What do you think about these bridesmaids dresses

So I had decided I would do petrol blue bridesmaids dresses with a few girls wearing blue and white floral dresses.

However, my head has been turned by these navy dressses. Ordinarily I would say navy is a shit color for a summer, daytime wedding. But my head has been turned. My flowers are going to be long stem roses - various shades of white, cream, blush pink with a tiny bit of green.

This particular shade of navy is really speaking to me!

I think I might just be subconsciously over trying to find the right floral bridesmaid dress though

I like the colour but not the dresses - Monsoon have a decent range of navy bridesmaid dresses at the £100-150 mark (some have floral embroidery).

I like them. I always wanted navy bridesmaids dresses but as I got married in the 80s it was pastels all the way.
People are so lucky now to be able to have whatever colours they want.

A bit dark for me but the dress designs are nice 😊

I only think booby dress is inappropriate. I think the rest are totally fine for a church

It is a classy, neutral colour. I like it. It also means your bridesmaids can wear these dresses on other occasions.

I like navy…it’s a classic colour and goes well with your flower colours. However, I don’t like these particular dresses. They look like something you might pick up on Shein (ok if this is your vibe, but not if you are wanting it to look classy).

Is that Meghan Markle on the left?

I think navy is very chic for a wedding, but the styles of those dresses are not to my taste. If you are getting married in church, they would definitely need to be more modest and covered up.

I like them, the kind of dress you can the wear again rather than wear once and shove to the back of the wardrobe.

It doesn’t really match the petrol blue I picked as my wedding colour but I feel like my wedding is quite neutral. My wedding colour doesn’t really feature anywhere tbh

I'm not keen, sorry OP. Dare I say they look a bit cheap. They also look like the kind of dress a guest might end up wearing.
