Bridesmaid dress colour

'In' is whatever you want it to be, of course there are 'in' colours and without searching on the internet I wouldn't have a clue. My BM dresses are blue, they were sapphire blue and matching but are now mis matched blues (oasis and ocean) Why? because I like how they look and nothing more than that. I had a button bouquet made and it was named 'A daydream in Blue' by the designer and that's what I've gone with...hues of blue. I like it but your taste maybe a single colour or 2 colours. You could think about the time of year that you're getting married and what colours you associate with each season.

I'm sure that you'll get lots of ideas and suggestions from the lovely ladies on here, best advice I can give....enjoy your planning and don't stress about what is 'in' ?

Since I chose black and white for my wedding it seems to have become really popular!! I chose black because it's my favourite colour and I don't really care that people say it's like a funeral.

How about thinking about what flowers you want and matching from there? Or a popular thing to do is to have the bridesmaids in different colours. You could choose pastels or deep colours.

If you're buying them from a wedding shop then the world is your oyster and you can choose any colour you want. But if you want to stick to the high street then you will be a little bit restricted with your colours.

Hi there :0) I'm not far behind you- I turn 39 a week after our wedding this June!

Like you it's my first time (previous opportunities but only my OH cut the mustard ;0) )

Tbh I don't really care what is fashionable or the in/done thing- all the decisions we (that is of course the 'royal we'! ) have made have been purely because it's what we like. Stuff trends or tradition... Just go with whatever, wherever, whenever and however you like - its your day and noone else's. Besides, I doubt anyone would ever look at something at your wedding and think OMG that is like sooooo last season!! And if they do, they deserve a right good kick up the a**e lol!!

Incidentally our colours are pale ivory and gunmetal silver grey- love it!!:0) xx

I let my other half choose wedding colour, then I pciked the shade which suited bridesmaids

I went for these....

just because I saw them and loved them.

I didn't have a colour in mind before so I just went for a dress I liked and which suited my BMs.
