Wedding colors for Fall 2007? Any Suggestions to improve PINK as a fall color?

I really want "pink" to be the color of my wedding party but I am running into some problems. We just booked the wedding for Nov 3, 2007. I was considering letting them wear david's bridal pick your own top and bottom. They only have a two pinks- a light one and a fushia one. Everyone hates the fushia one and I can't blame them- it's a funny purple color in person and looks terrible on everyone. I am considering letting them wear the light pink tops with black skirts... but looking at the lay out now.. it's not very fall looking. I am started to plan out the flowers and favors so I need to get a color theme together. Anyone have any suggestion to how I can make pink look more fall? Or should I change the color to a red or garnet?- the only reason I don't want to do this is I think it will look like everyone else fall wedding.

brown and a rose pink. think like deep pink, like the antique looking pinks you see. mix it with a chocolate brown, or perhaps even a wine/burgundy color. more reddish purple rather than red. that can also be an additional accent. brown and pink look really nice together and brown will help make it look like a fall wedding. but pick a rich warm brown, think yummy chocolate. (great way to include it in your favors) i think davids bridal has a warm brown...then tie it in with a pink sash or pink shoes...etc. congrats! hope that helps!
Reply:ouch...pink is a spring color so it will be hard to interact it with the fall colors...go to your local walmart (lol) go back to the crafts department and find the color of pink you want and just start putting different colors up against it until you find a color you like...one thing to remember is that this is YOUR wedding and if doensn't happen to fall into the "fall" category...is it that big of deal? you are getting married to the man and not the season...if matching your colors to the season is that important maybe you should think of the deep reds, oranges or yellows...sorry i can't be of any help but that is a tough one. also go on e-bay and see what they have for colors....the internet is awesome...use it :)
Reply:You could do the garnet dresses with a multicolor belt! I saw that in a bridal magazine once, It was so beautiful! Like a sash belt with all the fall colors in one, and the belt ties on the side and then the extra material hangs! Its so gorgeous, I wish I had done that!
Reply:If you really love the pink tops, try pairing them with brown bottoms to make it look more fallish.
Reply:I would go with either burnt orange or pumpkin along with Cinnamon and Mocha all of those colors would look really


good together. good luck
Reply:My favourite colour is also pink. Soft, pastel shades of pink.





Keep in mind that MOST other people (adults) will not also have pink as their favourite colour.





While it is your wedding, you also want your party to feel that they look good. Will the men want to wear pink ties? Didn't think so.





Suggestion. I love, love, love... pink and green together. For my wedding (this past April) I had everyone in sage green, and used that as our main colour for things. Then I was able to have pink as our accent colour. Flowers, balloons, etc.





Hunter green would be a fabulous fall colour too.





Trust me. Green and pink look fabulous together, and it will make you and everyone else happy too.
Reply:Don't worry about fall colors! Do the pink if that's what you really want. This YOUR wedding! I also like the pink with brown idea. You could get really creative with that!
Reply:Well you've given yourself time, which is a VERY smart thing.





There are seamstresses that can make what you want and possibly cheaper, in the color you want. Go to you're nearest Walmart or JoAnn's Fabrics %26amp; look at patterns. Then take the girls. Rather than all the same design, you could have them choose whatever design they want but all in the same color %26amp; fabric. Your idea of black %26amp; pink works well together for the color combo %26amp; the time of year, as well.





They have 'Christmas-in-July', so why not 'Spring-in-November'? Make Spring your theme, and decorate using spring colors. (but then black wouldn't work) You may have problems with flowers if you're using real ones. But you could use a real white carnations or mums and then add the colored flowers in silk.





If you want pink then pink it should be. Use your imagination.
Reply:What I would do is find a salmon pink and pair it with a Burgundy and have the girls wear something that incorporates both colors into the wedding party. Burgundy is a wonderful fall color to couple it with.
Reply:Use that pink with brown in all of the decorations and it will look fine.
Reply:Try a Mauve color instead.
Reply:My Wedding was last year 2006 in November and I put champagne pink in my wedding. My colors were champagne, champagne pink,and Latte'. I know that It may sound different but that the the talk of the rest of the year, wedding everyone said that It was very pretty and different and I went to David's Bridal Also....


That's my suggestion to you
Reply:My sister is getting married in October and she is matching up the David's Bridal light pink with their color called Latte, it's a light brown/tan. The colors look awesome together. Ther other color that might coordinate well is their "chocolate" it looks good on most people and is very elegant looking in the right design. The thought of pink and brown together doesn't sound appealing but when you see it it's very nice. I would reccomend taking your girls over to david's and just have them try on each color, you could even have a few in pink and a few in brown or have the bridesmaids in brown and your flower girl/junior bridesmaids in pink. The possiblities are endless! It leaves you pretty open on picking flowers too!





Congrats and good luck!
