REALLY NEED HELP - FG and JBM question (long)

OK ladies - I have been struggling over this alone far too long now. Haven't wanted to involve anyone, ie mom, etc but now that I started getting people involved, they can't see what the big deal is. Since we are all preparing for a wedding, I really need advice here.

I am having a kings wedding with the only adult woman my moh. There are tons of kids in the families so I am having 3 flower girls (all 5yrs old), and 1 jr bridesmaid (11 yrs old).
Now the moh is wearing a deep burgundy color. Should I:
1) dress all the girls in white with burgundy sashes (maybe just add little sleeves for the fg)
or
2) dress the fg in white and the jbm in burgundy
or
3) dress them all in pink and white?
Im so afraid of ordering from these online stores without knowing the quality.
I can't take it anymore - this is the only part I'm having a problem with and I only have 93 days!!!
Ahh - feel much better.

There's no 'should', it's whatever you like best. For me, I want to be the only one in white so I would choose a lighter shade of the MOH dress (pink). But whatever you choose, they're going to look adorable.

One question, what is king's wedding?

I would put the MOH and the JR BM in the colored dress and the FG's in the white with the colored sash, but maybe put the MOH and the JR BM in different shades of the same color.

I think JBM in the burgundy and FGs in white (or ivory) with burgundy accents

Personally, I like the FG is white and the JBM in burgundy. Ms. Jillian makes JBM dresses to match some designers. My JBM wore Ms. Jillian to match the Bill Levkoff my BMs wore. Here's a pic (the JBM is on the lower right):

Patrice--
I have been wondering the same thing. I asked my junior bridesmaid's mom what I should do and she said...in my opinion only the bride should be in white! I think i am starting to agree. I do, however, like the idea of a flower girl in a white dress BUT...i think if you have more than two girls in a white dress it might distract from you. In your pictures you will see a little color and a blur of white...what do you think?

HI ANNIE!!!
OK - this is what happened. There is a flower girl dress at Davids - basically the only one with color on the bottom under the organza- sooo cute! (You can see it on the web site) However, it doesn't match the moh color. I took mom and fmil last night with me - we all left with the same feeling (which I wrote about in the first place) Misery loves company - just kidding.
I agree with you Annie, I want to be the only one in white - and to boot my dress is silk white - so its not pure like the fg ones so it would still look off. So this is what I decided: I found this place pegeen.com on the internet. They do most of their dresses is so many color variations. They have a similar dress to the one in Davids. I asked if they could change the cumberbund looking sash to a 'younger' looking bow and add florets for the 5 yr olds to copy Davids dress and they said yes!!!
But if the swatches don't match - Im going with the US angels one with color sash and adding little sleeves to the top. Getting there....thanks for all your help ladies!

Oh sorry - I forgot to answer that question yesterday - basically the BP is all men - no bridesmaids.
