Answer: Tomorrow @MarieOsmond we will determine how to choose your bridesmaid colors. I will show you how to honor the bride AND make the bridesmaids look great!

Q3: How do you find the right dress that will look good on all of your bridesmaids?

Answer: Tricky to use the same dress on all! I suggest using one color & different silhouettes.

Q4: How can a couple choose a True Color to represent their wedding?

Answer: I suggest using True Colors (those that look best on you) in your wedding. Why not look your most radiant on your special day? Using your blush tone or lightest color in your eye is a great wedding color! Use your True Colors in bridesmaid dresses, flowers, linens, etc…
