Peach Fizz
This is the perfect color for me. My wedding dress is style 1612 and I ordered it in Ivory with Peach Fizz trim. It matches perfectly with my red curly hair! My bridesmaids all love the color too.

Violet
I absolutely love the color Violet. I think a dress accented with this color would really stand out in whatever venue we choose to be married in. It's so bright and vivid and just stunning.

Sunshine
Black and Sunshine represent so much for my fiancee and I. Unlike a majority of couples, we met each ther later in life. My fiancee had an eight year old daughter when we first began to hang out so we decided to take thing super slow. Five years later she asks us when we were going to get married and he proposed! Over the years we nicknamed her "Bee" and even decorated her bedroom as so! To incorperate her into our wedding we chose our theme, "Meant to Bee" with the colors of Black and Yellow! And may I just add, Black bridesmaids dresses with accented with Sunshine looks really sharp next to a white wedding dress!

Black
My colors are Black, Red and Purple. Black represents the hole I was in before I met my finace'. He showed me what true love really means and feels like. I was hurt my whole life and I had so many trust issues and he proved me wrong that you can trust someone and I am worthy of being loved. Red represents the Love that I now have unconditionally for him and the love he has for me. Purple represents our sons birthstone color. I'm taking what I was from the start to what we have become today. Which is a life of love I never thought I would have. I am very thankful.

Blue Jay
I need to have Blue for 4 dresses and a color between Fushia and light Pink dresses. My partner HAS to have the colors of NCU. I want a Pink in with the wedding. I would love to have Blue dresses with a spalsh of Pink for my side and need Black dresses with a spalsh of the NC Blue for their side. Color is our thing, we love color and need to have as much as we can to make our wedding the most amazing and beauitful as possible.

Violet
My favorite color has ALWAYS been Purple, every shade of it, so naturally I would choose to do everything in Purple for my wedding. Well in comes my fiance, who would have thought that he would have an opinion on the color of the wedding? Joe suggested that we bring in the warm Ivory of my gown and Silver to make things sparkle into the wedding colors instead of all Purple. SInce Joe made the suggestion after months of "what ever you want honey" I jumped on the chance to have his 2 cents in the wedding and we are now having all three, but mostly Purple.

Blue Jay
Me and my fiance, have been together for four wonderful yrs. We were very careful of our decision of marriage, my parents were together for 20 yrs, before tying the knot! They had a very traditional wedding with the colors of Black and White, We decided to keep the colors they used for the traditional aspect and add a color of our own. We both love Blue, and Navy has been over-used lately by fellow brides and grooms, so we decided on Blue Jay as our third color. My fiance stated he wanted his tie to match his blue eyes : ). So we now have finalized our 3 wedding colors: Blue Jay, Black, and White.

Pistachio
I am in Love with my Prince! The man God created specifically for me. Everything about him complements me (and vise-versa). He is the missing link in my life's story. We picked the color Pistachio and Hunter Green because of the Movie Princess and The Frog. This is our favorite love movie. It's about two people missing somthing that they need to reach their lives destiny. EACH OTHER. He is my Prince Naveen! Recently we went on a young Adult retreat to New Orleans where he asked me to marry him. It was so perfect because the setting of Princess and the Frog is in New Orleans. We want to carry the essance of that story and the way it has made us feel into our wedding day. Jamaal is my proof that "dreams do come true in NEWWW ORRLEAAANS"

Cobalt
Shades of Cobalt Blue and lighter hues are what are going to compliment my beach wedding on the Jersey Shore.

Pool
My story began with the Teal/ Aqua color when I got divorced 3 years ago. I changed everything in my house but chose the Teal/ Aqua color for my room because it was calming like being on a tropical island it would take me away from all the bad memories. That was my new begining and knew if I ever got married again this would be my color for the bridesmaids and decorations for a new beginning. Never thought I would be getting married again but to my suprise I am going to do it once again for the last time forever do us part. He has never been married and we are both looking forward to a happy ever after together.

Cobalt
Blue has always been my favorite color and just like my relationship with Frank, Blue has many different characteristics that make it unique. It is calming, stable and gives a sense of safety and security. It can be royal and regal and make you feel like a princess...just like Frank has made me feel for the first time in my life. The right hue adds a hint of mystery and excitement...(a little something that keeps the relationship fun!). And in some cultures Blue brings peace and is a sign of confidence. Blue is also the color most associated with boys. (Frank and I each have one son who will be standing with us on our special day!!) Of all the colors in the spectrum, Blue is definitely the perfect color for us!

Cobalt
I had chosen my bridesmaids dresses from another supplier and was told the color was being discontinued! Only Alfred Angelo had the same gorgeous hue of blue! Thank you!!
Megan D.
Violet
I love Violet. The color in the Alfred Angelo ad is really nice and I think that would be the best color for every skin tone. Hope so...I'm having 10 maids!

Violet
When I was a little girl my grandmother bought me this beautiful Purple dress. I wore that dress until I could not wear it anymore. I kept that dress for years neatly hung under plastic in my closet. I was about 13 year old and my aunt had a daughter that was about 7 at the time, She needed a dress to wear for pictures at school. I cried so hard when my grandmother told me to give her my dress cause it has been hanging in the closet for years. It hurt me so bad to give my dress away but brought me so much joy to see that someone else was able to benefit from it. I promised myself that if I ever had a wedding I would have the color Purple somewhere because when I wore that dress even at a young age I felt like royalty.

Purple
I have never been a girly girl but I think my wedding is when I get to feel like the prettest girl. When adding color to the wedding I think it just gives it that extra girly feeling and that's what I want because I was never the grily girl growing up.

Cobalt
My fiance and I met while he was stationed Tampa, FL. We chose the color Cobalt because it is such a rich color that signifies our love for the beach and will stand out magnificently against the ocean (and not to mention we are Florida Gator fans and the blue reminds us of the team)! This color also reminded me of the Air Force blue and his sacrifice for our country each and every day. I made sure that we picked the colors together to make our wedding "about us" and colors that signify something meaningful to both of us. I cannot wait to see it all put together. It will be amazing. :)

Shamrock
My fiance and I met at college where I work. I work at Starbucks, and he was a customer, where he used the excuse of homework to talk to me. Jason is in the military, and did the ROTC program at our school. He has been 8 hours away from me for going on 3 months now, which has been an adjustment. We started talking about our wedding only a few months into the relationship. We decided we want a formal, military wedding, and our color would be a deep Red, since it is both of our favorite. Then he got his branch: Military Police. The MP colors are Green and Gold. It only seemed fitting to use these colors, that will follow him during his career in our wedding. I couldn't be more excited.
