Same or different color?
Posted: Feb 13, 2008 5:00 PM

I want to have my maid of honor in champagne and my other bridesmaids in wine. Do you think this will look nice or will she stand out too much?

I think the colors are perfect,champagne is pretty much neutral so paired with any color it will look great go for it! I read your other thread Champagne is part of your color scheme so it won't look odd at all IMO.. the colors can be tied in many different ways you can start with flowers or adding a wine sash to the MOH dress.

Well first off, if you like that go for it. It doesn't matter what WE think. It matters what you want.

That being said, I might shy away from it. Unless it is a very distinct champagne you may want to shy way from it. That can look VERY bridal if you aren't careful.

Would it be the same style dress? Or different? Would it have wine with it (sash, flowers ect.) 

You might want to consider putting the MOH in the wine, but with an champagne sash. 

Or, completely disregard my opinion and go for what will make you happiest.

I don't think it will look weird as long as you have plenty of other champagne accents in your decor.

oooh, i like samala's idea.  maybe a variation on it too.  keep moh in champagne with a wine sash just so it ties it all in.

I think that's an awesome idea! It will make your MOH stand out, and not in a bad way. Those two colors would look gorgeous together. Do you mind showing us pics?

I love the idea. I think it sounds really elegant and they will definitely complement each other. Will you have slight differences in the bouquets?
