Bridesmaids Dress Breakdown

I am having a nervous breakdown regarding my bridesmaid dresses.

I originally ordered them in a dark brown and now I am thinking maybe I should have ordered them in a champagne color....

I keep second guessing everything.

Thoughts on Dark Brown compared to Champagne??

I love dark brown - that is the color that I plan on getting my BM dresses in! Don't second guess yourself - if that is what you picked first there was obviously a reason for it!

Re: Bridesmaids Dress Breakdown

Yea your right....I just called so it is too late to change the color so the option is out even if I decided to....I am going to post pictures and their BOK to get some opinions.

Re: Bridesmaids Dress Breakdown

im sure the brown will be fine! IMO, champagne is more of a spring color

i debated between dark brown and burgundy for my november wedding and ultimately went with burgundy

Ok here is the dress in the color and their BOK. The black around their BOK is gonna be the same material and color as their dresses with the crystal wrap on the bottom.

Honest Opinions please?

I don't know why I just second guessed myself.

Re: Bridesmaids Dress Breakdown

it's really a great color brown - it's dark but not 'too' dark

i think you're fine - i find myself second guessing my decisions ALL THE TIME!

I think that is going to look beautiful together and its a great color for the fall. Dont second guess yourself. (even though i do with everything! lol )

Don't stress! It looks nice in that color. Just relax and feel confident in your decision.

I can't stress anymore...the colors can't be changed.

It will look GORGEOUS together!! Perfect for fall too. I think brown will really complement the colors in the bouquet and the bouquet will stand out against the dress. IMO, the champagne would not have stood out at all. It will be beautiful, no reason to second guess!

i think brown is a wayyyy better choice. champagne is too close to white if you ask me

stop second guessing yourself!

Dark brown is the way to go for November. Just think of second guessing yourself as having a 2nd choice. You made a 1st choice for a reason! Champagne is definitely better for spring/ summer.

I think the brown is perfect! Champagne looks totally washed out in photos. Your choice is a great one!

You will see it LIVE!! You can tell me the day of

Your right...I was initially going for the dark romantic colors and it was my first choice for a reason. I started looking at shoes for bridesmaids and thats what sparked this whole thing.
