Whether you favor shades of emerald, sapphire, ruby, or turquoise, incorporating jewel tones into your color palette is an easy way to make your wedding feel more elegant. There's a reason why this color family is so popular—there's a way to include these tones at nearly any wedding reception, but we particularly love when couples use them in their centerpieces. From deep greens to vibrant reds, jewel tones represent a wide variety of shades, which means it couldn't be easier to add gemstone-colored blooms to your floral arrangements.

What we love most is how unexpected and romantic a jewel-toned centerpiece can be. Just look to this Molly Taylor + Co. arrangement—which featured stems in every color from fiery red to pale yellow—for serious jewel-toned inspiration. Even the glassware was selected for their gemstone hues, and they were a beautiful complement to the dahlia centerpieces.

What we like best about flowers done in jewel tones is that they're incredibly versatile. Depending on what you pair these gem-colored flowers with, the hues can brighten up a spring arrangement or feel moody enough for a fall or winter wedding. Another benefit of this color palette? Many different flowers are naturally available in these shades, which makes it easy to select the blooms that are right for your day. For a classic event, there's nothing more fitting than a traditional red rose. If you're throwing a modern wedding, look for vibrant blue anemones to feature in your reception arrangements. They even work well for nonfloral centerpieces. A statement candle or charger in one of these pretty hues will elevate any muted décor.

If you're excited about adding these rich, luxe tones for your reception, you're going to love the beautiful jewel-toned centerpieces ahead.
