Dress Question (I Need Your Opinions - Please Helllp Me Decide)

Okay so here's my dilema. My BM's are wearing chocolate brown and I am wearing a white dress. I have 2 Junior BM (they will be 11 and 10 yrs old). I saw a beautiful dress today in Burlington Coat Factory for them and the color is 'Champagne'. Do you think this will clash in the pictures?

I think the contrast will look beautiful with my bridesmaids, I'm just worried how it will look with my dress in pictures (i.e, choc brown BM, champagne Junior BM and white wedding dress). Should I just get choc brown dresses for the Junior BM?

I really need help here ladies.

I don't think it will look bad per se, but if you're concerned, maybe you can do brown dresses for them but with a champagne sash. Personally, and it's just my taste, I don't like champagne dresses for anyone in the BP, because I feel it's too light a color and competes with the bride. JMO. Much different when it's a child in the BP, but still...I would probably just do a sash if it were me.

I love white, chocolate and champagne! I don't see any issue at all!

I used champagne, but as a sash because as a full dress I think it would look too similar to your dress. I think the color combination would be nice with the brown- but it depends on if you mind their dresses kinda being similar to yours in color.

I agree with Ali. If they were flower girls it would be different, but Junior Bridesmaids, I would do the sash thing.

I think the champagne will blend well with the other colors. My bridesmaids are wearing sable brown and my MOH is wearing champagne with a espresso sash. I think the colors look good together.
