Help! Wedding Colors Help
Hi, I need some help with picking bridesmaid colors! I thought I had it figured out, but I can't decide now 🤣 I was thinking about something like one of the first two photos for the vibe, but then I put some swatches together and can't decide. My fiancé hates the ecualyptus swatch and says it looks gray in some lights, so he wanted me to maybe try a dusty sage or something similar to see if it's lighter. We kind of like the lighter colors to break up the dark, but we also kind of like it without the light color. I'm just confused lol. Please help 😆

I was recently in a wedding party of 6. The bride chose 3 colors and we did 2 bridesmaids in each color (some bridesmaids had preferences on which color they wanted, some didn’t care). She had us pick the style of dress we wanted as long as it was her preferred fabric (chiffon). This worked really well for us using Azazie!

I mean I can see the difference in colors all together it won’t make a huge difference in the visual.

Love the teal and evergreen. The lightest green is very hard to wear. Skip the light color and break it up with floral.

Make absolutely sure you hire a photographer with an editing style that is true to natural color.

The repeating colors effect is cool, but sounds tricky to implement in practice -- what if one bridesmaid gets sick right before the wedding and then the pattern doesn't work? Since you like the look of different colors together, I''d recommend giving your bridesmaids these inspiration swatches and letting them buy their own dresses in styles and colors they like, maybe with a guide style if you like the matchier look here
