Too much color? Does this all match?

    Sorry this is a detailed post. I just don't know if anything I've chosen for my bridal party even matches anymore Embarassed 

    I was hoping someone can provide a little insight or direction. None of the orders for the bridal party have been finalized so I can still make changes. The only thing I have is my dress.

    The original colors for my wedding were Tiffany Blue and Chocolate with Silver as an accent color. When I met with the florist after brainstorming for colors and looking at a ton of different ideas we decides to to a mixture of orchids and lillies in white and blush pink. Now that we have added the blush pink, should I include the pink in the flower girls dresses?

    These were a couple that I liked.

    Would you do Tiffany Blue or Pink for the accent color on the dresses?

    I just want everything to flow and I don't know if I've lost that look.

    The guys are in chocolate tuxes:

    The Bridesmaids are in Tiffany/MOH in Chocolate (with silver jewlery and shoes?):

    Junior Bridesmaid is in Tiffany Blue with Chocolate Trim:

    I have attached pictures of my dress. I ordered it in diamond white and had the train detailed to match the front. I also and having my veil custom made, it has a thin crystal trim and scattered crystals on the bottom.

    could you do a white with chocolate trim for the flower girl? I think the tiffany blue wouldn't seem like too many colors. or you could do white and tiffany or choc for the jr b-maid too.

    good luck!!! At the end of the day when you are all standing at the alter you will look great!

    My friend that just got married chose brown and pink and it was beautiful. I love the tiffany blue and brown combo, and I think a little blush thrown in would be great.

    Thank you!

    I just feel like you do all this planning and then you step back and don't even know what direction you are in anymore LOL.

    8bitbride- Thats for the suggestion the brown might look cute and it will match the ringbearers tuxes.

    I worried I had too much going on in my color palette, so a friend recommended I make a collage. I grabbed a photo of men in black tuxes and pasted a picture of bridesmaids in my dress color next to it, and then I layered over it paint swatches and pictures of things that looked like my flowers. It was a helpful exercise.

    I wouldn't try to incorporate the blush/pink from the flowers into the dresses. Everything doesn't have to match, it just has to go, and I think the flowers you decribed will go well with the tiffany blue and chocolate dresses.
