Color Combo Dilemma (need your opinions!)

Okay ladies I need your opinions. I'm having a fall wedding (September) and I am thinking of doing these color combos. I really loves these colors together. Tell me what you think! :)

    My honest opinion is that you should do the color combo that you like.  I'm getting married in September too but I'm not doing fall colors because they aren't my favorite colors.  But the colors look great!

    The color combo is nice, but I think it may be a little dark. What about doing a jewel tone palate with a lighter tone/color as an accent?  If you do the red and purple, you could add turquoise or an aqua blue as an accent.  The cool tone of the lighter blue will play well off of both primary colors.

    This!  The colors you posted look good together but if you don't love them don't do them.

    Those colors are beautiful BUT I agree with everyone else and choose colors you like. Your wedding your way!
    Until the first full year of being one! Anniversary

    I would have never picked these two colors from the top of my head, but seeing them together they are really beautiful and elegant!  I say go with what you like.

    Definitely do what you want to do on your day.  I like the colors that you posted above though, you could add silver as an accent color to soften them a little.

    If you still need help. I used this website to help with different color combos.

    I say go for it! I was torn between orange and purple and was flipping through a magazine one day and came across a wedding with those exact colors. I fell in love! When I started telling people they couldn't see my vision and tried to talk me out of it. Needless to say it is MY wedding so I chose the colors that I wanted and you should do the same. I'm sure it will be fine.

    I'm a purple bride as well but I think you should pick the colors you like best. I've been all around the world on my color choices but ultimately decided on the ones I liked best not because it was the combo in the magazine or what everyone else thought would be "new" and different or thought was cute. HTH :)
