Hi the lighter pair of birds in the photos are meant to be lavender Orpington but seem a little off colour to me.
New to this breed but please comment your thoughts.. thanks

Last photo seems to show dark coloured feathers in the roo and a pale beak
 
Looks like black on the hen also.. could these be splash?

They seem to be splash, as like you said they seem to have darker feathers. They look healthy but if you wanted true lavender and a good quality pair, I wouldn’t get them imo. Their feet have quite a bit of the wrong color and the splash isn’t really splash-y. I don’t know if the lighting is off in the photo or if the birds colors are actually that color so I can’t make a comment on that.
