Sea Glass or Dove Gray- Birdy Grey

Hi! Getting married on 4/5/25 in MA at a historic venue with high ceilings and exposed wood. Hopefully an outdoor ceremony (weather depending).

I am really torn on bridesmaids colors! My gut was dove gray with navy blue suits. I like the clean look. The question is Will it be too similar next to my white dress? And will it wash out pale bridesmaids?
I love sea glass would probably do charcoal gray suits or black. This color is still muted but is more colorful than the grey. Question- is it too dark? Worried as the venue isn’t super bright.
Looking for any tips of previous brides that may have picked these colors?

I didn't use Birdy Grey but the dove gray does look very close to white. I personally like the sea glass better. I will same they seem like two very different colors.

Haha yes both different colors. I want a color that is not too bold but also won’t wash people out! It’s hard to find the best of both worlds!

The sea glass has a very blueish tone that I personally wouldn't want with black suits. I also think the dove grey looks white.

Is Birdy Grey the only place your looking? If you want a grey I think Azazie's peddle is really pretty. It's dark enough that it won't wash people out but not too dark either.

What color suits would you do with sea glass? We are open for suggestions?

I am open to all color suggestions for bridesmaids too! I just don’t love the look of bridesmaids being in a super saturated color next to the bride (i.e., purple)

I'm honestly not sure. It seems like it could be a difficult color to match.

I'm also a MA bride and I'm doing Sea Glass! We're getting married in early June so I wanted something a little summery but still pretty neutral. The only issue I've been having is finding invitations/decor in this color. We're doing mutli-colored pastels for flowers so I'm having to lean into that rather then having everything match the Sea Glass color. We're doing charcoal suits with it
