Hello ladies!

Here is one of my bm on the left and the moh on the right. My theme is ROMANCE so I chose red and had the ribbons on the two dresses in black....I LOVE THEM!!!!

But anyways, my question is, I edited the pics and put the bo-ks that i had picked in the pictures...I don't really know how I like them together...any suggestions/comments? Thanks girls!!!

ets: only difference will be instead of a white wrap at the bottom it's a shear red ribbon with a little shine to it...

i dont want you to hate me but i think i see what you are saying

your dresses are red and black and to have the lightness of the cream roses and the wrap are just distracting me from everything else

if i was worried and it was my dresses/flowers, replace the cream with black and maybe dark red roses to make it flow

are you guys serious? i dunno, there is something off to me about the way the red and the cream go with the black bows on the dress...would it be wierd if he tied the bottom with a black satin ribbon?

OK- I looked at the pic again- I kind of see what you are saying but I really think its one of those things only you will notice. But if you were really concerned what about wrapping them in the red satin. I am not loving the black satin- reminds me of memorials.

ets: I am really tired- you already said that in your post! Sorry!

Could you do red and black ribbon? (Check out my chat avatar~~ it looks great with the two different ribbons..at least I think they do!

My only suggestion would be to switch the ribbon and you already thought of that. It seems to me that you are not satisfied with the cream. Maybe make them all red or find two shades of red and mix them.

i really didn't pick up on the whole black/cream thing at all. but if it's bothersome to you, how about mixing a thin black ribbon into the wrap, so that the wrap will look like the dresses?

I like the idea of two ribbons. Just black might be kind of daunting for a wedding. I also would suggest two different kinds of red since you don't like the cream (I agree by the way!)

thank you girls for all your input! so i told them more red than cream in the bo-k and they're going to put a very thin black insert with the red around the bottom...hopefully it'll look okay...oh brother!

I love the flowers, but agree with a bunch of other to change the cream ribbon!

I really like the combo azad - I agree with the quote above - the 2 ribbons would be great
