Colors for Parents as the wedding party?



I am having a small wedding in August 2007. We have only incorporated our children (age 9 & 2) within our wedding but we are also having our parents at the head table with us. We plan to take the 'wedding party' pictures with our parents and siblings. We are thinking of bright reds, yellows, and oranges for flower colors. My dress in Dimond White with an Oyster sash. Our daughter is wearing burgandy. All the men are wearing Tuxes (burgandy tie, etc. for groom & Mercury for the others) but I am stuck on the MOB & MOG. If they wear burgandy as well, our daughter won't stand out as much but under the circumstances, is that okay? Should both mothers dress colors be the same? And in what color?
Our photographer suggusted we treat them all as our wedding party. So if they don't wear a co-odinating color, the mothers will look left out (since the men will all blend well) What can you suggest?? PLEASE HELP!!!

Who cares. You sound positively anal anyway.
I never knew they had to match, but why not the yellow or the orange?
Your daughter wont stand out? I dont think anyone will confuse your daughter with an adult! Being short, shes going to be in the front anyway. Usually, the mothers do not wear the same color, but since they are your "wedding party", it would work well. They can wear burgundy, too. The photos would look beautiful. Or any other that you do the flowers in. Then you would have a spray of color, instead of one uniform color. It just depends on what you are looking for.
I agree with your photographer on this one, but I wouldn't have both mothers in the same gown, but both wearing the same color of burgandy. Don't worry, that cute little daughter of yours will stick out.
Don't make the Mothers wear the same dress unless you are planning to use them as actual bridesmaids. In fact I wouldn't even ask them to wear the same colors. What I think I would suggest is having them shop for dresses together and coordinate their looks. If they have the coloring for it, one could get a soft gold dress and the other a copper or bronze shade. Or one in a shade of orange-red and the other in a orange-ish color (dark peach, apricot, tangerine, coral). Do you see what I mean? Shades that go together but will still allow each woman to get a color that suits them while keeping within your color scheme.Your daughter will still stand out as a person of importance (I think that's what you are aiming for), the Mothers will coordinate but not match and your flowers will compliment the whole picture.

nice choice of colours...my cousin had them at her wedding and they looked lovely!!

i think the mothers should wear different colours otherwise they might feel a bit like a bridesmaid.....or how about they both wear a light colour suit and accessorize with the colours that you want?

orange is the best colour
I think the mothers should not wear the same color. Maybe you can put them in the same dress, but in a softer burgandy (like old rose color). It's your wedding do what you would like..Good luck
