Looking for inspiration. My wedding dress is ivory with a couple of black appliques on it. I'm trying to think of a nice colour bridesmaid dress to complement the dress but not clash or take attention away from mine. I have 3 bridesmaids. We've been looking at silver, lilac or burgundy and I can't decide. Our wedding is in June 2019. Thank you
Why not go for black?
I'd go for black myself... but then depends on bms ages. Could be hard to get black for children..
Black is a pretty obvious choice, although you could get away with just about any colour.
I'd say lilac, quite summery & goes with black :)
Black for older bridesmaids silver for younger child bridesmaids x
Rather than a lilac mabye a plum colour or black or even a slate grey colour xx
Personally I'd go with silver/pale grey with a black sash or something all in the same colour pallet
Turquoise, black and Turquoise wedding decor works really well together. That or cerise pink but that's more 'normal'
lilac will make your dress stand out the most, the other colours will drown your dress out :)
I would do turquoise or teal very summery and my theme would be black and teal/turquoise stunning. On the men as well.
Red
Defiantly a darker grey X
Black and silver.
I love black..
Hi I would go for lilac as it is a summer wedding :)
I would go grey/ silver
me peraonally for a summer wedding would ho for one bridemaid in pale pink one lilac and one turquoise xxx
Go for 2 silver & 1 lilac in the middle ....
Silver xx
Silver with black sash bow
Silver or really light grey x
Silver/lilac for summer
Red would look fab
I personally think a dark colour would work better. So you could do navy and then have the silver, dark green, dark purple/aubergine or the burgundy you mentioned would look lovely x
Silver would look lovely x
I went for a burgundy red
Go for a silver or a grey
Personally I would go for black bm dresses with silver accessories and gorgeous red flowers. It will look classy and elegant but make a statement. You will still be front and centre. Also black dresses can be used again so if you are strapped for cash can maybe ask bm to put towards dress as they will be able to keep them for another function xx
I would go with black dresses and white sash so opposite to yours or go with a silver/grey or a red or maybe deep purple with black or white sash so compliments your dress and incorporates the same colours :)
Any colour with small black detailing would go. I have seen a lot of hot pink and black, also mint green and black (if green is a consideration). Out of the colours you have mentioned though silver would be my choice. Silver and lemon go very well x
I think black or navy makes the bride stand out
Almost anything would go. Black is obvious but if thats not what you fancied then I would go for silver x
I had black and white theme colour wedding x
Black with a cream sash around the waist maybe
Silver/ grey
Any shade of blue x
All of the colours you suggested go but I'd lean towards burgundy with it being a rich colour

black or dark grey
Any colour will compliment white and black. I personally think.a blue or a red though
Silver x
Burgundy impact.
Grey? Maybe a dark red or purple c
I think Black would look stunning and would bring more attention to your dress with it having the applique. Looks great by the way !!!
Silver
I'd go for a lemon shade or a bit stronger. That would look very classy x
any colour would go well with black but how about dresses (whatever colour) with a black lace overlay? Would work well with darer tones. Or mint green and/red plain dresses.
Don't ever worry about someone taking the attention from you. A butt naked underwear model could walk you down the isle and everyones attention would still be on the bride.
My sister in law had a very similar dress to yours and had us bridesmaids in black dresses.. simple but still nice .. I've still got my dress as it can be used again and again.. also like someone has mentioned before.. no one will take the attention off you.. good luck.. and have a wonderful wedding xx
Not the norm but a friend of mine had a dress similar to you and had her bridesmaids in black and it was lovely (but they were all older - teens etc) x

My dress was similar I went with black for my bridesmaids xx
You could choose any bridesmaid colour and match it to your flowers and colour scheme because black and white are very flexible. I think if you wanted to blend in the bridesmaids either go for plain dark or light colours because vibrant colours would stand out against your black and white dress....
I'd go black or a dark blue.
Hot pink would look fab!
A matt grey would be nice :)
I had the men and bridesmaids in black
a light grey might be nice?
My dress was similar we had red and black x
My bridesmaids were in black lace dress worked really well.
Your dress is beautiful by the way xxx
Red colour x
I would go a dark red or purple
Would you not go with black? Very classy and elegant thought many people don't realise
Silver
My sister in law had this dress.... she had a lovely green, I will try and find a photo to post!! It went really well x
Hi I am wedding planner in Portugal ;)
Lilac and Silver are very comun...burgundy is definitely the best option if you want to be different!
My girls wore black and gold. I jad a black and white dress x
Charcoal Grey
Silver
I immidiately thought burgundy! X
Personally I'd go silver or grey with a black sash. Sash could have embellishments...beads, buttons etc to compliment the lovely details on your dress
I had a green colour and the photographer said it's one of the best colours to photograph & complements all skin tones and hair colours.
Shade of blue would look lovely
Lilac or a vibrant colour as it's a summer wedding, you don't want anything too dark. Either way it won't take the attention away from you as you are the bride. Xx
I'd say black? But burgundy would be nice
Personally I think burgundy would be lovely.
Black or burgundy
I married in black can get some gorgeous dresses x
navy blue with the same extras in white.
I would ho for black with silver accessories xx enjoy your day xxx
I got this for a ball but we're advertised as bridesmaids dresses
Burgundy x
Red x
Our burgundy dresses came from Dressystar on Amazon, custom made for no extra charge, saving on alteration charges.
I also had a black & white dress & went with black & silver for my girls x
I'd go with black
Grey nad Silver x
I think burgundy would look really lovely in combo with the black and white - agree that darker stronger colours would be better than paler ones
I had a white dress with black detail on. I went with baby pink bridesmaid dresses with a black ribbon round the waist
I'd say silver or black would be lovely
I would say silver x
I think any colour would go well with your dress, I love the detail on it x
Why not go for whatever your H2B's fave colour it is?
My dress had black on it too. We tried everything then decided on black dresses of various styles with the same gold wrap, sparkly gold handbags and shoes! xx
