Hello All,
Now, that I have decided on my color dress. The dress I fell in love with is White with silvertones. I want the bridesmaides to wear light silvergray dresses (or another color, not 100% sure). What color dress should I have my maid of honor wear? Also, The groomsmen and ushes will wear silvergray w/white tuxedos. Please help I want to add some color besides white and silvergray. It is a summer wedding. Can anyone please help me out with at least two colors that goes well with silvergray and would go well with any skintone :confused: .

My colors are light silver (platinum) and a medium blue (riviera sky is the color of the dresses). I think blue and purple are good colors to go with silver and look good on most everyone. If you're not interested in those colors, pink or a light green would be nice too.
Hope that helps!

My colors are white, light blue and silver. I think any shade of blue would look best with silver or bluish greens. I originally wanted Tiffany blue with white and silver, but had a hard time finding things in the right shade that I liked.

Of couse I would say blue...it's my fav; and in most colors it really does look great on everyone...pink & green are good...what ya think about red? It's a summer color (lighter shades)...hope I helped.
My colors are navy blue, deep pink (some call it hot pink), silver, and ivory. Take a look at my website and you can see how those colors go together. If you choose a different color the MOH can be the only one wearing that color or you can have her in a different style dress. The BM should have on the same color vest or cumberbun (?spelling) as the MOH so keep that in mind when choosing the color for the MOH.

oh my, what colors go with a silverish... I think that almost any of the light colors used in spring will look wonderful with silver, except maybe yellow. Good luck, keep us posted if you can.
I am in search of color ideas all the time too. I am having it in either April/May 2006 so I too run into the spring color difficulty. I am thinking a lighter shade of blue (not baby blue) with yellow and possibly touches of pink or green. Blue will definetely stay but the other colors may change in a year
Good luck

Here is something my fiance and I made up with some possible color choices. I have picked the lighter blue of cyan with a regular yellow. Used that to come up with a pink and green color that might work. I didn't know if you would have a white or ivory dress so I put both on the drawing (well not really a drawing).
Hope it helps if not let me know if you need a different blue. I was also thinking maybe a light sky blue.
Ok, I decided to use the same colors except change the cyan to a light sky blue. Here is what it looks like.
My fiance showed me how to work my Paint program so now I like to do the different things with it. LMAO.

you all are awesome, now that I have some colors to choose. I will get with my MOH (older sister) and get her final blessings. I'll keep you all posted on my final colors. :)

If you decide on some final colors but need some help again, let us know. We will be more than glad to help. After all that is what these forums are for.

Thats a pretty good idea. I went to walmart and brought home a sample of each paint card and placed it that way. I have a color blue between the sky and the cyan. Just dont know, hope all this falls into place sooner then later.

Just be cautious using the paint chip cards as they have a lot more colors and the one you choose may not be included in other things.
