Please help me pick my Bridesmaids dress color

This is not good. My wedding is in 107 days and I have NOT picked wedding colors yet. Unfortunately, I never really dreamed of my wedding and I still can't pick which colors. My FH said no pink, berry or girly colors (whatever that means).

I am debating bill levkoff 966 in Wine and Ivory and Sage and Ivory. My wedding is July 7th. Please tell me what you think, I need help and all the comments I can get. I am somewhat depressed about this

I vote for the sage because of the time of year of your wedding. I think the wine is too dark for a summer affair. The wine color would be better for a fall wedding. (Besides, you can't say sage is too 'girly'). A word of advice about sashes. I'm wearing one and I'm long waisted but it actually made me look shorter and squashed. Try to keep the sash on the thinner side (like the girl in the wine color dress standing to the left of the bride. I don't think the thicker sash is flattering on the girl to the right of that same bride. It's subtle, I know. I guess I'm super picky, though). Don't freak out about having a main color. Choose colors you gravitate to. You'll figure it out.

well the two colors are very different.......I know sage would be more commonly used for a summer wedding, but there's something about the wine & ivory that I love!! My BM dresses are brown, so I guess I'm just drawn to the rich colors!

Can you provide more info on your BM's? Are they petite or do they carry a few extra pounds?? I'm just thinking that darker colors are sometimes more flattering on heavier bodytypes. Maybe you should ask your BM's if there's a color they prefer if you can't decide??

good luck deciding- they're both beautiful!!! don't get too down about this, you're just feeling overwhelmed!!

Tough call..but I think I agree with the other ladies.I think the sage would be perfect for summer! That wine color is gorgeous though!

I have five girls. One is a little thicker. She will be wearing a 12. Other than that everyone else ranges from a 2 to a 6

I'm doing wine with champagne, but I think for a summer wedding the sage is better!

What flowers do you want to use? That might help make a decision. I think the sage is really nice but the red totally popped to me!

Love both colors but especially the sage - it's so pretty and since it's a summer wedding I would go with the sage.

I am usually a sucker for sage..i just think its an awesome color, but I love how the wine looks with the ivory..I think the ivory sash on the wine dress makes it look less fall-ish....
