different shades of pink???

almostmrsStimpson , 6 July, 2014 at 21:30 Posted on Planning 0 4

Would it look ok if my Oh and groomsmen are wearing hot pink cravats and my bridesmaids wore a different shade of pink? I cant picture it in my head so thought I'd ask. Our flowers are hot pink, pale pink and white gerbera daisies.

    I think it would be great. sometimes things that are too co-ordinated look too much. shades look far more relaxed yet still together if that makes sense!

    also, if you try to match exactly and it is very slightly different it can look more wrong than a complete shade difference.

    I'm also having different shades of purple.

    A friend of mine had her bridesmaids all in different pinks and it looked fab!

    It's the amount of blue/orange in the colours that makes the difference, so it the hot pink and the pale pink are equally bluey/orangey it will look lovely. As an example: in Melancholia's picture above the bridesmaids look great with the mismatched look because there are three of them but if there has only been two then the two on the left would have worked and either of those with the more orangey one on the right would have clashed unless the flowers or something brought them together. Thus if you are only having two pinks, bridesmaid vs cravats, try and get them in the same hue, although different tones.

    We are having different shades of peach! The BMs are in nude with peach coloured bouquets and peach nails and accessories and the men have nude flower button holes and peach coloured ties. Tbh I don't care if it's all a miss match. In my head I think it will go and the main photos I want on the day are of me and OH. That will be the one being framed on my wall. It's all me me me! Hahaha. T yes I love the idea of different shades
