BM color suggestions for a taupe wedding dress?

I got my dress a few months ago and am totally in love with it - it's the Ian Stuart Florentina (I am trying to include the link but am new to posting so hopefully it works!). It is a taupe color, even a bit darker in person that in this picture. It almot has a silver-y look. I am having the hardest time picking out colors! I think we are having charcoal grey tuxes, so the bms could have dark grey dresses or I keep thinking about a soft yellow, or berry red....what would you do/are you doing if you have a non-white dress? Thanks!http://www.ianstuart-bride.com/docs/belle_dress_florentina.html

  • Personally, I'd think about jewel tones - sapphire blue, burgundy, eggplant purple, hunter green etc.

  • I love dark grey BM dresses, Priscilla of Boston makes a really pretty shades of grey.
  • I like the idea of a berry color but I think more on the pink/purply/fuschia side.  Red would work too though.  If you do yellow I wouldn't do a pale yellow but a bright or mustard yellow but it would need to be a short dress so it depends on the formality of your wedding.Black or chocolate brown would be pretty too.  No on silver but the charcoal grey (3rd pic is my fave) that PP posted is nice.  Pretty dress though! GL!
