Blah! I can't figure out what colors I want! FH said he doesn't care. So I need some opinions. No matter what, FH and GM will be wearing basic tuxes with black. I'm not having them wear pink bowties or anything. The colors will basically just be used for the BM dresses and for the flowers. The ones I'm thinking about at the moment are a rose (kinda pink) color for the BMs with a light sage as an accent color (even though I don't know where/if I'd use it). And then I was thinking of a light pink and chocolate brown. Or burnt orange. I really have no clue. Any other ideas would be great. Thank you!

Depending on what colors you like, I think that pink and brown make a GREAT color combination and it is a very elegant color. Just my opinion. I had a hard time choosing! They are really great colors.

I think burnt orange would be gorgeous with red. I saw some pics of this on a site a while back. I'll try to see if I can find them and post it on here.

I like the pink and brown the most, but any of those colors would look pretty together. I am sure it will look great no matter what you decide to use.

Come on girls! I was hoping you'd all pick the same ones and tell me that the other choices were crap! It would make it so much easier! :p
I never thought about red with orange. I'll have to search for some pics. We're having a early Sept wedding, in case that matters.
One of the main reasons I was thinking pink and brown was because I bought a scrapbook kit with those colors and plan on using it with my wedding pics. Haha, so I'd be making my wedding to match my scrapbook....

Well, I'm going to go pour thru some more pictures. I'm really interested to see what burnt orange and red would look like together. And I have to go back and go thru bm dress again. If I did pink and brown, I'd like to have a pink dress with a brown sash or something. I want to figure it out soon. My FH gets a little annoyed with my indecisiveness sometimes. :p

We were thinking creams and champagne colors as accents if we chose orange. I think I've got a lot of researching to do. I can't imagine how people planned weddings before the internet!

Ask your BMs and MOH for input.

My turn to go against the grian, I can't even imagin pink and brown together. Yuck! Pink and black would be awsome. I voted for rose and sage. But it's your wedding, and I also like the idea of fall colors for a sept. wedding.
