Eggplant?

Do you think this color is too dark for a spring wedding?? I was looking on the Bill Levkoff website and I fell in LOVE with this color.

Re: Eggplant?

i think it is a bit dark. but honestly, whatever you like goes. You could always offset it with lighter flowers.

I am using merlot for my spring wedding! I am using pink, merlot and light green flowers! I think it will be great if you offset it with lighter colors!

Re: Eggplant?

Leese just used eggplant for her March 30th wedding. I think it's fine for spring as long as you use light colored flowers to go with it.

Re: Eggplant?

Oh heck no!!! People wear black in the spring and the summer!

I think it's an absolutely stunning color and very flattering as well. You can lighten up the 'atmosphere' with light colored flowers, shoes, and accents.

Re: Eggplant?

i love the color and i was deciding between that color and the lilac color, i decided to go with the lilac because i dont' want my colors to be washed out in photos and i can do more with lilac in terms of gifts and the flowergirl dress. sorry i know that doesn't help any, but i actually was torn with these two colors for the past couple of weeks.
