So I'm in a pickle!

I have been trying to track down a stunning dress that I found a picture of on the internet. My bridesmaid found it in ONE shop in the country!!! Winner! So we went to try it on and its gorgeous!!! I absolutely love it!
But....
It's darker than I had thought I would go for, its got a bit of a goldy/creamy tinge to it, so it isnt ivory.
Im getting married abroad outside, so my theme was going to be multi-coloured flowers and aqua bridesmaids, groomsmen in ivory and aqua.
Now I cant have that!!! The blue would not go with my dress at all, all colour spectrums say it should be 'warm' colours. Also I dont feel that multi-coloured would go either. Probably burnt orange or a coral?

My question is...would you change your ideas of theme and colour scheme and flowers, including what everyone will be wearing because you have found the dress you really want???

Yep, I would indeed !! Especially if theyre only plans at the moment ! xxx

It depends if you already have stuff in those colours, if you do I would personally say I wouldn't change things now to fit in with colours of the dress, but if you haven't actually got anything in those colours, then i'd say it's not too late to change them. But again, it's your wedding so it's up to you what you do, it's just my personal opinion xxx

i had a gold dress and my bm`s were in fushia pink ..... have what you want hun not what the "colour spectrums" say you should have

I would go with what you want. If you don't have anything ordered yet in the original colours that you wanted then think about what you really want. If the dress is really the one you want then it might be the deciding factor. All in all it is what you want not what someone else thinks you should have xx

I think it would work. Don't dismiss your color scheme until you check the colors together. I have a very warm skin tone and some of the best colors on me are teal/aqua/blue...

I think as long as you haven't gone too far with the color scheme already and bought everything to fit in, it's absolutely fine - I had a set colour scheme in my head when I began planning, but that evolved over time and the eventual colour was decided by the bridesmaid dresses, which are a lovely dark purple.

That said, I think that a creamy goldy colour would go quite nice with aqua...could you get a material swatch so you could compare?

Xx

can you get the dress made in another colour?? If not, you have more than enough time to change the colour scheme. Even if you have bought things you can sell them on so you don't lose too much money, but if it is your dream dress go for it :) nothing better than feeling amazing in your wedding dress, and changing colours is such a small thing to feel stunning on your big day x

Some dress shops can offer the same dress in different shades. Is it not the case?

PS...gold and blue do work very nicely together... RAF mess kit is blue with gold trim! Very regal!

I changed our colour scheme for my dress. I originally wanted a sage green for my April wedding next year, but have bought my JA dress with a Caramel coloured sash from an essence of Australia dress. The sash makes the dress, it's perfect together, and the colour suits my colouring.as a result I have changed the colour scheme to caramel, or mocha, as it also looks, chair sashes, groom/ushers, stationary and bridesmaids now follow suit.
