I find dark dresses to be nicer and any ideas/pictures of "goth" themed wedding receptions?
Answer
How about instead of goth bridesmaid dresses, you have the girls wear corsets and skirts in a color you like? It would be easier to find the corset and skirt as separates. Will there be a Renaissance faire in your area before your wedding? That would be a great place to get high-quality corsets.
As far as a goth wedding reception, I have a feeling that most "goth" themed decor would be tacky. Rather, pick table decorations and etc that look very, very antique. Like for your centerpeices, find Victorian and pewter candle holders and go NUTS with the candles. Every surface should have candles. Keep the lights low, so you're lit mostly by candlelight. Use lots of mirrors to amplify the light. Choose dark, rich colors for your linens. If you don't want flowers, feathers are a neat and modern substitute (just be careful around the candles)!
I wouldn't really do skulls or tombstones or silly stuff like that. It's a wedding, not Halloween (not that Halloween weddings aren't awesome). Draw inspiration from gothic styles in the true sense... elegant, architectural, dramatic.
Happy wedding!

yeah i agree about the lavender, i have a swatch of the lavender because that was my original choice
Answer
First great dress very beautiful!! i personally do not like the victorian lilac but do like the purple and the lavender. If you are trying to make a contrast i would go with the purple because i would make you stand out from the girls. It will be awesome no matter what!! Congrats
