     What color for the MOB goes with claret?  

My daughter is getting married in July (5:00pm) and has chosen the color claret for her bridesmaids dresses. She expects to have 250-300 guests. Her dress is white with a cathedral train. Their ceremony and reception will be indoors. I appreciate your feedback in helping me to determine an appropriate color scheme for my dress. Can it be a print, or should it be solid? I am hoping to get ideas on what color will best compliment the chosen color. HELP!!

Dear Debbie,

Claret is nearly purple. So the complimentary color would be yellow. You could choose anything within the color range as well. Black is also a good choice.

As I have mentioned too many times to count, a color wheel helps so much with these choices. Just choose a color that is not too bright, especially red.

A print is fine.

Best wishes,
