As you ladies know, my favor is going to be a pair of handpainted wine glasses for each couple... I started them tonight and want some feedback on the color choice.

Should it be burgundy (to go with the girls' dresses, etc..) or should I do the flowers more neutral with a creamy beige that would likely match more people's decor?

this picture is horrible cause my camera's clsoeup feature s tinks, but I wanted some feedback....

The burgundy is deeper in real life and the beige actually has more of a white tone with cream highlights, but obviously the picture doesn't show that very well....

THANKS!

If you are giving them a pair can they have one of each color?

I like them both actually - I wouldn't worry about matching people's decor at all - most people mix and match their wine glasses anyway. You could do both and give each couple different ones...

I agree! They are both so nice. If I was buying them in a store I would get one of each color.

I voted for burgundy just because I like them better! You did a GREAT job with them! Can I be a guest at your wedding!?!?!

Soooo pretty! Do you do that for a living?

I think that both are lovely. I would mix it up, so that everyone gets a differnt color.
