    My cousin who got married last August, had a dress very similar to that (except with straps) and it was an eggplant purple. It's lovely!

    I think color palettes are moving away from being season-dependant.  I love that and I think it's fun and bright and pretty.  I don't think you have to be tied to "summer" colors at all.

    Yes, that's a pretty dress and purple is such an elegant color. My wedding was a month ago and was all purple and silver. My sister, who was the MOH, wore a very similar dress but with some silver accents and I loved it!!!

    I love it!! You never see purple as often, so it's a nice change. The only problem would be if the guys don't like wearing purple vests, but I'm sure they could be coaxed!

    My wedding is in the end of May and we're doing the same color purple but my BM dress is metallic. The flowers will be the same color purple as your pick!

    That is the color of my dress!  What color flowers are you going with?  That has been my next major dilemma!

    I think it's a beautiful color. But keep in mind that not everyone is comfortable wearing strapless. If straps could be added for those who wanted and/or needed them, I think it would be a beautiful dress as well. It's definitely cute but I know that I would never be comfortable wearing it as is and I know other people who feel the same about anything strapless.

    The dress is by Dessy, but I forget the style number.
