Hi there! I'm doing a fall/autumn theme for my wedding (it's next Oct.) but I'm not sure what color to use for my Bridesmaid dresses that isn't brown...I was thinking about an eggplant color but FH isn't a fan...any other ideas? What do you think about like...copper?

i LOOOVED the color of my cousin's bm dresses...they were actually red but had this tight black lace overlay that made them this really unique color..they were beautiful..
those dresses are BEUTIFUL!! I love deep red - its perfect for winter or fall.

I'm also doing a fall theme, but I think I'm going to have each bridesmaid wear a different fall color - as long as the dress I choose comes in more than two colors! I was thinking of champagne, cranberry, orange, chocolate, maybe a golden yellow - colors of leaves!
OMG I'm doing the SAME thing!!!! I did a 'mock' wedding party on David's Bridal using their interactive thingamabob and it looks good!

My MOH wore a celedon (green) dress.
We both had fall colors in our bouquets

Re: Fall themed wedding: Bridesmaid dress color?
I've thought of doing all of these ideas- and I can't decide what I want!!!
I am getting married in October on a Vineyard, so the colors will be absolutely amazing. We're having a day wedding, so hopefully with sunlight everything will glow.
I first wanted to do the each-girl-in-another-color, but they didn't like the idea... After all, I wouldn't want to be the girl stuck in yellow...
I then thought about an eggplant purple with sage green and cream accents to go with my 'wine' theme, but then I figured that my BMs wont want to ever wear a purple dress.
I've been on the chocolate brown kick for a few months... I want them in tea-length so I figure it's something that they can re-use, but really-- does anyone ever re-use BM dresses??? I think I want to do chocolate with either a burnt orange, copper, or gold-ish accent. The problem with that is that FH doesn't like the idea of khaki-colored tuxes and will walk down the aisle naked before he wears a brown tux... That leaves me stuck with black tuxes which I will not pair with girls in chocolate brown.
My only huge plus with chocolate is that I can have a bunch of different colored flowers in our BoKs.
I can still go on the burnt orange or copper- but I don't want the girls to feel like a pumpkin patch, and I don't like gold jewelry so I can't do all gold... decisions decisions!!!! :)
I have to say- that cinnamon color is absolutely gorgeous, and it would look amazing with black tuxes. I like the thought, and it would set other accent colors off very nicely. I have to see what flowers to do with cinnamon...
Thanks for the thoughts ;)

My MOH wore celedon (shade of green). The top had a black mesh covering.
It was a Alfred Angelo 2-piece

Here are the dresses from my Thanksgiving wedding.
Oh, and let me know if you're interested in them, because my bridesmaids can't wait to make space in their closets!

Re: Fall themed wedding: Bridesmaid dress color?
Our colors were brown and ivory with bright fall color accents (flowers)
Some colors to try for the fall: amber, (orange-gold tone), sunshine (warm yellow hue), cinnamon, (warm red), maroon, peach (pink-orange tone). It doesn't necessary have to resemble the fall season. You can play around with the colors and tones to find the right one. A lot of the style magazine trends for weddings experiment with different hues and palettes. Have fun creating a unique color of your own! Good luck with your wedding plans!
