Black & White theme

*J9*, 21 of October of 2012 at 17:39 Posted on Planning 0 13

Thinking of having black and white as my main colours with bits of fuchsia to brighten things up a bit.

What do you all thnk of black bridesmaid dresses? I'm having 3 BMs and 2 love the idea but the other thinks it's a bit morbid. Help!

    Our daughter had black/white/magenta with a splash of gold thrown in. She didn't have any bridesmaids but she had a Man of Honour and he wore dark grey as did the rest of the guys with magenta cravats. Here's a few flashes for you.

    I went to a wedding in June and the BMs wore black knee length dresses (they had sequins on them) with fushia shoes, it looked lovely.

    It's more common (not in a horrible way) to use black these days

    I love the black and white theme. We were going to have it before we chose to marry abroad! I think it looks so classy

    We were having black and white then changed it to aqua but im going to change it to black and aqua as its so hard finding aqua dresses on the high street and i dont have a large budget so cant afford dresses from a bridal shop! Im going to have aqua(fake) flowers and the men can have aqua cravats

    My BM's are in black with silver shoes and red flowers. I love black BM dresses, not morbid at all.

    Not morbid at all in my opinion, show her all those flashes and she will probably love it...hopefully!
