What to do if bridesmaids don’t think wedding color is flattering on them?

I chose the colors blush and gold for my wedding because I wanted something romantic and elegant and those colors seemed perfect for me. I was planning to have the girls wear blush dresses and went shopping with my bridesmaids and not everyone was too thrilled about the color saying it washes them out. We went to David’s bridal and the shade of blush I want was only available in the vera wang collection by the girls didn’t like the styles of the dresses. The petal pink shade in the David’s bridal collection was lighter than I want and actually made some of the styles they liked in other colors look cheap! My bridesmaids kept seeing dresses in other shades like purple and blue and saying they liked it better. My mom told me I should change the colors. What should I do? I haven’t really bought anything in my color scheme yet but have scheduled to pick out linens, etc next week. Has anyone found designers that have nice shades of blush that are rosier and less pale pink? Do you think there is another shade for dresses that could still fit my color scheme and theme of “romantic”? Maybe champagne or light gray? Or should I just give in and change my color scheme and vision for my wedding completely?

    Literally am going through the same thing. My colors are blush and grey. We just decided to expand the palette to blush, grey, dusty rose (david's bridal ballet) and a little dusty blue. You can definitely coordinate 4 colors. My girls are all fair skinned and don't tan easily. They looked naked in blush. And looking like you're surrounded by naked bridesmaids doesn't make for good pictures anyways.
