I have picked out my bridesmaid dresses but cannot decide on the color. The guys are wearing chocolate brown tuxes, my DF is wearing a champagne colored vest and tie, the groomsmen are wearing apple green colored vest and ties. Our colors are chocolate brown, champagne and apple green. Here is my bridesmaid dress...
#1
I'm contemplating the green but with mocha trim. The girls will be carrying green bouquets though,
#2
Could do the brown but with green trim or champagne trim.
#3
Could do the gold, with champagne trim or mocha trim. The green does not look good with it. What do you think? We are going today and I really just can't decide! Help me mamas!
In my opinion, having the girls in brown would be tooooo much brown. That's a lovely green color and to have them match the accents of the men would be very classy. Looks lovely!
See my mom thinks too much brown, my MIL thinks the brown would be "classy". My mom wants me to go with the gold color, the girls don't want to wear gold. And at this point I just don't care anymore. I just want a color for the dresses and be done with it! I really want the girls to carry green bouquets though, if they have on green dresses are the bouquets going to blend in?

I like the green too, I have one bridesmaid claiming that the green is too springy for a September 5th evening wedding. I don't know I just need to pick a color and tell everyone to shut up and wear it. lol, I'm not good at that though!

I love the dresses..
the green is my fav.
I like the green dress. I think it would look great with the brown suits the men will be wearing. But I noticed you said they will be carrying green flowers. I think it would be a good idea to maybe do a different color flower so it doesn't blend in so much with the dress. Maybe a champagne. You could always get white and dye the flowers if you can't find any to match.
I have one olive toned bridesmaid the other 2 are a little paler, that is why they don't want to wear the gold color, they feel it washes them out. Blah, so many little decisions in a wedding, stressing me out!

I chose number 2. Consider the skin tone of your bridesmaids....if they are pale then the green would wash them out. Also if they are carrying the green boquets, I think the brown would be a nice contrast. But I did like number 1 too!
