    Thanks RedKitchie! I just love them and they are so flattering on a range of body shapes which is great for my 4 varying shaped girls! It's Dessy 2780 and the colour is actually lavender. On the Dessy site you can see the range of colours they do but you could probably get multiple Dessy dresses in this shade. I would say that the colour is every so slightly lighter than the picture suggests but it's very pretty!

    We are getting married in November and our colour scheme is ivory and charcoal, which is a nightmare, I can't find any Bridesmaids dresses in charcoal!

    Hiya Beachbum

    Yes my bridesmaids are going to be in the grey with an orange underskirt, doesn't sound very nice written down but it looks stunning and my flowergirls have the top half of their dresses as the orange the rest in ivory and my dress is going to be ivory and grey and I'm going to carry an orange bouquet of some sort.

    I managed to get all my dresses from one shop, they are alfred angelo designs, have a look at the website, I was luck enough to have them in the sale as they were classed as autumn colours, so grabbed myself a bargain, think I paid £90 for the grey dresses.

    Hope that helps,good luck with your search xx

    I saw a bouquet of hot pink flowers that I fell in love with early in the planning stagges. I didn't want it to be a pink wedding though so we've gone for everything except the flowers being in turquoise.

    We're having black and white with a hint of purple to break it up. Not entirely sure about which shade of purple to go with yet, but think it will be a middle to dark purple

    Hi, We're getting married mid Aug and have my dress already which is light champagne. I did want purple/blue for my colour scheme, but having second thoughts now after reading everyone else's.

    Now thinking that lemon/gold/choc brown might work better!! Help!!

    I have chosen a light royal blue colour, I based it on my bridesmaids dresses, I let the girls chose any dresses they liked and then the best one on them was blue!

    So now we will have matching chair sashes, flowers, men's cravats & hankies, table crystals, cake decoration, favour bags, balloons and stationery (I think that's it lol!) Then my accent colours are ivory and silver ?

    These are my bridesmaid dresses (apologies for the huge pic) we are trying to match the chair covers and cravats to this colour. Not sure what to accent it with. I was considering ivory but my dress is diamond white and dont want it to look a dirty white next to the ivory. Considering silver.

    Well always new it would be Blue, just not what shade, liked turquoise and Royal Blue but went to order BMs dresses yesterday and fell in love with Petrol Blue! this will be with Ivory and Silver. Big day is the end of September so wanted a vivid colour that went well with the differnt completions of my BM's.

    I had these BM dresses! Smiley smile

    In black though and MOH in red. If my MOH was taller I would have gone for the full length version...

    ETA: These are Dessy dresses. Style 2760 (I think). You can also have the colours of the flowers changed so it contrasts with the dress if you have two colours.

    We are having a red with flashes of black and ivory through.

    Trying to find a centerpiece that incorporates all of that have tried this today:-

    We are getting married at the end of September and our colours are white, silver and yellow. I'm obsessed with yellow roses so that was really the only thinking behind it!
