Opinions Needed...

Flowmojo, 23 November, 2010 at 16:05 Posted on Planning 0 32

As many fo you are aware, my dress is a very very pale pink...and im going for the theme Pink and Teal. Now, OH has changed his tune and thinks this is basically too 'garish' and said what about Pink and Yellow? Now, ive done the 2 below mood boards to show him.........what do you think!?

    Ooh, hard one Flow, I like both of them!!

    Although if I had to pick one, I would still go with the Pink & Teal x

    I personally think that the pink and teal looks classier but the pink and yellow does look fun and vibrant.. Im sure that doesnt help at all though, sorry...

    Stunning! I would say that though as this was my original colour scheme, until we decided on October and it went out the window in favour of Balck & White! Smiley sad

    I think if you keep the colours pastel then it will look FAB! The colour of your pale pink dress with the lemon, soft yellows...bellisima! Smiley smile

    I still love the pink and teal... not a fan of pink and yellow (too candy like)

    What about pink and navy or pink and green?

    I think they both look lovely, I think the yellow looks more different and fresh but i would say it was more 'garish' than the teal, I think the pink and teal is my favourite

    It is tough, I have had to use my hand to cover each moodboard so I can focus on one at a time.

    I think I prefer the Pink and Teal - but then maybe I'm the garish sort.

    TBH I think the pink & teal is a better choice (men, who'd have em lol!) but I think the yellow could work as long as it is a soft yellow (not an in your face yellow). This however is just my opinion & my theme is going to be pink & white ? Love the pink roses! The chair covers & pink decorated cake are gorgeous too. Don't suppose you've got any flashes of your pink dress? I'm still umming & ahhing over whether to go for pale pink or ivory ?

    i dont like blue lol the pink and green idea has come up, but it has a vintagey feel to it, which we are steering clear of!(through fear of ruining it, and not totally going for it, the venue doesnt lend itself to it anyway!)

    Teal - and I don't think its garish at all, they go together really well.

    I actually really like the pink and yellow... BUT to make you stand out, you dont dont want too much pink so the main colour would therefore be yellow and that might not be flattering for you BMs. I do like the teal, but was gonna pair it with a hot pink rather than baby pink xx

    Another vote for the pink and teal.

    I think it really works well with the lighter teal that you've flashed.

    I like the pink and teal too, if you were go with the yellow I agree with the others and would say that it would be better with a pastel yellow and pink as opposed to the brighter colours.

    Thanks for popping your dress pic up! That is very lovely, agree about the roses across the top but will be really beautiful once they are removed. I'm going to have a dress made (probably China) but hope to try a few pink ones on first. Pink would be sooooooo me but I know there will be a lot of OH's friends who will be surprised by a pink dress instead of white or ivory so it has got to look really exceptional if pink is going to work for my big day. Decisions decisions!!!

    I like the pink and teal

    As others have said the pink and yellow would work in pastels but i'm not so sure about it in a brighter version of the colour...

    I originally wanted cadbury purple but OH said no way so now we are having a range of pinks, from raspberry through to pastel and yesterday I bought mt bridesmaid dress material I found the perfect raspberry pink but I was worried all the pink would look a bit garish... so I bough teal fabric... though to be honest its more petrol blue/ teal. I'm only going to have the dresses this colour everything else will be pink and I think it will be a nice contrast...I've just bought 14 metres so i'm stuck with it now!

    Another vote for pink and teal!

    I do love a good pink/green combo - it's so pretty when it's done right Smiley smile

    I'm considering sage green/dusky pink myself though, so I'm biased!!

    Just a thought about the teal colours is that brides before have had a major headaches over trying to get teal accessories like ribbon for cakes, invitations etc to match the bridesmaid dresses so if you really want everything to match be prepared for a colour drama!

    I think the teal looks more grown up Smiley smile BUT i absolutley love pink and yellow together. If you want bright and fun and summery go for pink and yellow, if you want grown up and sophisticated go for teal!!!
