Hello LI Knotties! I am getting married at the Cresthollow Country Club in August 2012 and Im so confused as to what colors to choose for my wedding. I think that because of the cocktail hour area's "South Beach" vibe I would like to stick with warmer colors. My bridesmaids are all shades from pale to dark. I really need help with a color scheme so if anyone could give me advice that has been there that would be great. Thanks! ;)

    Mine is Aug 2011 too - I'm doing Tiffany Blue with hot pink, bright yellow, bright orange, and ivory flowers. I was thinking about having my brides maids in a coral color since it is very pretty on all skin tones..

    Hot pink and bright orange seem to be a trendy color scheme right now.  I also think they happen to be nice colors for August.

    Yes I definitely think Coral is flattering on all shades!

    The hot pink/orange is definitely trendy right now. Instead of hot pink Im thinking of going more toward fuschia. This is so crazy because I thought this would be the easiest part!

    It's no harm if the girls' dresses don't match perfectly.  You can pick a color family and run with it, like if you pick pink, the girls can wear the shade of pink that looks best for their exact skin tone.  It adds a little variety, and lets each of the girls look their best.  Since they aren't all pale, blond-haired, blue-eyed, there's no reason their dresses have to try to make them look exactly the same when they don't.  Let them shine a little!
