To Faux or not to Faux in Spring

I need opinions....So we're getting married the 1st weekend in April. The weather can be chilly to warm but we will also be married on the water. With that said, I was looking at pashima shawls but also came across these beautiful faux fur shrugs. With it being the start of spring would it be weird looking (or breaking season etiquette) if my Bridesmaids wore faux fur shrugs over the pashmina shawls? I don't want the fashion police to comment that day. What do you think??

I think the faux fur would look nice.

I’d go with the Pashmina. Also, look at Peach Couture. The ones that I was considering were like $5.

Hey Jen!
I don’t think that the faux fur would look out of place, especially if it is still going to be chilly out! What are your BM dresses like?

They are navy blue off the shoulder gowns. That's also the shrug I'm looking to purchase. I think it'll look great. I'm hoping it's not tacky since its technically spring. Thank you for your feedback!

If you want it, go for it, it's your day! I think they'd look nice together, and it's practical if the weather is still on the colder side!

I think you should do whatever you want and makes you and your bridesmaids comfortable. It's your day!

I think it's totally up to you! The "fashion police" will probably only really comment on it if the bridesmaids seem like they're sweating because of them, which is unlikely with your date. Good luck!!

I think they will look great together! It definitely won't look tacky, that's not something that you need to worry about!
