    OK, I was planning on doing black BM dresses, everything else black and white and ALL flowers (except my bouquet) black magic roses.  After (stupidly) looking around on fifty flowers, I'm loving the blush colored flowers.  Was thinking maybe just do all blush colored flowers now.  But that would put me back at square one on everything else.  Any ideas for other colors, and BM dresses??  sheeeeeeesh, why do I do this to myself!?  LOL

    i still like your original colors (black and white would look very chic with the blush roses)

    I think b/w is very chic with blush.

    Blush is super hard to match btw. We had "Champagne pink" (aka blush) and only the dresses and flowers were spot on, color-wise. Our other color was regular champagne. We ended up with varying shades of champagnes and pinks and ivories and it looked very romantic in the endl I think black would have punched it up nicely

    oooooh that does actually sound very pretty......   didn't even think about keeping the black and white!  This takes me back to my dang chairs though!  The venue has the most horrific black metal chairs with dark red padding.  I was only doing the red, black and white to try to avoid getting chair covers and having something look halfway decent with those monsters.  hehe......  oh the joys of wedding planning   Money mouth

    Cover them up, lol. Or, have very dim lighting at dinner and nobody will notice. We had painted silver chairs at ours with ivory pads. Still ugly, but they did blend. The venue did have some lovely fake vines everywhere =]. SOmetimes you take it with a grain of salt lol

    i know this dilemma! haha.  blush looks good with lots of colors, especial other pastels, like peach, lavender and ivory.  keep your black dresses, and think about adding in grey, which softens the gap between black and white.  or, switch from black and white to black and ivory.  i had a picture, but it's not working :/

    If I did black and ivory, would my white dress look weird with it?

    I don't think so. We had lots of ivory shades floating around--on flowers, on centerpieces, paper products, ribbons, etc, and my dress was SUPER white. I like varying shades of things tho--i'm not big on eveyrthing being the *exact* shade b/c it feels too matchy matchy for me. And it is a pain to do =]
