Opinion Needed on BM dress...

Still haven't decided on the BM dress but I'm leaning towards this and the color. My flowers will be all red and I'm thinking the girls would have pink flowers to brighten things up. Would it clash, look cheesy, etc.?? I'm having the hardest time finding a dress for the girls!!

Re: Opinion Needed on BM dress...

that looks like a wine/burgundy color, I do not see the pink roses with that dress at all. I see more fall colors. My GF girls had that color and she had them carry green hydrengeas with fall leaves and white roses. You should take the color swatch to your florist and let them give you few color/flower suggestion.

Re: Opinion Needed on BM dress...

I guess I'm more concerned if that color will clash with the red. I'm having more of a red color scheme. I didn't want to pick red for the girls since it will be too overpowering of a color and since one of my dresses will be red it will be just too much red going on, especially with 6 girls. Has anyone come across any BM dresses they liked that weren't in satin?

Re: Opinion Needed on BM dress...

Honestly, I think that dress would clash with a red color scheme. It's a beautiful dress, but not next to red. Does the dress come in other colors??

It does come in other colors. You can see them on the Bill Levkoff site. Thanks for helping!

Re: Opinion Needed on BM dress...

See I misunderstood your post, I thought all the girls would be wearing that dress and you wanted to know if the color of the flowers would clash....yes it definitely would clash next to red dresses. They no go together. Are you trying to tone down the red, why don't you go with an accent color. Is red the only color in your wedding color scheme???

Re: Opinion Needed on BM dress...

With the red dresses I can see you doing something like this for the bo-ks. This is what my GF did

Re: Opinion Needed on BM dress...

I am looking around for pix of BM in red dresses to see what I come up with for you. Why do you want to do different colors, why don't you do different styles like the pix below. Red is a beautiful color

Re: Opinion Needed on BM dress...

Here is something else I found. 1/2 & 1/2 that definitely could tone down 'the red'



I still think the red is so vibrant and nice. Check out this bride

Re: Opinion Needed on BM dress...

I think this dress would look GREAT with pink flowers since it has a lot of pink in it already (it doesnt look burgandy on my screen). But pink, mauve and red sound like a clash to me. So if you really like this dress and the pink - maybe you could do shades of pinks instead of red.

Re: Opinion Needed on BM dress...

I looked on the Bill Levkoff site what about getting the dress in black or pewter! I really love the burgandy but I have to agree that red roses would clash

Re: Opinion Needed on BM dress...

Blusing Bride,

I'm having the same trouble picking out BM dresses. I still have not picked a color or the dress and the wedding is in July!!

I like the dress you picked out but I'm not crazy about the color.
