OKay Im clueless with matching things.
If I chose Chocolate (a dark brown color) or Cappuccino BM dresses...what color flowers do you think I should use?
Second question...what do you think of having my MOH in one of those colors and then my BM's in the other? Do you think that would be dumb?

(I never realized that planning a wedding would be THIS hard )

I went to a wedding recently where the BMs had chocolate brown dresses and carried pink calla lillies. It was beautiful.

Any pink flowers would have the same look.

peach or pink roses would be lovely! Peonies even yellow flowers would work really well with those colors.

I'm having chocolate dresses and I'm using leonides roses, possibly sahara roses, mango callas, hypericum berries and green hydrangea. Some type of fall-ish look.

I think pink flowers would look so good!!!! I may be biased since I love the combo of brown and pink!!
To your second question....I personally wouldn't do the different colors for the BM and MOH..BUT....I'm seen it done and it actually looks really nice in photos.
I guess I'm a matching freak and all the bridesmaids have to be in the same color. JMO!!

For flowers I think anything in the peach, pink, orange or yellow family of colors would look great.

For the second question, it used to be tradition to have MOH in darker color (but the same dress) than BM, and I think chocolate brown w/ cappuccino would look beautiful!!
