Get a swatch of material that you are thinking of using for your bridesmaids and take it outside into the natural light to look at it. It can very often look different in natural light. Also if possible take a picture of the material and see what it looks like on film. I was inspired to do this when I saw pictures of a friends wedding, in which the bridesmaids dresses seemed to be a very different colour on film than I recalled them being on the day. I am sure that photographers can get the colours true, but lots of friends and family take pictures too.  |

| thats a fabulous idea, materials do change in different light and I suppose that daylight colour is most imortant because of the photos. I will remember this. Thank you |

| I think the colour stays true if the material is matt, if its a bit shiney it can look a bit different on film |

Yes the material I was going for was quite shiney and so shimmered slightly different colours in the light.
Of course the bonus of that is that the shoes don't have to match exactly either  |
