Color issues - can't decide!

Color issues - can't decide!

I can’t decideeeeeee….

In my head I’ve been going back and forth between two color schemes.

This is the first one; I feel like the color itself is more “me” but I’m having a hard time thinking of flowers or other colors that would look good with it. Plus I think it’s a tricky finding the exact shade of blue I like and getting it to match other things. (also ignore the cake on the top right – I just liked it even though it’s green.)



These are the other colors I was thinking of – I love the bright pink with the blue… but do they make navy tuxes? I’m afraid it’ll look weird against black.



Ughhh I am the most indecisive person EVER!

Re: Color issues

both are soo pretty, I can see why you're undecided. I just wanted to say that I was in a BP with navy blue dresses and the guys wore black tuxes and navy vests, it looked fine, I dont think you would have to go with navy tuxes.

do you have a favorite color? maybe that would help you decide? I chose my colors bc I'm a pink freak so I knew that's what I was going to do....

also, is there any way you could kind of incorporate both schemes? they look like they could kind of go together

Re: Color issues - can't decide!

i myself am having trouble picking colors ... there are just so many pretty combo's to pick from ... i guess the best thing is to keep looking around until something really stands out! keep looking at dresses and flowers ... something will pop!

i can see why youre having a problem deciding. i really like both color schemes. i think i may be leaning towards the second one though becuase of the navy bridesmaids dress, it's gorgeous.

but, if you do feel like the first blue is more 'you' then go for it. i'm sure you can find plenty that would match.

I like both schemes that you posted. Why not use a combo of the two blues? I am sure you can find plenty that will match.

Both are awesome BUT I am LOVING The pinkish combo... I saw a bridesmaid dress in the beginning of my searching that had this scheme and I almost went with it bc I loved the colors together so much!

My fav color is blue... so I still like both of them The first color I like more, but I also like pink... I feel if I use the first color I won't be able to use the flowers I want. Ahhhh

Oooh I LOVE that! I tried to sell FH on the tan suits, he wasn't going for it though.

i think pairing the pink & navy will give you a lot more flower options. blue is tough

Re: Color issues - can't decide!

This is funny, I am having a similar issue and went with an impulse decision and chose a slate blue/grey colored bridesmaids dress. I am not sure what I am going to do for flowers, please NO offense from others who are choosing these but I hate blue flowers.

Strange cause my garden has lots of them and I love them but something about blue in a bouquet has a country look to it and that is not what I am going for.

In my opinion I would def go with the lighter blue simply because you are getting married in the hottest month of the season! The color isn't too opaque and wont attract too much heat. it can also be blended with any light contrast. U can play with it more.

Re: Color issues - can't decide!

No you're not !
Both are great, I like the first one best, and I'm not sure if they make the navy tuxs? Thats a great question

What colors will make you feel more 'you'? You said the first one is more 'me' and thats what its all about right>?

Re: Color issues - can't decide!

At first I was going to say go with the navy and pink-----ssssssssssooooooooooo pretty, elegant and more formal. But since you're getting married in July I would say go with a royal blue---more summery but still a classic combo.
I had trouble choosing my colors too but what realy helped me was making an inspiration boar like you did. But I noticed your first one has ALL different blues---you can try making one with ALL pink and royal blue if you want to see how it really looks together---and don't be temped by other shades of blue. Even if the pics are not wedding related seeing all the colors together will give you inspiration! Good luck!

Re: Color issues - can't decide!

i'm so not a fan of pink there will be not a drop of pink at my wedding....

we are doing navy blue champaigne and ivory BM's will be in champagne dresses and the guys will either be in dress blues or matching navy blue suits this way it's not a overkill of blue
