Small vent. I'm driving myself crazy.
I can't decide on bridesmaid colors. Or at least I had. I originally wanted raspberry (bright pink) and cream (off white). Half the girls in one color half in the other. I will be in ivory. I realized the cream will look bad with the ivory so I decided to change it. I just spent over an hour in the store with my mother trying to figure out a color to go with the raspberry. I don't want all pink so I was looking at anything. I then saw the color caribbean (teal) and loved it. The raspberry and the caribbean don't go together. TOOOO bright. I don't know anymore what I want to do and I have no input from FH on this and I just want someone else to say This is it. Now deal with it. I am driving myself crazy on this. The wrost part is is that the swatches on the site look NOTHING like the real thing!

Re: Small vent. I'm driving myself crazy.
You'll find the right color. Remember to take a deep breath and realize it's just a color. Whatever you pick will look fabulous.

I think as someone said rasberry & green would go
Good luck..hang in there Bonnie

Re: Small vent. I'm driving myself crazy.
A nice sage green might go well, depending on the shade of raspberry. Green's opposite red on the color wheel, so if you find the right shade of green, it should tone down the raspberry and the colors should also complement each other.

Re: Small vent. I'm driving myself crazy.
You can always do a "rainbow" wedding....If all of the dresses are the same and the colors go, this can be really beautiful. I forgot which celebrity I saw do this, but I remember it looked pretty and it gave each girl some individuality.

Re: Small vent. I'm driving myself crazy.
I would find a specific BM dress you want first, because I think thats harder to do than choose colors. After you choose the style it will limit your choices on color and narrow it down for you.
Remember, you can always incorporate colors you like into your wedding with out it being the BM dress color.
Relax and good Luck!

ETA: I had a hard time choosing colors too. I had an idea of what I wanted, but once you pick the actual dress, just pick what color the dress looks good in. some dresses don't look good in some colors.
