Color for Bridesmaid dresses

Has anyone decided on the color they want for the bridesmaids? At first I wanted a soft green (celadon), but now I'm considering something in the red family like a merlot color. My all time favorite would be hunter green but it's too dark for July and I'd be afraid the girls would just blend in with the greenery outside in pictures.

BM's dresses will be lilac. The other color I will incorporate will be a celery/celadon, just because I love that color combo.

Re: Color for Bridesmaid dresses

I think that I am going to go with a platinum (gun metal gray color). I think it would look nice for a fall wedding. Plus, my sisters have done the blue, red, and greens for their weddings. I thought I would be different.

Re: Color for Bridesmaid dresses

Well I originally wanted Euro Celadon until I saw the Euro Wine by Bill Levkoff...When my BM's tried the dresses on, we ordered the following dresses in Euro Wine..

The first is my MOH dress & the rest of the BM's will be wearing #2

Re: Color for Bridesmaid dresses

this is such a subject i am hating now i cannot decide.
I really wanted to do a snowball wedding. having me and my girls in all ivory. and i wanted all black magic roses. my mother hates this idea and i know some of my girls thinks this is wierd but whatever it is my wedding.
So then i searched for an alternative to my color. so i found the new color from bill levkoff which is called euro taupe. it is nice i will post picts of both colors.
thanks for letting me vent a litte.

Re: Color for Bridesmaid dresses

I want a shade of pink. I havent decided what pink i want. I see all these beautiful BM's dresses and each shade looks so pretty. I know I want tea lengths and being an April wedding, a lite pink may just do it.

Re: Color for Bridesmaid dresses

I am thinking either red or blue. I am planning on getting married in Jan. so I think either would look nice. If I do pick blue, i want it to be an ice blue. this way I could have silver as the complementary color.
