Colors Off?

Heather, on May 7, 2023 at 1:22 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 34

We're renewing our vows in September. I paid for the dress & the alterations already but I go to pick it up June 1st. I am now having doubts. I'm hoping someone can reassure me. Do you think the blush dress will match the bouquet?

    Personally I don't think it matches, but I'm sure it will look fine for a vow renewal.

    I have to agree with the previous poster, I think the bright pink clashes with the dress. I would maybe look into changing out the pink flowers. Here are some examples I found online.

    I would but I have already ordered the bouquet and boutonnieres and the price of them cost more than the dress & honestly I wouldn't want to because pink was my mom's favorite color & the pink flowers that I'm having were my moms birth flower. Thank you for your honest opinion and posting pictures😁

    Hi, I talked to my wedding planner. She said the dress is beautiful & it should go well together. But to be safe I'm changing the color of my arbor decorations and she's adding in blush sweetheart roses to my bouquet.

    It will be beautiful since the blush color is in the same color scheme of the pink flowers. I used blush, pink, & lavender in my wedding & it was beautiful. I hope this helps.

    Thank you so much! You absolutely have no idea how good your reply has made me feel. I truly appreciate it.
    I talked to my wedding planner and the arbor decorations will now be a different color as well as adding in pink spray roses.

    This looks beautiful and I think it will go with your dress perfectly. I wouldn’t stress over the bouquet. The fact that the flowers are meaningful far outweighs the aesthetic.

    Thank you so much! I think so too. My florist will now be adding in pink spray roses along worth the white roses and pink gladiolus.

    Honestly, I think it will go together just fine. Things don’t have to be matchy matchy to look beautiful!

    Thank you! I honestly assumed they would. And I didn't want it all to look like a hot mess. When I held up the picture of the bouquet to the dress it looked beautiful, which is why I decided to try it on & bought it. Then I started basically obsessing with it & using Google & crying. Lol. But after talking to my wedding planner I feel so much better & I'm back to being happy & stress free(for now anywho lol).

    Adding blush flowers to the bouquet, etc, is a good idea! I didn't think it would match exactly but a few more flowers in more shades of pink should do it! Your dress is lovely!! And good luck! We're having a sort of vow renewal too - after 38 years married, we're finally having the Catholic wedding we couldn't have before, in June. I am wearing a street length lace dress , etc in a creamy ivory color (I considered blush too, but as ours is an actual "wedding", I wanted something more "bridal" looking) and also wondered about flowers. I sent a photo of the dress to the florist, along with a photo of a bouquet someone posted here - of roses in a variety of shades of white, ivory, cream, pale pink with greens and baby's breath. Florist agreed that would be best to vary the shades (it already took me 5 tries to match the shoes to the dress, 3 tries for a headpiece, 3 or 4 for a shawl, etc, etc, lol!!) Congratulations!

    Thank you! 😊 I was originally going for something much different but it seems my acne is much worse in my 30s than it was in my teens😔 Congratulations to you as well! Your dress sounds beautiful. Oh my goodness. Lol. I'm so happy it's all coming together.
    I'll admit, I really want a headpiece (tiara or pretty headband from a bridal store). My issue I'm starting to realize is that I'm not quite sure how either of those would go with my dress🥴

    A headpiece! How are you wearing your hair? If it's up, or back in a braid or bun, perhaps your hairdresser can weave in a few flowers in the same colors as the bouquet. If your hair is short or medium length, perhaps a small fascinator, in your dress color? If your hair is longer, maybe a headband in the color of your dress, perhaps with pearls or stones? Try Amazon, that's where I bought my entire ensemble and returns are easy. Your dress is "fancy" and as it's a vow renewal, not a wedding, you may not need a headpiece, but a more formal hairdo. Mine is a small bow with a tiny veil, same cream color.

    I'm honestly not 100% sure. I'm thinking half up, half down, or maybe all down. I know I don't want an updo. My hair isn't super long, but it goes a bit past my shoulder blades.

    Sounds lovely and if you have nice hair, you probably don't need a headpiece. Maybe a matching flower on a comb, perhaps with one side of your hair pulled back? BTW, how long are your married? Is this a "banner year" for a vow renewal - 10, 15, 20? We are married 38 years come June 1. I just got a church annulment, a few months ago, which is we're having this wedding in an odd year; the ceremony is June 4.
