.
4. Bridesmaid & Groomsmen Style
Sage is an increasingly popular colour for bridesmaid dresses... its flattering on all skin tones and blends well with seasonal florals.
For groomsmen, sage green ties, pocket squares, or even linen suits can bring the colour theme into the wedding party attire without being overpowering.
