Color Help!

I need opinions please! My wedding is in January and so far everything I have done/planned is Ivory and Black. My dress, shoes, bridesmaids, invitations, etc.. I feel like I need to add another color for details like ring bearer pillow, flowers, Junior BM dresses, etc. I just dont want it to seem flat especially in the pictures! Def dont want purple and I am not sure how I feel about red. Any opinions?

Re: Color Help!

With ivory and black you can pretty much add any color u want to make it pop. Red, cobalt blue, greens, a deep pink or fuchsia, teel, etc... Go to google images and type in dif color combos to see examples and see if any particular color stands out to u.

Re: Color Help!

Either a deep red or blue would be gorgeous with ivory and black.

Re: Color Help!

Thanks everyone! We went to look for dresses today and although I love the blue, red seems to go best for the winter. I will do red accents but not red dresses. BM's will be in black however I feel its too much to put 2 junior BM in black also. Still in search....

My colors were black and red...the bm's wore black dresses and carried red roses. Even the GM's wore black tuxes, black shirts, black vests, and red ties with red roses. It looked awesome in pictures and made me stand out!!!

Black, red and ivory is going to look amazing!!!

here are some pics from my wedding party!

Re: Color Help!

Totally agree! I immediately thought of red or burgundy.....it's going to look so rich and classy. Great choices!

What about having the jr bm in black but with an ivory sash? I think that would look great together and look beautiful in pictures. HTH!

Re: Color Help!

I think a deep red, but any color could really be used. Good Luck!!

yes this is what we are looking to do! I have also fallen in love with a deep gray silvery color. Sounds odd but with ivory it looks super elegant! I am not in love with red flowers for me they stand out too much in the pictures I like soft flowers.
i found a great red black and ivory dress by BCBG mxazria but it is too much to ask the bridesmaids to spend :(
