On Monday, I wrote about a venue I had fallen in love with. It's a sweet little B&B/Inn with 14 rooms, and an amazing set up for both a ceremony, and/or reception..


Just to refresh your memory..

Anyway, the problem:
now that I'm stuck on this place, my previous vision for dresses/flowers/colours (silver, navy, cream, anemones, etc.) has totally changed! To make a long story short, I now picture having a laid-back, backyard chic type of function, with bright colours.. but, I don't now what colour of dresses I'd put my ladies in!


These are the colours I'm seeing, now.

As much as I'd love to have the girls in either the aqua, or pink/fuchsia, do you think it could be too bright (in the setting)?

What would you choose, if it was your wedding?

FYI, flowers would be something like this:

Bright oranges/pinks, wrapped in the aqua colour (although not necessarily these flowers).

Hopefully it'll be a May/June wedding, and I'd also like to have somewhat coordinating shawls for guests on the deck at night.. if that sways any colour decisions, at all.

If you went with the lighter colors in the first set of pictures - Id maybe go with sage green for bm dresses. 

If you go with the more vibrant colors (the vase with the bright aqua, fuschia & orange) Id go with black bm's dresses with bright colored sashes to match the flowers or the vase or whatever.
