I need some help. I am trying to choose what color to have for the bridesmaids dresses. So far everything is pretty rustic/nuetral lots of whites and leaves and things. We also have a bit of a berry theme going on here are some color options, against a picture of where the ceremony will be:


(flame, claret, moss green, silver, ocean blue)

Here is another view (but without the silver as you can imagine that...)



This was sent out for our engagement party- we are also graduating from law school so it is a joint kind of thing:

 

And this is our save the date:



the reception site is at my parents barn- which is just wood colored. And for the tables we are probably going to go with tan tablecloths and white flowers but I am having the hardest time making up my mind! What do you guys think?

    What a gorgeous setting!! 

    I love the 2nd one...claret!  I think it pops against the surroundings.  I've never been a fan of true red...I always preferred wines or reds like claret.

    I actually think it would be lovely if you had the girls in a mix of the flame and claret! It captures the berry theme well.

    oooh. I like that idea, there is another color or two we could work in if we did that. You dont think it would clash with the red of the roof, reds are so tricky!

    (claret, flame, firecracker)

    I voted for flame, but also like claret.  Now that I see that pic with the 3rd red color, I TOTALLY think you should do that!  It looks awesome with your berry theme!

    I voted for blue, because I'm bias since I plan on having my BMs wear blue.

    But the mixture of claret, flame, and firecracker look perfect!

    My color is claret, but I voted flame because it pulls in the roofline color and also pops against the other colors.  JMO. :)
