Colors

Hey GIrls... Do you know your colors already? I feel like I can't pick them out until I find a BM dress... but I wanna start doing some DIY things but can't bc I am unsure about my colors

Re: Colors

I like purples, magentas, pinks but I do not know how they will look in a BM dress... I was even thinking black dresses w/ colorful flowers. I feel like I won't know until I find my BM dresses.

Re: Colors

I know I want navy blue with accents of a pale pink and white. Although I have not done anything yet that would make a difference on what my colors are.

I LOVE the way black looks with tons of color! I saw one pic where it was black dresses and then each BM was in a different color shoe/flower, so one would have pink shoes with pink flowers, another yellow shoes with yellow flowers, etc. It looked AMAZING!!

Re: Colors

After a lot of flip flopping, I've decided to go with a very pale yellow and a light purple/lavender color

Re: Colors

i always wanted black and white because of it's classic timeless look....and then my FH's family passed a comment that black at a wedding is bad luck...well i'm not about to give up my dream for black and white...i just decided to add in some color too...i decided on mostly white with accents of black/deep red and bright pink

i also wanted to do black bridesmaids dresses because what girl won't re-wear a black dress....i eve thought about letting each girl pick out their own....but then someone also pointed out if i do black bridesmaid dresses, and the majority if girls at the wedding also wear a LBD, my bridesmaids won't really stand out....thoughts????

Re: Colors

I know people say then the bridemaids won't stand out but as long as YOU stand out who cares (in my opinion). I do like the idea that it is very classic and will not go out of style.

Re: Colors

Im doing dark purple with accents of lighter shades of purple and either sage green or orange and fucshia.

I think im leaning more towards the orange and fucshia.

Re: Colors

I'm doing White with a Dark Green and some pale yellow accents. I associate green with the month of March and yellow with Easter. My wedding is in March, the weekend before Easter. And YES. There will be Green and Yellow Peeps on the table... because I'm doing a 'Lovebirds' theme... and really, what's Easter time without Peeps?!?!?!

And here's a random picture of some badass Peeps.

Re: Colors

I'm doing blues and greens... Not really sure about specific colors yet, but at least have an idea so I can look at BM dresses and flowers!

Hey, if Kim K can do it anyone can!!! lol

I think it would be fine- if you want give your BM's a little something extra (flower in the hair, etc) to make them stand out, but in the end I still stick with the fact that I LOVE black for BM dresses, so many options!!!
