My wedding dress is white with a long APPLE red sash (not regular red) around the waist with the rest hanging down the back of the dress. The guys will be wearing black tuxes, possibly with apple red vest and tie. Groom in black and all white vest and tie. I was thinking about putting the girls in black dresses with a ribbon tied around the waist or a flower pinned on them but i dont know how good that will look. And from what i hear black is not what they should be wearing anyway. HELP!!!!!

if your wedding is in the evening I think black dresses for the bridesmaids would be very classic!

Here is my honest opinion. I think that you should have your bridesmaids were an apple color dress, like the color of your sash, and then have them just choose different styles of dresses to suit there body types, just in that color. I also think that a white sash, would look good on the apple dress. Kind of doing a reverse type of theme. Your bridesmaids should definitely not wear black at all. I think that an apple color with a bright bold color sash or even a fall colored sash, if your wedding is in the fall would look great. I say bright green, white, baby blue, or even a gold or a burnt orange would look great for a sash or ribbon.

The girls could still wear black. My niece did this and it was very classy plus they had red flowers that really stood out. So black with apple red sash would be good or if you prefer apple red dresses if you can find them. Then they would match the men's vests. It's your wedding so do what pleases you!

they should NOT wear black. since you have all that red i say go with red bridesmaids dresses and then red and white as the colors. reds a very hard color to go with it seems like for a wedding kuz like its very loud if you get what i mean. and the best red flowers ( in my opinion) are roses but red is my favorite color and if done right. it can look really good. just my opinion. congrats. have a good wedding!

Try red dresses with a sash - make sure the dresses also look good without a sash, so they can re-use them.
What color is apple red? There are so many colors of apples!
Cherry red, tomato red, burgundy red, etc...

Don't worry what anyone else thinks or says about how YOUR wedding should look! You can make it any way you want. BTW, I think the black dresses with the apple red ribbon around the waist would look beautiful.
Oh, and congratulations!

Why not put the girls in apple red? They could wear black with an apple red sash.

Gosh no, they are not going to a funeral! Put the girls in a soft pink. That way they will match the red the rest of weddding party is wearing.
Green might be another choice since it is the complimentary color to red, but you don't want to look like Christmas either.
Soft pink would look really nice.

well if you want your bridesmaids to wear black...do it. it's your wedding so as long as you like it and are happy with what everything looks like is all that matters.
however, do you know what time of day the wedding will be? usually, if it's a night wedding people will be more open to seeing black dresses on the bridesmaids...especially if it's more of a formal wedding.
my opinion is if you DO go with black..make the ribbon apple to match your dress. or go with the apple bridesmaids dresses

I been to couple of wedding parties and they usually wear the brides favorite color. They also wear the color of watever the bride is wearing for example in your situation apple red!! In my opinion honestly i dont think black is nice if its your wedding it should be like a happy color like the apple red that you said. Black is too sad, Good luck!!
