Opinion on bridesmaid dresses

Brittany, on February 1, 2019 at 7:59 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 23

Hey everyone! I'd love your opinion! So, to have my MOH stand out a little bit, we both loved the idea of having her dress be a sequin dress. My wedding colors are wine/burgundy and gold. She purchased this beautiful cabernet dress. I love it! I don't necessarily think the bridesmaid dresses have to exactly match, because her dress is sequin so it will look different no matter what. Here are three swatch options from David's Bridal and Azazie. The first is DB's wine color with her dress swatch, the second is DB's Sangria color, and third is Azazie's Cabernet. I think Azazie's is out because it is much redder. It's unfortunate because I was hoping to use Azazie, but it's ok! Any thoughts on which one you think works the best? I was thinking David Bridal's wine color (first image). It's amazing how the "same color" can be so different!

    I looked again. The first is a little darker but not too off from the second. You could do either. And like you said the third is way too dark

    Thanks, Michelle. With the second image, the swatch on the right is much lighter/pinker.

    I like the sangria! Touches on the light reflecting off the sequins

    I think the first one (DB Wine) is the best match, the second one is close too, but I think it matches more with the light reflection on the sequins than the fabric itself. I vote for DB wine, if you want them to have matching colors.

    I love this idea (especially with the sequins)! I’m partial to the 1st pairing, especially if you’ll use burgundy in your color palette. If you were doing more purples then #2.

    I think 1 is the best match, then I like 3, the middle is too pink.

    I like the first one (DB wine) because is closer to your colors and the contrast from your MOH is just perfect.

    I think the sangria matches the best but the wine is a very pretty color and closer to burgundy if that's what your going for!

    On my screen, wine is better. Can you take her dress to DB and match it according to a dress irl?

    I think the sangria matches the best. The first one has a hint of brown to it and makes the sequins look purple to me. I think it clashes. Same with the third one, although that one has just a bit more red in it than the first one.

    This dress is beautiful! I think the sangria coordinates best. What a gorgeous pop of color!

    Cabernet, like Maroon, is a red-brown wine color. I like the sequin color with the slightly darker color. I wore an azazie a short time ago, in a sort of mulberry color, a pinkish mid tone wine, that is a closer match to the sequin color, I think. Azazie calls it Orchid. I looked up the color swatches. They appear close to my dress color. It is lighter and does not have the brown undertones of a cabernet, appears less reddish. I would pick that Azazie Orchid over any of yours to go with the sequins. And I do think it a nice choice to have the MOH a little different, to stand out.
