Default colors- aqua? coral?

Has anyone used a light aqua as their main color (ie bridesmaid dress). What accent color did you use? Do you have a pic?

Likewise - has anyone used a coral as their main color. What accent color did you use? Would love to see pics! I keep looking at colors and falling in love with all of them and cant decide without envisioning it in a wedding beach setting!! THANK YOU.

Hmmm, a few girls on here used red and blue together - Lala (Kate) and anagarcia (Anny). I think Anny used a lighter color blue and they both looked awesome!

I immediately thought of Angela's (cheese_diva) --- she had a BEAUTIFUL wedding!

I'm not sure if you were thinking of using both, but I love the combination of aqua and coral ... I think it is super-beachy and would be beautiful! To me, the aqua with coral accents would be a bit softer and reminiscent of the ocean while coral with aqua accents would seem a more summer-time / festive ... either way --- I think it would be really pretty!

I think that the aqua and coral would look great TOGETHER! It would be a pretty combination for a DW!

Mine colors are Blue and Pink :) Like my siggy.

However, I don't have bridesmaids... so I don't have pictures of dresses to show you.
