    What Colours will go with my dress.

    Postby kimmieh on Mon Sep 05, 2011 6:07 pm

    I have purchased the most gorgeous Dark Ruby Red wedding dress. I was originally going to have my bridal party in black but then someone suggested a light champagne colour. Now that i have to think about it all I am in doubt as to what colours would oook right. I have around 5 months to decide and organise the dresses but I also want to plan my colours for my reception also. It is in a gorgeous place called Elizabethan lodge and is rather romantic, but I want to incorporate a little more and some of my love for Paris, anything Paris. Can someone please help. :scream: :vhappy:

    I agree with Anica - I think Charcoal will look great with Red

    I wore a ruby red gown and our bridesmaids were in aubergine / deep purple. I think it looked amazing.

    My stepm-Mum wore a red wedding dress and the bridemaids wore cream and red from memory and my sister and I (JM's) wore gold. It looked great together.

    My aunt also wore a red dress at her second wedding and had a light pink for the Bridesmaids. Also looked great together.

    But if your going for a Paris type theme, I think black, white/cream, silver or pink would be perfect.

    Go to black. Red and white are not suitable for her dress. you can also try a shade of blue / indigo or gray. Although Gray will be a little dull, dark gray better.
