I am thinking about having the colors turquoise, fuschia, lime green and yellow as the theme colors. I dont know if they are bad together or not. I am also having four bridemaids, the maximum. I have no idea how to coordinate their dresses including all these colors. what should i do?

U will have a fire idea.
My wedding colors will be lavender, mint green, and pale pink. I will have six bridesmaids 2 in lavender, 2 in mint green and 2 in pale pink and the maid of honor will be in a flow of the three. U can of course make it work. put the four girls in each of the colors. The way i'm picturing it is really nice but u want there dresses to be really simple. Try to have their bouquet match their dress (or a mixture of the four colors) and maybe a matching flower in there hair. Ur younger boys can have on a tie with a flow of the colors and ur groomsmens and can have on a shirt to match the bridesmaid whom the walk with. Maybe u can have 4 flower girls in each other of the color throwing that flower down.
Sorry i wrote so much and i hope it's helpful. I've been dreaming of this wedding for years and i'm planning it for 2009. I probably just gave u all of my ideas. Lol. Congrats and Good Luck!!

What I would do if I were you is pick one main color. That would be for the b'maid dresses. Turquoise is great, b/c everyone looks good in it! Then do the flowers in shades of yellow, fuschia, & lime green.
You could do the centerpieces the same way with turquoise linens or white linens with turquoise runners. Or you could do your tables with some of each color linen and then just that color for the centerpieces. For example, if you have 12 tables, then do 3 of each color linen. On the turquoise tables, have the centerpieces made of blue hydrangeas, on the fuschia tables, have fuschia roses, etc.
This is a great look & very modern! It will also be something the guests have not seen a lot of times before!

Oridinarily this would sound like too many colours, but what you really have going on is a bright wedding, more than 4 theme colours. It's almost a neon theme.
Have each bridesmaid in a dress of one of the colours.
You could have decorations in groupings of two of the four colours. For example, if you have balloons, you could have groupings of turquoise and green, turquoise and yellow, turquoise and fuschia, and so on.
Or you could have napkins in one colour, table-cloths in another, flowers in a third and candles in the fourth.
You've got a zillion choices of what to do with that mixture.
While it won't be to everyone's taste, it will be fun and lively.

I think you could probably do it, but you will need to keep things consistent. Lime Green and Turquoise could be your primary colors. For example: your bridesmaids are all in turqouise with a lime green sash, and lime green jewelry, your table linens could be a lighter shade of whatever lime green you want (I'd keep the linens light, not bright) and then mix the fuschia and yellow in through your favors and cocktail napkins & flowers (but make sure they also have your greens and blues).

i think maybe just drop the turquoise and you would be OK - i personally think it's a little much the way you have it, but by getting rid of the turquoise i think it will be really nice and have a very "citrus" feel. You could consider a brighter pink instead of fuchsia, but it's up to you. I would probably pick on color of dress and then have very bright flowers, perhaps Gerber Daisy's. or, if you would prefer to have different color dresses, that is a nice new trend, just stick to the same dress and material. - they should also either all have the same shoes or have shoes that match their given dress color.
good luck and congrats

Not as long as you are careful. We did, for a July wedding. Our colours were pink, lilac, yellow, and light teal.
I love the ideas of your colours! There are several ways to deal with the dresses. One is having each one wear one colour, obviously, and that would look great. You would tie the colours all together with their bouquets, for example.
Here's what happened with us. I hadn't yet picked colours before we went dress shopping. The girls, and me, totally fell in love with a dress with a print - very tasteful, small pretty flowers (looked like they were watercolour painted) sprinkled over a white dress. The dress itself had a sweetheart neckline, short puff sleeves, three straps criss-crossing at the back, basque waistline, tealength. They were SO gorgeous! So we took the colours from the dress - and I had four attendants.
For coordinating, each bridesmaid was matched with a colour. For example, the "pink" bridesmaid had a wreath of pink flowers in her hair, and pink ribbons trailing from her bouquet. Her groomsman wore a pink bowtie and cummerbund. The guys wore light grey suits. My bouquet had a variety of flowers in all these colours, with ribbons trailing from the bouquet in all four colours.
It was absolutely beautiful to have all this colour and really wasn't hard to coordinate. Decorating was fun, too, with all the different colours.
I wish you luck, and have fun.

i think of the assumption is exciting, besides the shown fact that it may be slightly "too a lot" it somewhat is excellent to think of outdoors the container, yet i'm having a problematic time imagining all of those colorations working at the same time. i think of if it develop into toned down slightly: purple & black Black & pink Black and yellow purple and yellow might look like ketchup and mustard, pink and yellow could be too new child finding... in line with danger.... fairly of being innovative withbridesmaid colorations, she could be innovative in different techniques: somewhat "accessible" reception innovations, including in a random place amazing father/daughter dance, or newlywed dance with husband (choreographed) gown occasion wedding ceremony or reception. in line with danger a topic? Write their very own vows basically some innovations to throw accessible, the a number of coloration thought is a great initiate, yet in line with danger slightly too distracting from the bride. surely dont opt to upstage her on her special occasion : )

I have seen a "rainbow" wedding where each girl wears the same style dress in a different color. Your colors sound perfect for a rainbow wedding! If you like those colors and bright multi colors fit your personality and style then go for it!

Like Stacie says, flowers with all those colors will bring everything together. Sounds bright and nice to me.
