Ok. i will be having my wedding in about 7 months. We are having it on this HUGE sandbar by a beautiful spot on the river...yes my fiancee is a little bit of a country bumpkin....i want to have it around sunset so that i can have candles line the walkway where we will come down...There is a camo wedding dress that is very cute and my fiancee loves it....would that be appropriate...i think that it would fit really well,....except how would i match bridesmaid dresses so that it looks outdoorsy...yet "cutesy" at the same time?

I would definitely have the bridesmaids wear a color that is in your gown. Possibly a light moss green maybe. Or a beige.
Just pull colors in from nature. Look around the area where you are being wed. Just be careful you don't blend in too much, you don't want your wedding party looking blah. Maybe add in colors with your flowers.
Congratulations!

First, I wanted to say to be very careful with the candles so that (if you have a train) it doesnt catch on fire but the candles sound nice. The camo sounds interesting and it's your wedding so do what you want. You might consider choosing one of the colors of the camo dress to have in bridemaids dresses, or maybe if you think the camo wedding dress is not traditional enough, have camo bridesmaids dresses and choose one of the colors for yourself, or to adorn a more traditional dress. I'm only mentioning something more traditional because you still sound a bit unsure- not because I think you cant do it. I'd love to see a picture of the dress if you can post it.

Are you really sure that you want a camo wedding dress. Remember that you are going to have photographs of this day for a very long time. Your great-great-great grandchildren will one day be looking at these photos! I think you could fit camo into the decor instead of the dress, or make the bridesmaids wear it! That would be a hoot!

Camo wedding dress? Maybe if you can put a link so that we can see the dress we could give you a better opinion of what would look appropriate. I just got married, but I can't even begin to imagine what a Camo wedding dress looks like. Good Luck

I'm unsure - do you mean a camoflauge wedding dress, like the army fatigues? Oh, boy.... I think bridesmaid dresses would be out in this case, how about something like flak jackets and army boots - honestly I don't know where you are going with this. When you mentioned that you think your fiance is a country bumpkin, I thought you were thinking in the way of denim overalls, plaid shirts and bandanas..... well, I learned something else new today!
Maybe you just have to visualize looking at your wedding photos with your grandchildren, and what you would like them to see, and how you want to remember your special wedding day. Then, do as you please.

A camo wedding dress? That is kind of hard to match to... I would try to stick to a color that is in your dress like a green or a brown and keep in outdoorsy in that way.
Good luck to you!

I have seen quite a bit of burnt orange and browns, which might go with the theme (my initial thought was hunter's jacket orange!).
However, seven months from now, it will be spring, so, with that in mind, I might have to agree with everyone else that a pale green would work pretty well. Alternately, a buttercup yellow, or a sky blue, could work, too, I think. I'd avoid pink, for sure, just because it's so "clashy" with the greens in the camouflage.

Well, that depends. If ur camo dress is like green, then ur bridsemaids should have like pale green dresses, or dark green dresses. Just make sure ur the most beautiful thing in the wedding. lol.
or, if ur camo is like with pink, or somedin, then ur bridesmaids, should be either light, or dark pink.
Just have fun choosing. Congratulations btw!!!!

I would put the bridesmaids in solid colors, since you will be in a pattern...having them wear a pattern too would clash, and you want to be the focus. A shorter flowing black dress would be cute...then use lighter colors for the flowers, like shades of cream and green so they would match your pattern without wearing the entire pattern. It sounds like fun!!! Good luck!!

OK ummm i think it would be appropriate because 1 you picked it out and 2 its white. and i think you should make the brides made dresses like light green if you would like that color because green is outdoor color and it matches the grass.or you can make it light blue for the sky but its your wedding and if you like any of these colors then that's good. sooo good luck in your wedding and good luck dress picking.
