Groomsmen in Midnight Blue. What color should bridesmaids wear?

Megan, on May 12, 2017 at 4:16 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 33

My groom and his men will be wearing midnight blue suits or tuxes for our wedding. And I am struggling to determine what other main color I want for my wedding - i.e. what color the girls will wear. It's a beach wedding in Sept, so I am thinking a lighter color to offset the guys. Currently thinking either a blush pink or a dusty/perhaps even grayish blue. (I asked the girls for their opinion and half said pink/ half said the dusty or grayish blue.)

Anyone out there use a midnight blue in their color scheme? What do you pair with it?

    Wine with blue is a classic look.

    I do like wine and maroon with the blue but i feel like that doesn't fit a Sept beach wedding.

    I think the pink would look good! Good for the beach too.

    What about a lavender? It's kind of a mix of the blue and pink so all girls may like it.

    I think a brighter, contrasting color would be really pretty. Any shade of pink or even coral (depending on the shade of blue) would work well.

    On a practical note, there are several threads discussing how hard it is to find dusty blue dresses.

    I also am using midnight blue and paired in with blush and ballet pink, ivory, and rose gold. I am having an outside summer wedding in the mountains and lean towards the romantic side of decor planning

    I like the idea of blush with the navy!

    Blush is a hot color right now and would complement navy nicely!

    Our GMs are wearing navy suits and the girls are wearing dusty rose. Blush would look really nice too.

    I see a lot of midnight suits now; I really think almost anything would go with it, it's very neutral.

    Blush would look great, but especially ivory / champagne.

    I personally think blush and navy is a little overdone right now, but it's also still pretty. Maybe you could do a lavender?
