BM DRESS COLORS/OPINIONS

My gown is white with platinum, would I be able to get away with a color other than silver/platinum for the BM's or am I stuck with it? Also, will it look funny if it is a different shade of silver/platinum than my gown?
I have been looking alot lately, and I haven't seen anything that would look good with my gown.

Re: BM DRESS COLORS/OPINIONS

well, since your wedding is in the winter, I would say go with a darker color. Something bold...perhaps a red. Maybe pewter would look nice also.

What about black? I think it would look really pretty with your dress.

Re: BM DRESS COLORS/OPINIONS

I know, that seems to be one of my only other choices, but my sister is getting married before me and her girls are wearing black, so I don't want to
have the same color as her BM's. II am afraid I will be stuck with silver... Not much of a choice.

I think a red or burgandy would be nice. There are so many different shades I am sure you will be able to find something to go with it. Your dress is beautiful. So different.

Assuming that the beading on your gown looks more silver than gold (I can't tell looking at this pic...I must be seeing things

) you can always do a blue and silver theme, since blue and silver go so nicely together...just a thought!

Beautiful gown, btw!

I say a deep red or a deep wine type color.

Re: BM DRESS COLORS/OPINIONS

I am so glad you all think that I can go with another color other than silver, I think the BMs will look all washed out in such a pale color. I loved my dress though and I didn't consider everyone else when I bought it. What about a icey blue or pink?
