    I'm actually looking for help for my MOH. She recently got engaged [yay!] and is planning her wedding for October. We've started our search for bridesmaid dresses, and have hit a wall. Her color scheme is burnt orange and chocolate brown. However, we're having issues with colors. Alfred Angelo's burnt orange is the right shade, but we can't find any dresses there we really like. David's Bridal orange colors aren't even close to right. So we started looking for brown... again AA had  the right color, but no dresses... and David's browns aren't quite dark enough. Her FI is currently away at boot camp, so she can't really discuss changing colors with him, nor does she want to steer away from these. This is her second wedding [her first husband commited suicide 3 months into their marriage] and her first wedding was nothing like she actually wanted, so we're determined to make this one the best we can.

    Can anyone help me out and give me some picture of real weddings with dark brown dresses and where you got them? Or burnt orange ones that aren't from AA but really similar in color? Your help would be GREATLY appreciated Hive!

    Oh, I should also add that whatever dress we do end up with should look good paired with cowboy boots :)

    I have the following dress in Espresso for sale.  They were really pretty, and well made. I have a size 6. I also have matching heels in size 8. The other bridesmaids may be willing to sell if they still have them.  We were all around size 4-6.  They would be cute with cowboy boots and less formal jewlery.
