I need some wise, colour coordinated MNers to help me find the perfect bridesmaid dress......

[FruitynNutty]

For starters, why oh why is there not a wedding topic?

I'm looking for a bridesmaid dress (preferably not a proper bridesmaid dress as they seem a little frumpy to me) for my 22 year old sister. I'll also have 4 little bridesmaids aged from 4-12yrs old.

I'll be wearing a light gold dress and really like the idea of having sage green to match. However, I can't seem to find anything suitable in that colour.

I've looked on the Karen Millen website, Coast website, Ted Baker, Monsoon and found nothing

Obviously it's not the colour of the season!

I'm not too worried about the younger girls as they could wear ivory dresses with a sage sash around the middle. But I quite like the idea of my sister being mostly in sage so she looks a bit different.

Does anyone know where I could find something suitable?
Or do you think I should go for a different colour altogether?

The theme will be quite natural and foresty so lots of twigs and ivy and tea lights. The wedding is in September.

Sis has just told me she thinks sage will wash her out so I'm now thinking Chocolate? That would go with light gold wouldn't it? But then could I still have sage in my theme?
She really likes this one and this one

I think they are lovely and would really suit her

Of course you could have sage - maybe add a sage ribbon to her dress or have greeny flowers?

in bed on my phone! I prefer no 2 but is very trendy and will date your pics when you look back. I love chocolate, thats what i wore last year. Will be lovely with gold and touches of sage green.

Thanks suwoo, I hadn't thought about the dress dating in my pics. She's quite a trendy type which is why I wanted to steer clear of the traditional bridesmaid dresses.
I saw the perfect dress in Coast today (£50 off too!)but it was sage which I don't want to force on her.
I think I will add a sage ribbon to a chocolate/espresso dress like you say, Smurfgirl. I'm no good at colour coordinating but I think it'll look right
