Rose Gold Wedding

I was going with Black and Gold. White for my dress. And was having white rose bouqets with gold ribbon. And Black bridesmaid dresses with a gold sash around the waist.

BUT….. Now i am leaning towards chocolate bridesmaid dresses with Pink Gerbera Daisies. Also having the pink Gerberas in vases with some nice smooth pebbles in the bottom of the vase, surrounded by tealight candles (i think they are called votive candles) as center pieces. What do you think. I would also use Chocolate brown chair sashes? or maybe pink would be better.

Im thinking pale pink, Not the hot pink for the flowers

Which do you perfer.

The black, red, gold

Or the Chocolate and pale pink?

Its an Autumn garden wedding (about 4pm), with an indoor reception.

Also, what season can you gerbera dasies. Is Autumn the right season.

Sorry if im asking too many questions. I am just looking for peoples honest opinions. Thanks!!!

Well, I think that the gold, black, and red would be a little over the top. After all, you want to be the focus, not the decorations, right? The pink and chocolate are way more subdued, yet elegant and very pretty. I would definitely go with those colors. As far as the chair sashes, I see nothing wrong with alternating, one pink, one brown. Or maybe have one table full be pink, and the next one brown. Mix it up. Or even if you have 15 tables, doing most of them in one color, and then only a few in the pink. It would be pretty no matter how you do that I think. As far as whether or not gerbera daisies will be in season, i’m not sure. Better to call the florist you plan on using, or any florist, and ask them. They’ll be able to tell you whether or not you could have them shipped from somewhere else too, and what kind of extra expense you might be looking at to get them out of season. It’s always more for flowers that are out of season, since they usually have to be shipped from far away.

Ok, so I ordered my wedding dress, only to get a phonecall a few weeks later saying that the bridal shop had screwed up, and that the dress I want is not available in the color they had suggested. I had ordered it in Diamond White (which is a creamier shade of white, and not that really bright blue-ish white) but it only came in Ivory or regular white. I didn’t think too much about it, and just said "regular white is fine," but then I thought about it, and I’m really fair skinned, and I’m scared the dress will wash out my skin tone. I can’t tan, and I called the shop to see if I could change my order, and it’s too late. What do you guys think? Can you find me a picture of the dress in white, so I can compare it to myself? All I can find pictures of is light gold, and pearl rose… That would be amazing! thanks!

Don’t panic! I ordered the exact same dress for my wedding in March ‘08, in regular white, and I am also very fair skinned, don’t tan, and I have blonde hair! I just had my first fitting, and it was great! I loved it! When I originally ordered it, I was cautioned against getting the white because of my skin tone, but I am very happy with the color of the gown (the saleswoman wanted me to get ivory). The only picture online that I can find is also of the light gold, but let me reassure you that the white will turn out just fine. Good luck and all the best!

Okay, just found this link for Victoriana in white. Check out the first three pictures on this website
