Pic of my dress - need ideas for BM's dress color

I will be wearing the Maggie Sottero "Katherin" wedding gown in Diamond White/Blue & Blush. You can't see it from the photo, but the embroidered leaves in the dress are, according to Maggie Sottero, "blue" but they really give the appearance of a greenish-blue. Trying to find a BM's dress color that won't clash has been a challenge to say the least, and when I found a color that matched the greenish-blue EXACTLY, I was told by the maker (Impression Bridal) that they don't make the color anymore. Any feedback at all would be appreciated. Thanks!

FIRST love your dress! so pretty. the little bit of color will really make it different and pretty.

As far as BM dresses I might suggest a slightly deeper tone of green or blue, wouldn't try to prefectly match your dress. I have blue in mine and just went with a deeper tone of blue. Irridescent satin dresses also might also do well since they have green-blue light changing shades.

Maybe navy dresses? A dark navy would look fine next to light green or blue shades.

Hi! Me and BM's are going to Bridal Accent this weekend to look for dresses. I was all set for Impression Bridal's "slate" color that was an EXACT MATCH to the blue in my dress but they discontinued the color. Once we settle on something, I'll definitely post a pic! Thanks for the well wishes!!
