blue debate..

I am definitely 50-50 between aqua blue and cornflower blue. Our flowers are going to be raspberry, fuschia, and light pinks. Originally I really wanted more of a true blue (like cornflower) but I'm still not sure how it would look with the pinks and how it would all come together. I also like the aqua and how it looks with the pink, but I fear that it would be a tad on the obnoxious side. I don't want to look back at my pics in 20 years and wonder what I was thinking. The dress that we are going to get is satin and has both blues. It is all in my bio... What do you think?? I know you girls will give honest opinions :)

    I'm partial to the aqua :) Personally, in terms of color trends, cornflower blue is post-peak/dying, and aqua is more on-trend right now.  The thing about color is that nothing is going to not look "weird" come 20 years, other than black and white maybe!  Do what you like best - we're all going to look back and wonder what we were thinking!

    yeah I think I'm more partial to the aqua too. The only reason I started to change my mind maybe is because the particular dress we're going to get is so pretty in the cornflower. I think in aqua its going to be pretty bright, but i've only seen a swatch

    If I remember the dress right, Bahama Breeze is pretty loud!  We used Belsoie's "Turquoise," which was very lovely.

    I like aqua over cornflower blue as well.  I think aqua also goes betters with pinks too (like what LS had for her wedding).  I really like th BM dresses that you picked out, but I would choose the aqua color.  Good luck!

    I'm very partial to the aqua (probably because that's what color my dresses are going to be) Plus I'm going for fuchsia and orange flowers! So you won't be the only one with "loud and obnoxious" wedding pics!! I don't think you're crazy at all!
