Color suggestions needed

I ended up picking out Bridesmaid dresses that are black. I never thought that I would do that, but when I saw the dress on 4 of my girls and they all looked so beautiful, we decided on black. Now my dilemma is what colors to go with for the flowers. Since I had originally wanted wine colored dresses, that throws things off a little bit. I am meeting with florists next week and I am not sure which way to go. If anyone has any pictures that they can post of black BM dresses with Bo-k's I would appreciate it. Thanks and hope everyone has a great New Years!

I went to a wedding in October 3 years ago, I don't have any digital pictures so I can't post, but the bms had brightly colored boquets in mango and yellows - they were gorgeous!

Here is a link to a post on the NW thread that has pics: http://www.liweddings.com/chat/topic.aspx?ID=187629

Re: Color suggestions needed

I think that a bright pink or dark red would look really pretty against the black. Really most bright colors would look aweseome with black.

Honestly, you can do anything with black....although you can do black and white...since it is so easy to coordinate with black i would use color....any color...peaches and creams...blues, yellows, they will all look great against the black...red will also really pop. Hope that helps
