Bridesmaid dresses attire & accessories ideas needed!!!

I need some help with color ideas and accessories for the BM & MOH dresses. I do not want the colors to crash at all. 
Our theme is a Beauty & The Beast wedding for June 2014. The MOH & BM's have ordered their dresses and they are floor length and Royal Blue, we plan to add a rhinestone sash to the dresses. We have decided that the shoes will be golden yellow to go with the theme. I need help in deciding what kind of bouquet should they be carrying? 
I am adding pictures of the dresses & shoe colors to give you a better idea. I need advice on how good the combo looks and also which color flowers should they have? White? Red? Yellow? 
Any ideas help!!!

  • Well first off, if the dresses are long, then the shoes don't matter that much. I highly doubt people are going to pay that much attention to your BMs shoes. They probably don't care at all. I say that the colors of their bouquets matters on a couple of things, what are prominent colors at your wedding, what is your bouquet going to be like? I think white flowers are cute, but it really just depends on the situation.
  • Thank you @deannagirly for the advice:)
  • I would have no use for yellow shoes. I would ask them to wear any style they like in gold if you insist on choosing the color. I regret even bothering picking a color of shoes for my bridesmaids because it really did not matter one iota and they're either not visible or not noticeable in every last picture.

    For Beauty and the Beast, I always think red roses. You could even do a single rose for their 'bouquets.' Or yellow flowers would work, if you still want to incorporate that color.

  • @artbyallie Thanks! I am re-thinking of letting them choose there own shoes since the dresses are long and they wont even be seen. I also like the ideas of the bouquets...I wanted to incorporate the red rose because B&B has red roses..thank you once again
  • I say go with a neutral or metallic for the shoes - I agree with PP - no one one will see them or care what they look like. Save your ladies some money.

    I don't really like bold yellow, royal, and red together for a wedding, but I think red roses could be nice. Or what about them having white bouquets and you carrying a vivid red bouquet?

  • @PDKH , those white bouquets do sound real nice & I like the thought of the vivid red bouquet idea for me. This is all very helpful!
  • Is it indoors/outdoors? A nice pale yellow would look good with that pretty blue.. Or red even..  Maybe keep the bouquets minimal so the sash stands out?
