Help, do they go? - Wedding Forum

Hi all
I know this will require a lot of looking on you part but i don't know how to insert pictures.

i am hoping that you can help me with this dilema. I have ordered cornflower blue mori-lee dresses for my bridesmaids. I had initially decided on pink but this did not suit one of my bridesmaids.

The problem is shoes to go with it.
I had initially thought that silver sould look good, but all of the silver shoes seem to be really metallic, not what i want. Also i had wanted to have the bridesmaids with a bag and a corsage. But the bags that i am looking at are as expensive as the bouquet or are not what i am looking for.

Now this is the possible set up at the moment,
These dresses:

These are the bag and shoes:

Bags are the second ones over from the left on the second row in ivory, and the shoes the third pair over from the left again in ivory.

the corsages are:

double rose hair band, in ivory.

Basically, do you think that all of these will go, the accssories in ivory and the dresses in cornflower blue, as this will also make getting flowergirl shoes easier?

This is all to match my dress:

mine is style 2952 in ivory and blue.

I thought that i had all of it sorted then my sister (bridesmaid) told me it would look silly and i have to look for silver, so i have spent weeks looking to no avail.

HELP!!!
Please!!!

If its what YOU WANT go for it it is YOUR wedding after all

How funny! I just spent 20 minutes opening each web page, flicking through them imaging all the bits together then realised that the pictures had been posted further down the page! Gonna read the whole thread next time...

Anyway, I think they will look good but i think pink and ivory look good, you could still do it just change silver to ivory if you have no luck with shoes

Whichever way, you are gonna look STUNNING in that dress!

I like the blue shoes you have posted to go with the dress? Although you couldn't wear them again after I guess.

I think it all looks fabulous, decords had blue bridesmaids and pink in their flowers and it looked amazing.

Its yourw edding, and you tell your sis what to wear, I think that all looks great, and I love the bags, so funky.

I love all of it. The bridesmaid dress is gorgeous and a lovely colour. I know someone who got married in that wedding dress and it looked lovely. Have they just started doing it with blue I haven't seen it with blue before?

Ok i think there has been some confusion, all of the accessories would be ivory, including the flowers. This is where the problems arise, i thought that the shoes and bag were blue too but they are lilac and do not go, so thought about the same but in ivory.

Thanks rachelp for posting the pictures.

Thanks girls for the advice, will mull it over for another couple of weeks then go for it one way or the other.

Don't know if they just started doing the dress in blue and ivory or whether they always did.

Thanks
Joanne

I'm no fashion guru but I think the ivory accessories (which are gorgeous by the way) would go brilliantly with the blue bridesemaid dresses and would tie in with your ivory and blue dress.

I reckon you've got it cracked

I adore that ivory bag and the shoes will look great too, love the diamante detail, to be honest hardly anyone ever sees the shoes and my BM ended up changing hers anyway after the ceremony and photos!

What colour flowers are you going for?

joey77 · #11 (**permalink**) 27-09-2005, 09:57 AM

Going for the ivory rose corsage.
You have all made me feel much better. These accessories are all well within my budget, thank you.

but what colour will the main flowers be that you'll carry etc? will they be ivory and blue?

joey77 · #13 (**permalink**) 27-09-2005, 10:26 AM

Oh me!!!
They will be ivory roses, with blue iris's in through them.

I think that everything you have picked looks lovley I was recently a bridesmade for my Mom and I wore a very simular colour blue, I had a white drawstring bag and white corsarge, I wore silver shoes but that was just cause they were the colour I had the other BM wore white shoes and no one noticed.

They will all be looking at you on your big day. Check that your sister has got the right idea she might have missunderstood??

I think your choices are lovely..................

Ivory will look great, it is a neutral colour so will go with any colour dress and it will all match your dress, which is stunning

lissapink · #16 (**permalink**) 30-09-2005, 09:45 AM

Absolutly stunning idea go with it i have looked at this over and over and i cant see anything worng at all the colour blue is amazing and ivory goes with anything specially as your flowers will match too, and that dress is great the man behind her isnt bad too ha ha shouldnt be looking just married oops

(a very chezzy grin)
