My fiance and i are getting married in July 2017. When I started wedding planning I knew I wanted to incorporate purple somehow -- it's one of my favorite colors.i decided to go with a plum color with a warm gray and blush/peach and gold accents. No one said anything until recently. Now everyone is telling me the dark plum won't look good bc it's a summer wedding and that I should do a lighter purple ibstead. I was thinking the 2nd plum color from the right in the.picture. what do ya'll think?

    Saw a wedding today w a similar palate. You are good to go. I think that it would be refreshing for a July wedding.

    It's not like your whole color palette is dark, you have mostly lighter/ neutral colors and one dark one. Go for it!

    ETA: my BMs will be in navy for late May

    I am getting married in August and my colors are Royal purple and pewter which is a dark gray so I can think it's matters about the seasons

    Jessica! I've been searching high and low for deep red bridesmaids dresses. Did you have any luck with this?
