    Hi Bees!

    In an earlier post I was upset about moving our wedding from May til September 2011. Well, I've come to peace with it because, as FI reminded me, we don't want to spend the first week of our marriage eating ramen noodles!

    So, how does Wine colored satin dresses from Davids Bridal, burnt orange calla lily bouquets, and chocolate brown pearls sound for the bridesmaids?

    Would an all white bouquet for me clash with that or should I get a more colorful bouquet?

    my friend did a similar color scheme for a fall wedding and it looked great...but instead of a white bouquet for herself, she did a mix of all those colors....she had wine, orange, gold, brown, and i think i few other fall colors. and she used some branches/fall leaves in some of the arrangements, which turned out really well.

    I think it's a really pretty color combo but I don't think that I would incorporate all three colors in the BM attire.  That's a little overkill to me - not all aspects of the wedding need to have all three colors.  I'd do the wine dresses with maybe orange and white flowers, gold or brown shoes, and standard cream/white/ivory pearls.

    I love those colors and they will be so pretty for a september wedding. I think all three of those might a little much for the bm's like the pp said. What about a different color bouquet, you could always have a colorful bouquet and have your bm's have a neutral color.
