PLEASE help me decide on BM colors/dresses! POLL!

OK..here we go.. so I will post a pic of my gown first so you'll get an idea of which BM dress looks best with mine. Please note that the color in this pic of my gown is not the color I will be wearing the day of. The color of my gown is actually a light gold. I FOUND a PIC of the color my gown is it's a champagne color (light gold) please see here:

Here is my gown (note my color will be a light gold

For the BM's first we have the Ruby colors of which I would be having my MOH wear the dress in all ruby and the other that is both grape and ruby the other girls will be wearing

Then we have the browns which I like for the season.. I just can't make up my mind here ladie. The MOH would be wearing the one with the ruffle and the others.. you get the idea..

Here we have the Apple's MOH in the sleek strapless and the others in the ruffled dress

Here are the Merlot colors

im not sure you could go wrong with any of the choices, they are all really pretty, but i voted for the first, the ruby/grape.....so rich and i think it would be beautiful with your light gold gown

I voted for the first because those colors will look elegant against your golden dress!!!

I like the shades of brown. I think they will blend well with your light gold gown. IMO the reds will draw too much attention away from your dress.

Re: PLEASE help me decide on BM colors/dresses! POLL!

I love the colors in the ruby - but that Apple MOH dress matches your REALLY perfectly, and I LOVE the BM dress with the ruffled skirt.... But I'm going with the ruby/grape combo. I do love the idea of doing the brown with your dress being light gold because of Fall... hey , wait, that's what I'm doing!

OK, so I'm not too much help b/c I like them all....

In my experience, merlot washes a lot of people out. Browns and burgandys tend to compliment many more skin tones.

Re: PLEASE help me decide on BM colors/dresses! POLL!

Sorry to be a pain ladies.. and thank you for all your opinions! I think the top two is the Grape/Ruby and the second is the browns. but here is the issues on each: the Ruby/Grape color I don't want to over power my gown or take away from it.. and then with the browns it would mesh well together but I feel the browns with light gold would look to drib drab. I am feeling like the ruby colors are the way to go.. more color.. UGH.. I'm not sure..I guess I am going to have to physically go to the place where I bought my gown and hold up those two colors against my dress and be able to TRULY see what looks best.. .

FYI - the poll results show the Ruby/Grape colors are top choice then the browns and apples then merlot was last!

THANKS LADIES!!
