Victorian lilac and silver colors? Anyone have any pictures or ideas for these wedding colors?

My wedding is in September and i was thinking about my bridemaids wearing Victorian Lilac dresses. different dresses all in the same color. Any one have pictures or ideas?

Victorian lilac and silver colors? Anyone have any pictures or ideas for these wedding colors?
We used navy blue and silver and it looked gorgeous. I wouldn%26#039;t listen to those that bash silver as a wedding color - it%26#039;s perfectly acceptable. Lilac and silver will look lovely.





And I also did the different dresses in the same color. We did the mix and match David%26#039;s Separates in navy blue. They all ended up picking the same skirt, but the 2 BMs picked different tops and the maid and matron of honor ended up picking the same top (coincidence). They LOVED being able to pick their own dress and they were very happy on the wedding day.

Reply:That would look cool, but maybe if you had different shades of lilac and they had the same dress... or different dresses. I don%26#039;t have any pictures, but you could go to www.DavidsBridal.com and they have a virtual picture that you can create and see whether or not it%26#039;d look sweet!


Hope i helped, and congrats on the wedding!

Reply:I love the idea of lilac as a color; the silver, not so much for a wedding. Lilac was one of my four colours; also had pink, yellow and teal.


The idea of having different dresses in the same colour is really hot now - recently saw a pic of a wedding like this, the girls were wearing green - and it looked so classy - one had strapless, one short sleeves, one spaghetti straps, and one with a little jacket over probably a sleeveless dress.
Reply:I don%26#039;t think the silver will be necessarily bad if it%26#039;s used as an accent rather than a base color. I love the different dresses idea. i was in several weddings like that but we would alll have matching jewlery (that%26#039;s where the silver could come in) or use silver ribbon to tie around the girls bouqets. you may have already tried david%26#039;s bridal but i always love their stuff and you can see tons of colors too.
