Limo Color?????

Is everyone going with white limos or are some of you going with black limos? What are your thoughts on using black limos for a wedding? I'm not really a fan of white limos

Has to be white. It's a wedding not a funeral.

my limo guy suggested both . white dress will look nice in front of black and tuxes will look nice in front of white!

I think white is better. You can use black for any occasion. ..jmo....but it is your day

I think we are going with white. But, I definitely don't see anything wrong with black either! Go for what you like!!

Hi Corrin
I think black limos are more elegant and sophisticated than white, if I wasn't going with a bus (the height of elegance and sophistication) I would have gone with black. If black is your preference you should totally go for it. You will find more options in white though since that is what is traditionally used for weddings. I don't agree that black is only for funerals, try getting into a trendy club after you get out of a white limo, NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. Nobody takes a white limo to the Academy Awards etc.

Could not have said it better myself.

If you want black, go for it - it's elegant and classy and your dress along with your BM dresses (unless they're in black ) will really stand out against it.

I'd like to go with silver...my entire bridal party will be in black so I think the silver would compliment them all nicely. Besides, I just really dislike white limos.

Hey Danielle,
I just do not like the overall look of white limos but everyone is giving me mixed opinions when I mention it. I know I should just go with what I want but I dont want it too look stupid. How is everything going with you and the planning? Did you get your BM dresses yet what color are you going with?

I really think you should go with black. I know parents and older family members will probably have something to say simply because they are used to everything being done 'the traditional way.' I get that kind of reaction alot myself, but in the end YOU AND SEAN have to be happy. If seeing white limos in your pics is going to annoy you or if you really don't like the look of them to begin with, DON'T USE THEM. It is not like you want to use green or electric blue or something completely funky, black is elegant and timeless, it's just a bit less common (which is a bonus in my opinion). I would no doubt do black!!
Regarding my BM dresses, I ORDERED THEM!!! We did it last week. I am so thrilled. We ended up going with four different styles, all in Amethyst Satin (don't think purple, it is more of a beautiful jewel tone ). I never ever thought I would do this color but when I sat down with the color chart it was the one that really caught my eye, it was beautiful so I decided what the hell!! It also allows me to stay with pink flowers which is what I really want and I think the color combination will be breathtaking and perfect for my season. Originally I was going to do black dresses with pink flowers, but I decided I didn't love bridal parties all in black. AND YOU HAVE TO LOVE IT! So anyway, thus my Amethyst decision, hopefully I won't regret it. All my girls love the color so that makes me happy. And for the most part they picked out which dress they wanted to wear and they are thrilled.
Here is the link to my BM dress thread.
Have you made any decisions yet?

FH and I had this argument and we compromised. I don't like white limos and he thinks black limos are for funerals, so we found opal colored (silver) limos at All-Star. Perfect compromise! And very classy and elegant

Black limos remind me of a funeral probably because that's the only time I've been in a black one. But I say do what you like. It's your day.

I'm having white limos.

But just in case if anyone is interested, Lincolns (not trucks) also come in silver/gray

Re: Limo Color?????

Thanks for all your input danielle(and everyone else), I really appreciate it. I actually ordered my bridesmaid dresses about 2 weeks ago. We also looked at vera wang but ended up going with a Jim Hjelm dress instead----I am having a problem with what color to choose though. I dont want to switch the dress becuase everyone loved it and it is so flattering on all the girls but the color choice is really throwing me off. I am speaking with John from flowermichele (who by the way is amazing) and trying to come to a conclusion that will make me happy with the flowers and over all color scheme of the wedding. I never thought the color was going to be an issue but it is turning into the worst problem so far.

Re: Limo Color?????

Aww, sorry you are having BM dress color confusion. I went through that too, BIG TIME! I started off really wanting a goldish color. I still can't believe I chose amethyst, but I feel really good about it. What color did you chose?
Let me know if there is anything I can do to help. I have a ton of flower pics and BM party pics saved, I'd be happy to share them with you if you need ideas.
