Mauve or cabernet bridesmaids dresses?

Kaylee, on February 26, 2019 at 5:08 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 10
My wedding will be in Florida in November and I want my colors to be elegant, yet rustic and I want the color to be flattering for every skin pigment. Mostly fair skinned girls in my bridal party. Help?

    Check out Azazie or Birdy Grey, they had awesome ones in both those colors!

    Personally loved the mauve ones and was about to go with them but chose some shades of Dusty Rose and almost light Cabernet (Jenny Yoo Cinnamon Rose)! Hard to decide but you’re in good hands either way on colors! Maybe you can let bridesmaids weigh in?

    I love mauve but I don't know how that would look on pale skin.

    You can always have your bridesmaids try on both colors and see which you like the best. My wedding is in Florida also but in January. I choose Burgundy, Gold, and dusty blue as my color scheme but am waiting to see which color dress flatters their skin tones.

    Azazie’s vintage mauve would be beautiful for a rustic beach wedding.

    Chianti from David’s bridal is like a darker mauve I’m using that color for my girls because they have all different skin colors.

    Mauve looks beautiful on a porcelain complexion. So no worries.

    Kaylee, I bought my bridesmaids gowns from CocoMelody. They have beautiful colors, but I highly suggest ordering swatches. What you see on a monitor is not the exact color in person. They had great prices, too.

    I live in Florida, personally we don't get a "fall" rustic type whether thats common for that time of year. My bestfriend did Mauve for her spring colros and they were beuatiful but definitely didn't have a rustic charm. My wedding is in October of this year in TN and we went with a dark dress color with a bright pop of color as an accent color to tie everything togetehr to get that elegant and rustic charm. We went with Navy dresses, gray tuxes and coral accents in bouquets, centerpieces and boutonierres.
