I thought I had it all figured out until I started playing in paintshop.lol. I have two maid of honors and 1 junior bridesmaid for my April Vegas Wedding. The girls picked out the dress and I had decided on fuschia with black sashes, BUT now I see the black with fuschia sashes and that looks really sharp as well. I should tell you the guys will be in black tuxes, black shirts, black vests, and fuschia tie. My lil ring bearers will be wearing black pants, black shirt, and of course the fuschia tie. Whats your honest opinion on my combinations? Thanks psers!!!

I love the black dress with fushia sash!!

Black and fushia were my colors too! My girls wore solid black dresses and fushia shoes! It was adorable!

I am horrible at visualization but what if the Maids of Honor wore black with fuschia sashes and the Jr. Bridesmaid wore fushia with a black sash?

I love the black dress with fushia sash. Honestly, I don''t know how I feel about the fushia dress, maybe for the little ones, but a BM may be too much. That is totally MY opinion, and you may pull it off and look GREAT! I like the clean slate and accenting with a lot of color.

Let us know what you decide on! Good Luck

I was going to suggest the same thing as jmtomaui. I would put the MOH''s in black with fuschia and the Jr BM in Fuschia with black. I''d do this for two reasons:

While I love fuschia I am not a huge fan of wearing fuschia. For a younger girl though i think it would be very appropriate. Also, if you went with black, your MOH''s would be much much more likely to wear the dresses again, which is a big plus for me. If you are worrying about it being too bland, you can have really bright pink flowers to go with the black dresses, where as with fuschia the bright flowers would get lost in the dresses.

Since you have such a small party, why don''t you ask your MOH''s which they would prefer to wear since they will be the ones shelling for them.

I like the black with fuschia better too but I think that against the guys it would look better as fuschia with black.

ETA: I didn''t read all of it, just saw the pictures and went with it. I think the combination you have works. Let the MOH''s where the black and the jr. bridesmaid wear the fushia,as someone said, the fushia on the little one is fitting!

Definitely black dress with fuschia sash, even for the Jr. bridemaid. Without only 3 girls on the wedding party, I prefer the same color for everyone.

I am actually doing something very similar, chocolate brown dresses with a hot pink sash for my MOH and the opposite for the tow BM''s although now that I think about it, I might have all three get the chocolate brown with the fuschia.

This was the combo I was thinking would look best! I really love the black dresses with fuschia sashes!

I like the black with fuschia sash and agree with the above poster that since you are only having 3 bridesmaids including the jr. bridesmaid, I''d do the same for all three. Love the color combo, I was going with the same color combo and then went to pink and chocolate. I''ve seen some really pretty fuschia and black wedding invitations, too. (I don''t know if you were doing those, but just thought I''d share) Everyone is going to look awesome. I''m doing Vegas, too!

Ok psers!! I am going with the black dress with fuschia sash! Now, since I originally was going with the fuschia dress, I bought my sisters(mohs) black dangly earrings and a very settle black bracelet(small beaded), and black strapped shoes. Will this combo still look ok? I will post the pics and please let me know. Also, the guys will be in all black with a fuschia tie. My fiance will have a pink bout and I was thinking a pink pocket square, what do you think? to make him stand out as the groom??? The gm will be in all black, fuschia tie, and orange bout, no pocket square. Any suggestions would be wonderful!! I am just trying to bring in the pink, so it doesnt feel like a funeral. I know that formal weddings are black and white, but you know what I mean!!!
