    Hello Ladies!

    So i have finally decided on two colors i really like. One is the 

     

    Horizon blue

    http://www.davidsbridal.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Category_-49998973?&colorName=Horizon

     

    and the other is  

     

    regency purple

    http://www.davidsbridal.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Category_-49998973?&colorName=Regency

     

    The colors look a lot different in person. THe best way i can describe the, is a dark purple and royal blue.

    I cant decide on what color to add to it. Like a light color. Should i even add another color?? MY main color will be the blue. With a little purple. I just need a color for the ribbons of the BD bouquets. My venue has kinda brown walls, and the lamps/ chandeliers are like a gold color. It will be at a golf course in the evening. 

    Heres a picture i took with my phone of the colors....

    What color is your dress? If you want a light color, you could use the color of your dress if it's white or ivory or champaign or something like that.

    I agree with Azula.  You need a lighter color like a champagne, silver, or even a gold.

    I love the idea of accenting with a silver color. You mentioned gold above though so not sure if the silver would go...you could accent with gold. :) You do need to do a lighter color, it will really make everything pop.

    I think gold would look lovely or maybe even a pastel/mint green.

    I would take a light color as 3rd color, so it won't get too dark.

    Here are a couple "themes" or "looks" you could go for by adding different third colors...

    Dusk in the city:  magenta

    High-contrast high-color:  golden yellow

    Sophisticate chill:  platinum or matte silver

    Whimsical and sexy:  hot pink
