    Ok, I'm really stuck on what color of bridesmaid dresses I should have!  My dress is ivory, and it laces up in the back with a pink ribbon.  My flowers are pink.  Do you think a black bm dress with pink accents would look OK with my ivory dress?  I am afraid that if we do pink dresses, the flowers won't stand out at all!  What do you think??

    I think that a black bm dress with pink accents would look very nice.  Perhaps with some lace-up back detailing that would complement your gown?  I agree - unless the pink of the dresses is very different from the pink of the flowers, the flowers might blend in a bit.  Another alternative is gray for bm dresses, if you like that color.  Good luck!

    Black or gray with pink sounds lovely! Unless you want a LOT of pink. Black is more rewearable too

    I think black dresses with pink flowers are a great pop of color! You're right in that if you do pink on pink, the flowers will not stand out as much.  There are some great black bm dress options, or you can always let everyone pick their own lbd?

    Thanks guys!  I love the way the black looks with the pink...and definitely want my flowers to stick out.  I was just worried about how it'd look with my ivory dress....but the tuxes will be black so I guess it'll work just fine!
