Mixing fabrics for bridesmaids

Ok so here is my dilemma. I have a bridesmaid, my 10 year old as my maid of honor and my sister in law as a flower girl. We went shopping over the weekend and I let them pick their dresses they liked. My daughter and bridesmaid picked a satin dress and my SIL picked a chiffon or mesh. They are all the same color but is it going to look odd if they are different fabrics? It's in a cinnamon color from David's Bridal and there is a minor difference in color just because of the fabric. Am I over thinking this or is it going to be fine?

    There will be slight shade variations but it will look cohesive. Bride David’s or Pinterest for photo inspiration but it will look fine. The only time to worry is when the colors don’t look related.

    Flower girls usually wear something completely different than bridesmaids. There’s no problem with a different fabric and a minor difference in color.

    I had two bridesmaids in silk and one in chiffon, and I think they looked great. Some colors might show more of a difference than others, but I think it’s generally fine.

    I'm sure it will look beautiful IRL! I wouldn't be too concerned about them not matching because as you said, it's only a slight difference. Depending on the light, they might even look exactly the same. Plus photos don't always capture slight color variation!

    I actually prefer the look of different fabrics. It looks cohesive, but a little more interesting and modern.

    I think it will look fine. Flower girls usually wear something completely different from the bridesmaids anyways.
