Bridesmaids dress colour Help! (With pics)

[Largethighsbadeyes]

Hi, me again!

I posted a few days ago about having chosen my dress but its not ivory which makes me question my colour scheme.

So I think I've narrowed the choices down to the following colours.

Would love some opinions maybe you could give me your top 2 or 3?

It's not so much about the colour of the bridesmaids dress more which will make my dress look best (first official bridezilla moment!) All the colours would suit the bridesmaids I think. All beautiful girls 😊

Red or bronze. Defo not one of the washed out colours.

2 or 5

I really like #3 the light sage - I think that will be v on trend this year as well, judging by my spidey senses which always manage to predict the colour of the year 🤓

Either of the greens.

Another vote for 2. A darker gold would be ok

Sage or bronze the others are too wishy washy and your dress would just blend in - needs a contrast

I really don't like the green one - I think it looks cheap and the thigh-high split is a bit much for a bridesmaid! I'm no prude by the way but I like a bit of a classy wedding and attended one a few weeks ago where the BM's all had clingy thigh-split dresses and they all looked a bit uncomfortable and I'm sorry, but tacky.

The red one is much classier Imo or the pale green or gold one.

The olive green is gorgeous with your dress

I think 1, 2, or 5 ( the gold) As long as the olive green suits the teenage bridesmaids, green don’t work for everyone (you said it suits your MOH).

@Twawmyarse that wouldn't be the actual dress, it was just an example of colour

Green one, no.2. Sets it off beautifully.

@Cameleongirl I think that colour would suit most people wouldn't It? I think trying to find a colour that suits everyone perfectly I'd end up with 5 different colours

Thanks @EllieBellend that's my thought at the moment but this has definitely helped me narrow it down

I knew the pale sage didn't work

Ahhh! Sorry, yes the colour is lovely.

I think it would, but someone suggested getting a swatch, which might be a good idea. Years ago, one of my friends had to wear a green bridesmaid’s dress and she hated it. She had dark hair and green eyes so I’m not sure why she didn’t like it. 🤷

Green one - best contrast without being too bold

I love the burnt orange.

I'm getting married next July, my dress is a champagne/blush colour. Bridesmaids will be in burnt orange. Colourful flowers. Venue is very burgundy in decor. Hopefully it will all go (it works okay on my colour palette boards!).

I also love a combo of mustard orange, burnt orange & wine red expecially for an autumn wedding.

Green or gold for me.

No 3 is lovely

The wine colour is stunning with your dress colour.

@catandcoffee I thought that but the majority vote is a no...also my mum and that's an opinion that carries weight! 😅

Olive or bronze, but the wine is fabulous too. All great for autumn.

Definitely nothing too pale.

Copper. Some are too close to the colour of your dress and others are a bit meh. The copper looks lovely (2nd from last photo to clarify).

I really love the copper but is probably too similar to SIL bridesmaid dresses and I dont want to duplicate anything. It was a beautiful wedding though

I wanted green but my family are Romany and insist that it's an unlucky colour. No green cars allowed either.

So I think you should go for green and share photos so I can see how lovely everyone would have looked

I went for wine and tbf it did look stunning with ivory.
