hate my colour scheme *sigh* **UPDATE PG2**

Absolutely. My friend got married in August this year and had the same sorts of colours in the first mood board and it looked lovely. Make sure you're happy with what you choose - it's your day!

I love it, I wore a navy and teal dress to a wedding this year with my turquoise wedding shoes, they go lovely together!

The green and blue in my wedding flowers went well too... I had turquoise blue ribbon on my bouquet.

Mrs C where did you get that dress and shoes from lovely

and DWC where did you find those mood boards.

I think the colours in those are gorgeous

I am going to navy and ivory i think but it may vhange once i start bridesmaids dress shopping and see what the girls look right in

Dress was in the Warehouse sale - £35!

Shoes were from Ravel - £65 (I also have the matching bag!!)

I love the idea of Greens & Blue's together. Navy & Lime Green looks stunning together when mixed with Turquiose.

WSS ?

Love the peacock thing

Fab I feel much happier about this colour scheme than I did about navy and pink.

Fi, i just googled peacock wedding colours, and blue green wedding colours.

I showed D and he isn't sure about the peacock feathers so we might stick to navy, purple and bright green like in these flowers:

Or my second suggestion is going to be navy, aqua blue and green.

I love Mrs C's navy and teal combination!

I don't think there is anything wrong with navy and pink if that's what you want? What type of pink are you thinking of?

The green and blue is nice too and could potentially save you money on flowers as you can use foliage for the green which is cheaper than flowers.

Hi PP. I don't think theres anything wrong with navy and pink, i just don't like it. My bridesmaids have chosen navy blue dresses when i originally wanted green and now i'm sort of stuck with a colour scheme that i don't especially like.

I really wanted pink, lavender and green with lots of loose natural looking flowers and i don't feel i can have that now with the navy blue dresses. it just looks all wrong to me. I've never been a big fan of blue flowers either and i think the white/ivory flowers just look plain next to navy blue dresses.

Had a chat with my sisters and cousin this morning and they're all up for changing the dresses to green if we can, but SiL is kicking up a bit of a fuss saying that green doesnt suit her and she really loves the navy blue dress. Which is fair enough, the dresses do loook stunning in navy blue, really elegant. I just can't see a navy blue wedding in summer working SiL wants to come round and talk to me about it tonight but am feeling very fragile today and D isn't here to back me up so i don't want to feel pushed into a corner. I do feel silly getting so upset about some dresses though.

I was going to suggest the same as Sherrie, she has some fab mood boards there. x

With the best videographer www.film-by-you.co.uk nothing will be dull

Ooooooooh I love the peacock feather idea. I may steal it.................?

It's your wedding and the colour scheme plays a big part of it, I'd try to find dresses in the colour that YOU want with as little input as possible from your SiL. If she doesn't want to wear it then she doesn't have to be a bridesmaid!

Hope you get it sorted

PS I think the mood boards that everyone has posted are lovely but it's not the sort of thing you want then that is irrelevant.

WSS... you need to be happy with your choices.

I still think that you can have your flowers with Navy dresses...

How about Navy, Pink & Green and you could still have the Vintage, Summer feel to it with the flowers & accessories:

Bit of an update. After Annie suggested I should just change the dresses, I phoned up the dress shop and it turns out they hadn't yet sent the order. SiL phoned me to see why i actually wanted to change the dresses and i told her it was because i just don't like the navy blue colour scheme and she said would prefer navy but will wear green if thats what i want. So I gave the dress shop a quick ring and we popped in and have now changed the dresses to Sage Green and I feel much much happier.

Thanks everyone for your help. As beautiful as the navy pink and green is, and the peacock theme is amazing, I really had my heart set on pink and green so i'm thrilled I can now have that colour scheme.

Also massive Name and Praise for Halo and Ellis bridal shop in Preston. They've been fabulous today.

Soooo pleased it all worked out!

? for you!

I'm pleased too SM!

Glad to hear it worked out for you!

You can definately have navy blue/green for a summer wedding! If anything it looks classier tha some really garish colour schemes I have seen! Luckily the sun will brighten the day up and green is summery anyway. We had this colour scheme in 40 degree heat and we get lots of comments to say how lovely it all looked! Good luck!

FYI - If you're a supserstitious person when it comes to weddings and take to heart some of the lucky traditions (something old something new etc), then you may want to reconsider peacock feathers as they are meant to be unlucky! :-S

FS I've already changed the colour of the bridesmaid dresses back to green. Should really read whole threads. thanks for your comments though.
