RIght now I am trying to figure out what green accessory I can incorporate since our wedding is purple and green. I tried to get some feedback on the other board with no avail. Can my April brides help me out? :)

    I would say accesorize with green jewelry- maybe get some beaded earrings and necklaces- try Etsy- they have a lot of places with sets. I'm using red jewelry with my turquoise dresses to bring all my colors in. It works! And then maybe a green ribbon around the bouquet stem?

  • Ps. anyone think it looks weird that one of the girls dresses is on the opposite shoulder? It was so hard finding the same color and fabric for everyone, I was hoping this detail would be unnoticed.

  • I wouldn't worry about the opposite shoulder, I didn't notice it at first glance.  Dresses look great, I am also doing dessy dresses for my girls.

    What about green pashminas for pictures... could be a nice pop of colour!
  • I had to go back and look at the opposite shoulder! I think they are really pretty and no one will notice.

    I also think the beaded jewelry will look really cute!!

    <div>I LOVE Dessy! Great choice! I bought all of them online and they saved about $100 off the in-store price. They were all $145-$165 per dress</div><div>
    </div><div>Pashimas are a great idea! April in Pittsburgh, Pa can be cold- so I will definitely look into that!</div>

  • I think you should only partially wrap your bouquests so the stems show, that will help add green.  You can do a green earrings or a bracelet but I wouldn't try to do too much green, the dresses are very pretty on their own without trying to make it further match your theme, it already does match your theme!

  • I ordered these clutches as gifts for my BM's from KaraMiaSofia on Etsy.  They were great little additions to the dresses and the girls loved them.  You can choose the fabrics and colors and add a personal note that is sewn inside the bag as a thank you for each girl.  You could get these in green and it would be a nice little pop of color.  They are also inexpensive when you buy them as a set.

    I believe she is on vacation until early September so you can't view all the options until after, but check it out when she gets back.
