Help!

My best friend Britt and I found this dress at a vintage shop in Washington D.C. almost 2 years ago. I have been saving it for engagement pictures.


I love the idea of using the colors from the dress as a pallet for the wedding. Here is one arrangement I love.


The problem is when I see classic pink colors I think I might want that instead! (Trudy please don't hate me!) Here are some examples.


So here is where I need your help, which do you like more? Also, if I go with orange and yellows have you seen flower girl dresses or other ideas that would work? Please let me know. Thank you for your help!

  2. Jess, I don't think you can count my opinion because I am a pinkaholic. I love it, and can't see any wedding or event for that matter without a little of it. I have seen lots of girls do outfit changes during their engagement photos, you should just do that. then you get the best of both worlds. Whatever you choose, you will look great.

  3. oh jess,ha ha, i would NEVER hate you!
    the pink is really cute, but i LOVE the poppies too. i think the poppies are so unique. but the pink is so fresh and spring-y. poppies may seem fall color-ish....?
    pink will probably be easier to coordinate with.
    pink & cream VS oranges/yellows & cream?
    i love the cream...by the way! yay!

    whatever you choose will be GORGEOUS!

  4. Hmm, I love pink. However, the orange colors are so vivid! But I may be biased because orange is becoming my new fave. No matter, whatever you choose will be great:)

  5. I would agree that the orange and yellow are more fall colors while the pink is more springy. But who says you need to go with the colors of the season? The orange and yellows would be more unexpected in April. So I guess it just depends on whether you want a bold, striking color palate or a soft, elegant one. Be sure to let us know what you decide.

I think the orange and yellow would look awesome with a neutral like gray, black, or just white- but I am too much of a sucker for pink- especially when you stick those pink peonies up there! you have such great taste you'll make anything look awesome! have you checked out the site amorology? my bros finacee' showed us and they have some super cute stuff! miss you!
