Should I choose gold or champagne bridesmaid's dresses?????

Rachel, on February 4, 2015 at 12:46 PM Posted in Style and Décor 0 35

So, I found this fabulous website, Azazie, for bridesmaid's dresses, but I can't decide which color to go with. I ordered samples of the gold and champagne and both colors are beautiful. The gold is much more lovely in person than it is on the site and the champagne is a beautiful, neutral color. My main concern with the gold is that it's kind of trendy right now and I wonder if it is a color that I will later look at and consider tacky or old fashioned. I want my wedding and wedding photos to have a timeless air about them. So, I need your help deciding which color to go with.

Our flowers are going to be dusty pink, light pink, peach and burgundy and we'll be using gold as an accent color. Our ceremony will take place beside a pond, under a willow tree and the reception hall is a very elegant barn. I'll be incorporating gold into the reception decor a little too.

So, let's take a poll. Champagne vs gold, and go!

    Champagne. I like gold if it's glitzy, but I'm not a fan of the gold fabric.

    I definitely want floor length, chiffon dresses but I think I will give the girls the option to pick whichever style they like, as long as it's all cohesive and approved by me Smiley smile

    What do you think about both? It could look nice.

    If I had to choose between the two, champagne. But... they'd both look atrocious on me. Which color will flatter your bridesmaids?

    I love champagne, but I've seen quite a few champagne bridal gowns. It would be a little too bridal for me. I'd go with the gold (which is also very beautiful).

    I would do champagne.

    ETA: I was going to originally have my girls wear champagne but had a hard time finding dresses i liked in that color, so I went with blush.

    I might should add that this is my wedding dress. It has a "light gold" layer under the ivory lace with a "light gold" sash...

    I know you said you were using some pinks/peaches as accent colors, just figured I'd share my swatches if you wanted to do a mix pink, gold, and champagne.

    Left to right - Candy Pink, Blushing Pink, and Pearl Pink (what I'm using).

    @Elyse I also ordered the "dusty rose" swatch from Azazie. It's really beautiful too. I'm just stuck on the other two colors.

    I really like the pearl pink, though.

    My girls are in champagne too! Be careful with chiffon though, without a shimmer to it champagne chiffon is just beige. I ended up switching to a shimmery lace so they weren't a flat colour

    Gold. The champagne is too close to ivory in my opinion.

    With your dress, I say gold.

    With the gold accents in your gown, that's even more reason to go with the gold. The pictures will be gorgeous.
