color or BM's / Time of year question

ok, heres my question. I was originally planning on doing black and pink. per my bm's request they would prefer black dresses and we would do pink flowers etc....which was FINE with me. BUT i am having a day time wedding and trying to make things a bit more casual...and i think black will not help with that.

ok so i thought about going back to the pink..which is an option...but recently i realized how much i LOOVE the dark green color (below), so i thought doing that green with pink accent would be a great idea. Here is my delima. I am getting married in late April, before many flowers are planted, so most of the pics will be green (grass/trees etc) and im afraid that having green dresses in addition to all the greenery will be GREEN OVERBOARD! any opinions. would anyone else be concerned about this???

When my BM's picked out their dresses, I was torn between the green or wine (which we got)...Even though there will not be too many flowers out, I do not think it will be too much! The green gives you the option to really make the flowers you pick bold!

I love greeen...especially the color of the dresses in the post. IMO, pink flowers would really be a nice touch but I don't think green would be too much. If the flowers are a different shade of green from the dress, I think it'll look nice.

the green is beautiful...and I think there will be enough flowers out at that time....anyway, the color is perfect for spring and you can really go nuts with floral color....I say GO FOR IT!!!!!!

I love the green- and if you voice your concerns to your photo people I am sure they will adress that and pose everyone a little differently...

the only thing i would suggest is talking to your girls about exactly what shade you will go with and have them try it if possible- some shades of green can be tough to wear jmo

I think the green will look great, even if your surroundings in pics will be green. The pink flowers will add some color. You shouldn't be concerned.

I also think the BM's will wear a green dress again if that's why they were leaning towards black in the first place.

I agree with every one else, you won't be going overboard with the green. You can always take pics inside your RH if you're concerned about the background.

I was originally planning on going with green dresses and pink flowers. But now I'm getting married St Patrick's Day weekend so I don't want green anymore. I love the look - it is so nice for the spring.
