I've put up a few of my choices for their dresses, in one of my earlier posts this month. Like I said, our colors our navy/kelly green with a few splashes of pink here and there. The groomsmen are wearing navy blazers, khakis and a navy/green striped J.Crew tie. Our actual ceremony will take place in a church, with a full mass. Our reception is taking place at a house, a block away from the beach. And we are going with a real lowcountry/beachy theme - serving bbq, bluegrass band, etc. So, as my friends and I were checking out the dresses in the J.Crew store, they agreed that this dress might work(Strapless embossed beach dress):
With a pink sash, a green hydrangea bouquet, pearls and probably a neutral strappy heel, I think they would work! A great steal and I KNOW that my girls would be able to wear these again - So, what do you think, is it too casual?? Let me know your fashionista opinions please!

It sounds great to me - I think the sash, pearls, and heels would really dress it up! And I love the navy and pink with green flowers - gorgeous!
Love embossed beach dresses! I have them in hot pink, white, and green! =)
such a lovely dress. One that your bridesmaids would be able to wear again.
Ok, I LOVE this! So classic. Our wedding tastes seem to be very similar- we are doing green and brown but almost went with green and navy. So "classic prep." You might also check out ariadress.com. That's where I'm getting my BM dresses and they have tons of great styles for pretty reasonable prices.
The color combo is fantastic! I do think that you would be happier with going with something cleaner. I love the J.Crew dress, but since it is a seersucker fabric it might not look as polished next to your wedding dress. Aria is amazing, I have only heard great things about them. An idea would be to get dress style 160 and then order pink grosgrain ribbon to use as the sash instead. That way it will not look as formal and would already have the loops on the dress to hold the ribbon! Style 130 is really cute too.
I do think you need to get the J.Crew dress for yourself for you honeymoon!
I am feeling very unoriginal! I am planning a wedding, and thinking of using this dress with blue and green hydrangeas. My bridesmaids are excited about the dress that you actually can wear again. I think you have excellent taste!
