GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR... I never knew picking colors for your wedding was such a hard task. Funny how I though my friend was being crazy when she couldn't pick colors for her wedding as far as bridesmaid dresses and flowers and now I'm suck in the same boat. Does anyone have any suggestions to steer me in the right direction? My wedding is in October and I don't want any pumpkins. I love the color orange/coral color as far as bridesmaids dresses but my fiance's cousin is getting married in August and her dresses are called coral. Not sure if its the same color but if it is I don't want to make it seem like I'm copying her. I'm stuck!!! I feel as though if I don't pick colors soon I can't move forward with wedding planning. Help? Anyone? What color combos can I do for October?

What about maroon/redish, brown? Do you want light or dark color? You could always do a darker color dress with brighter flowers - yellow, white, brown, orange..

I'm a November bride, and my colors are like burgandy and plum with metallic and ivory accents. Or a chocolate brown dress would look beautiful with coral & yellow flowers!

I'm October and I'm doing burnt orange, fuchsia and cobalt blue. The BM dresses are cobalt and most of the accents will be in the burnt orange and fuchsia. We don't have any pumpkins anywhere lol

Look at Davids Bridal (even if you dont go there) bc they have a nice variety of color. My friend is getting married this OCt and chose sangria for the BM and MOH in lapis. It is a pretty combo. I think fall colors are so gorgeous but you could go a totally different route too.

My friend got married in October and had the girls wear brown and they carried bouquets with orange, yellow and red flowers. It looked gorgeous! It reminded me of the colors of the changing leaves.

October wedding color ideas
Thanks ladies! I'm getting some really good ideas. I'm stuck on doing orange dresses but the. What flowers can I pick as the centerpieces without going orange overboard? I also was thinking of dark red with the orange but I feel like everyone does that as fall colors, no offense to anyone doing those colors. Just I want something different. Im also thinking of navy blue with the orange flowers... Has anyone seen that done before?

Maroon is one of my choices. That's my problem... I can't narrow it down. Choices choices... What to do? What to do? :)

I'm doing the cobalt dresses, my two MOHs will have all dark pink gerber daisies and the rest of my BMs will have all burnt orange gerber daisies. My bok will be a mix of both color gerber daisies. I attached a pic of my sample CP, I'll also have a cobalt table runner to tie the three colors together.
The blue and burnt orange are pretty....also the brown with almost anything

I did the same thing -- except with navy blue, silver and white. I'm not a fan of fall colors myself, so I just went with what I liked.

you can do burnt orange, ivory,plum, navy blue, gold, brown, hunter green, red/burgandy, Davids bridal has this color called peacock which is a pretty shade of green.
