I'm a Fall bride (that's my absolute favorite season) but I don't necessarily want the USUAL fall scheme. So what I'm doing is Burnt Orange, Brown & Purple. I know it sounds pretty gross but I just know that it will look great together. Nevermind that I can't find any pics to prove this.
So anyway...our Groomsmen are wearing Chocolate Brown Suits. Should my bridesmaids wearing Purple Dresses with bouquets with Orange as the dominant color or should they wear Orange Dresses with bouquets with Purple as the dominant color?
I was originally thinking purple dresses but am afraid that will be too dark against the suits. Then I thought the orange would be great but didn't want my girls to feel like pumpkins.
All thoughts and comments are welcome.
(The pics & link I've attached have at least two of the colors but I can't find anyone with all three)
I thought orange for dresses wasn't such a hot idea at first. I was in a wedding last year and they were the color. Everything actually looked really great!

GREAT COLORS!!!! If I was a fall bride I probably would of done something similar. I thing the Orange dress would be very pretty. Ques, did you consider putting your girls in a brown too?
No I sure hadn't!! That's certainly a thought. I'm unconventional so I won't be wearing white (I'm wearing bronze or copper). Still in the brown family but maybe too much brown? Hmmm....I'll have to think on that...it may be the perfect solution (with purple and orange accents)
I am likin the brown dress with purple and orange flowers it would flow better with the gm. But if not I loveeeee purple and orange

Orange and brown. I would do brown dresses with orange flowers.

I love orange, if you do the right shade I dont think the BMs will look like Pumpkins at all. Orange will complement your cooper dress and the brown suits so much better than the purple in my opinion. I think that purple will look great as an accent color in the bouquets.

I voted for purple, because I love purple and would definitely do that but orange is quite an 'in' color and in the right shade, could look awesome!!
