Silver medals may mean second place, but the color's certaintly a winner. Glamorous, sophisticated, and celebratory, silver's absolutely stellar. The color lends itself to classiness and prestige, but sparkling and glittering renditions can also be fun and flirty. What's great about silver is its versatility, mixed with its steady and surefire timelessness. Experiment with the shade and you won't be disappointed—it's a classic for a reason. But before you hop on the silver bandwagon, expand your imaginatory horizons.

Formal, vintage, modern, rustic—any wedding theme can benefit from a sprinkle of sheen. Feeling stuck on how to utilize the color? Look no further than these ideas. Silver's the perfect big-day muse, and we've got the examples to prove it. Ahead, creative and genius inspiration for infusing silver into unexpected details. From accessories to décor and everything in between, here's how to give your wedding the silver treatment.
