Two different styles and shades of bridesmaid dresses?

I have a problem orginally I had two bridesmaids and one maid of honour, but things have happened and now i have one bridesmaid and my maid of honour. only thing is that they will now both be wearing different dresses, one in a champange colour and one in a very light almost cream colour... the dresses are both a line and both knee length but now i am worried that people will think it looks odd... has anyone else got different styles and shades of dresses - or has anyone been to weddings where they thought it was nice or odd that other people had different dresses...

I know that the wedding should be about me and my future husband and it is but I am a worrier... (silly I know) any feedback would be nice xx

I'm having 3 little girls and one adult - and they're all in the same fabric/colour but my adult is having knee length where as girls are full length so wont match in that area.

Its harder when you've got just two though, and I think with cream and champagne it'll look too different. And if those are the dresses you're thinking of, they're different fabrics as well so wouldn't match. I've had a look on the BHS site and if its the lace you like in the girls one, have you thought maybe of these:

http://www.bhs.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=13077&catalogId=34096&productId=5310361&categoryId=471576&parent_categoryId=471150

or

http://www.bhs.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&viewAllFlag=&langId=-1&storeId=13077&catalogId=34096&parent_categoryId=&categoryId=471109&productId=5310423

I think ivory would be a better colour match than champagne, and atleast you've still got the lace coming through. Its a shame BHS dont do others in cream as they seem to with others.

If its the champage colour you want, BHS also do this for little girls:

You are right it shouldnt bother me, but before I had two bridesmaids in one dress and my moh on the other so she stood out (this was my thinking) which was fine when there were two others in the other dress (if you get me) but now with there only being one in one dress and the other in the other then wondered if it would look odd... but you are right I cant afford an other so I will have to just deal with it hahah

As long as the colours dont clash (which I think that they dont) and the people are happy in the dresses then I guess I should just get on with the important stuff... sorry for moaning on here, ignore me hah x

Are they all having flowers? If so, I'm sure once they've got them in their hands, have their hair done all pretty too - everyone will know their bridesmaids ? Like the others have said, they dont clash anyways!
