So I've been thinking a lot about what color bridesmaid dresses to go with.
I am leaning towards having pink and green as my colors.
Here are a few pictures I'm using for inspiration. I'm really leaning toward more of a romantic feel.
Now, I have three bridesmaids. One is pale like me. The other has olive skin. The last, my MOH, also has olive skin, but more on the yellow side. She is very particular about what colors she wears, because certain colors literally make her look ill.
I was originally thinking I would go with green dresses, but I am afraid that if I pick one color green, it may not look good on everyone. So then I was thinking maybe have them all wear different color greens. I thought that may look strange though.
So now, I'm thinkin a neutral might be better with green and pink flowers? Or a netural dress with a green or pink sash?
I'm pretty much lost here. Any and all in put is greatly appreciated.
Personally I LOVE the monochromatic look. I'd have them in shades of green! They can each pick what shade they like!

I voted pink - i think its a color that can really look good on anyone (counting on the shade).

Green and pink look awesome together! Especially for a July wedding...mine is in September and I'm leaning towards a sagey green with orange and wine colored flowers.

my friend did pink and green for her June wedding and we wore black dresses and I thought the colors looked so nice against the black. Our bo'ks had light pink flowers with greens and hers had light pink, bright pink and green.
Here is a pic to show you (mind the expression on my face lol)
i think pink would look great! My sister has olive skin and hates to wear green, so that might be difficult for your 2 BMs that have olive skin. I think pink would look good with both the olive and pale complexion

My friend did a pink and green wedding this past June - here are some pics from hers.
Our dresses were called clover - i voted for pink (as i mentioned above) but thought this could help to give you another visual.
I love the green and pink color combo. It's gorgeous!!! I would do sage green dresses with pink/white flowers.

Pink and green are so pretty together! I love pistachio dresses with pale pink flowers OR Clover dresses with fuschia flowers ( I saw the combo in Brides Magazine soooooo pretty)

I voted for pink.
I think a light/pale pink dress would look amazing with the first bouquet you posted with the green/white flowers.
I think if you did decide to go with green, you could pick a pale green, like a mint green maybe. That shade may look better on different skin color.

I think the different shades of green is a good idea. The pink could be very iffy if you have pale girls, regardless of the tone of the pink. The different shades of green is really different and sounds veryyy nice :)
