My combo are purple & yellow. Can i wear a purple heel with my bridal gown? If yes, then What color of flower bouquet should i use? Thank you.

Of course you can wear a purple heel and your bouquet could be purple and yellow. I think more of yellow than purple would be great for the bouquet. I hope this is helpful.

Yes you can wear purple heels. It's a relatively new trend to wear d colour
If wearing purple heels, ensure ur bouquet has more of purple than yellow( yellow highlights)
It may not show, but it will during photo shoot smiley

Am can also decide to do yellow shoe and have more of yellow in d bouquet

Ok hope that helps.

Yes it does. Just that my BM's will be wearing yellow shoes, yellow hair fascinator & purple gown.

Yes you can. 2 months isn't too far away to be honest. I believe it's even better so that it reduces stress on you or whoever is in charge. Also, when out shopping, u r not forced to pick anyone because of time, but u will take ur time to pick the one you really want.
and also even ur guest, they have it on time to sew it and depending on price can budget well
Or what do other nairalanders think?

Sorry i mean purple dress for the BMs. I have just 2 friends. 1 wld be the Maid of honour while the other wld be a maid. Both will be wearing purple dress but different styles. Hope it wld be a good idea dressing them in purple but different styles.

Also how can i dress my Groom & his GM? My fiance hates yellow but loves purple. What color of suit should he wear & also his groomsmen? What color of tie & shirt also?
Re: Your Questions On Wedding Planning Answered! by rushino: 11:25am On Feb 04, 2015
Colour combo
Pls u should have an idea at least, then we can help with combining. So pick at least 1 colour u r thinking of to guide, because there r so many colours out thereyou . Even if it's one colour, then we can tell u what to combine with u get or tell u if a combo is ok
Guides to help u:
Couples favourite colours or colour u like for wedding
Colours in vogue( I don't recommend this though)- atm I think these are yellow,aqua,mint green,teal,orange marsala,grey,light pink,blue,torquoise

So give it a thought first,am sure something will come to you. Colour is very important

Ok to answer ur question finally,if u just want a colour, I can say marsala and that's only because it's the colour of the yr.

Here is a list of possible marsala colour combo
1. Pink
2.grey
3.blue
4. White
5. Green
6. Gold

If u have a bbm channel, join C0039C1d9
It's called bride et al n will get tips on planning wedding like colour combo

Re: Your Questions On Wedding Planning Answered! by rushino: 12:01pm On Feb 04, 2015
Lol np
Yes they can both wear purple with different styles. But the more elegant dress should be for the MOH like the one that flows more e.g. long dress for MOH and short for bridesmaid..just an example
They can both use yellow shoe, flowers and fascinator

Men can all wear black or grey suit( I prefer black) with purple. Then accessories like tie they can wear purple
Only difference is groom and best man can wear bow tie, then the remaining grooms man can use a long normal purple tie ( or if u can get apurple/yellow stripe tie- so two colour). But groom n best man, plain bow tie

There are various ways to Combine, but one can't think of a combo in isolation. U have to consider how it will all flow, e.g. how the bm will look next to the grooms men n d couple etc and even decoration. So hence why I suggested d above based on all what u said

HOG18 has written well. a purple shoe for u & a yellow bouquet wt purple touch. for ur groom n his men, rushino wrote well. I prefer dark grey suit tho.. ur groom can use purple vest n bowtie/cummerbund since he doesnt like yellow while his men use regular ties wt som wearin yellow n others purple or if u can get a purple tie wt touch of yellow for d groomsmen, perfect.

Well said. I agree with the grey suit too, to me, its finer than a black suit.

Hello people, I really really really need help. My wedding was shifted from August back to May and I feel like I won't be able to make it. I have just 2months + to plan. Can I make it? The only thing I've picked is wedding color (fuschia pink, radiant orchid and gold) and bridal train. I'm so confused. Feels like my head's about to explode

the first thing iwill suggest is for you to calm down and don't over think about it. Secondly, write down all the things you think you will need in place for it to be a memorable day, this might take a few days to have a comprehensive list but it will help you at the long run.

from the list you can start Making contacts and decisions. I have 3 months to plan my wedding and now I have a month till the d-day but I can say I am ready.

Happy planning

I agree with Rhukie on this, you have to draft a checklist. To make it easier for you, I could send you a wedding checklist so all you will do is tick as you go along.

let me give a rough sketch of the things I can remember till I get home.

Couple's outfits- decide on what kind of outfit and how many you will both wear.

accessories for both of you
shoes and purses, jewelry for both
underwears for both
invitation cards
venue- hall or open space
drinks- soft drinks, juice, malt, table water, wine and cocktail drinks.
Food - what variety are you looking at, small chops
makeup
wedding band
decoration
Aso-ebi and list of those to buy
MC
DJ or band
Ushers
servers
photography and videography
Pre wedding shoots
honeymoon package.

this is all I can remember for now, I will add more when I remember.

hello,
first of all, calm down, just as Rhukie said

My suggestions
is to get an exercise book and write down all you need to do
and priortise them so write them in order of how soon u need to sort it out!
e.g. week beginning the 15th, this is what I need to do etc. Take one step at a time..but quickly due to time limitation

1.for now, you need to
contact wedding officials: registry, church or mosque of wedding date and ensure its been accepted and book a hall asap. also ur wedding dress; visit for some lovely dresses www.blandyplandy.com/bridals . these 3 asap!

2. then follow ur list and tick as u go along
in addition to what rhukie said: hair, drinks, cake, decoration, bridal train outfit n d couple's,souvenir (?), programme, manicure and pedicure

3. start meeting with vendors and comparing now!. do you want suggestions of vendors to contact? by a moth b4 the wedding, latest u shuld know all d vendors u will use and should have booked them down

4. because its so near, I suggest u get someone to join u in planning, sister, bestfriend etc. or get a planner. if getting others to help, you can do division of labour, e.g let someone else handle the asoebi n co.. to relieve you of stress
