I want a Gold Princess(Fairy tale wedding) what colors for the bridesmaids?

Question

My wedding is next July. I have a champagne dress with a catherdal train and gold detail. The men will were ivory suits but I have dont want to but my ladies in latte, taupe nor brown. What color scheme would be best? I am open to all ideas.

Answer 1

maybe a royal red... or deep blue...dark violet...or a light silver to contrast

Answer 2

a rich Red would stand out beautifully.....

Answer 3

Is bronze too close to gold for you? One color that could work is royal purple or violet. Who says that you can only have intense colors in fall or winter?

Answer 4

maybe a cream colour would be nice...creamish pink....

Answer 5

you'd probably wants darker, rich, lavish colours to make your dress look gorgeous. so burgundy is an option. i love the idea of dark blue, navy. hunter/forrest green would be good.

but my favourite idea is a rich purple. it is a royal colour and sounds like it would be gorgeous next to your dress (which sounds beautiful by the way). they would offset each other wonderfully i think.

but if you wanted lighter, or less strong colours you could try dusty pink (velvet maybe?), not too light nor dark.

or a sky blue (satin maybe?) which are beautiful princessy colours in my opinion, and go beautifully with gold.

another option is a light clear pink - it is princess like and would go with gold as well. like little roses next to a crown!

congratulations and good luck!

Answer 6

i would do ivory with gold sash and accessories. Very pretty.

Answer 7

I think a complimentary colour such as an earthy or a light green would look great. You could use gold or champagne detail to tie them in with the theme further.

Or you could have them in ivory dresses with gold or champagne detail.

Answer 8

depending on how dark your champaigne dress colour is, how about haing your maids in a darker shade of gold?

The bride in this pic has an off-white dress, groom in white and gold maids with yellow tones flowers;

or

How about a copper colour, I personally think it would blend in nicely;

Pink also could be a safe one;

and also certain shades of teal blue can complement gold, creams and whites

good luck

Answer 9

Any shade of blue would go great with your color scheme.  You don't want to go earthy colors, because you want your dress to stand out.  The men can also wear blue shirts, or ties and cummerbund to tie them in with the bridesmaids.
