    Hi guys,

    not sure if this is even the right board for this, but I have dilemma for you. i know exactly the look i want for myself- I have a simple dress, no lace, no beads, and I want to wear it with a turquoise necklace. that part is not the problem. the problem is that I have NO idea what color scheme with work with this, what color bridesmaids dresses, what color flowers. I do NOT want a lot of turquoise in the wedding. in fact, I wouldn't mind if the only place it was was in my necklace. is that weird? what would go- colorwise? i've looked at what seems like a thousand inspiration boards and considered purple, dusty rose... its a June wedding and I prefer sort of rustic themed weddings if that helps. Any ideas would be much appreciated, thanks!

    sunflowers?  for some reason that jumps out at me when you say turquoise.  nice yellows but not too bright, neutrals, pops of oranges and that nice yellow..

    I also think that the popular slate blue/grey color is beautiful with turqiose.  A lot of the weddings that you would see on stylemepretty.com have a rustic style and that color is present in many of the color schemes.

    Dusty rose and creams would be beautiful too.  I also agree with yellow.  You could do yellows, light oranges, sea glass green, or oceany blues.  Then your necklace would fight right in.

    substitute the aqua with small turquoise details.

    I think a slate blue and silver/grey with turquoise accents would look amazing!
