Bridesmaids Dress - Color??

we finally found a bridesmaids dress, but now have to decide on the color. the store had no swatches at all, so the only color i saw it in was 'berry.' has anyone ordered a JASMINE dress in any of the following colors:

peony
hot pink
bordeaux

this is the dress, btw, and the berry color online is not at all what it actually looks like.

JASMINE DRESS L3008

thanks,
deb

go to another bridal store and see if they have swatches. Thats crazy that they don't have swatches! I would be nervous ordering a dress from a place that couldn't even show me what it will look like.

Check the swatches! The colors on their site are a bit different. The bordeaux is very dark purple. In the chiffon it had a black tinge to it, not sure what the satin is like. I was stuck between bordeaux and two other colors which that dress doesn't come in. The peony in chiffon was darker, more red. I really don't trust the pics on their site!!

i called a different store (RK Bridal) and they said that they have this dress and the color swatches, so i'm going to check it out next weekend. i'm just psyched i found a style everybody likes - figured that would've been the hard part!

yeah, the website really alters the color quite a bit... i'll see the swatches in person next weekend. i'm hoping the peony will look good in the satin!

btw, i looked at your albums... you look gorgeous in EVERY dress you tried on!!! love them all! my wedding gown (and the BM dresses) are very similar to yours - with the pleating on the bust - i love it! :)

Good!! You absolutely need to see a swatch! The internet means nothing! You can never tell on an internet picture.

i chose bordeaux (different dress) for my BM dresses. i think it will be too dark for your july wedding. it's very eggplant-like. the peony is gorgeous.
