| I can't make any decisions on colour.We are having the reception in a marquee.SO now they are asking what colours I want for tablecloths and chair covers and the table runners and chair sashs.I think I will wear a Sophia Tolli dress in spun gold, so basically a really light gold. I saw one dress that was black, and breathtakingly amazing but its about 6 grand and a bit outside the budget. I am also afraid It would just look way too gothic and outrageous. SO How Can I get my black fix seeing as the marquee has a WHITE silk roof and walls, and I hate the idea of a just black and white wedding?I want the colours to really just look amazing with loads of flowers to coordinate.Can someone give me a link for examples of table set ups incorporating black? No I'm 24 Emo didn't exist when I was a teenager = ) Cheeky.I Just think black can look gorgeous and oh-so different from the usual blah white table cloth white chair cover..The table decor doesn't need to include gold, I'm trying to find a colour scheme that won't clash with my beautiful light spun gold dress!And then bridesmaid dress colours that won't clash with the table decor, but will accent the pale gold dress! |

| Black, red and gold? what about silver instead of gold. Also black and white would be nice, you can add color with your flowers, use red and pink flowers |

| My sister was married at Christmas time and all the bridesmaids wore black dresses and carried red roses with gold ribbon. I don't have a pic for you, but it was beautiful! I picture for your wedding. white table clothes, white chair covers with a gold bow holding them on, black cloth napkins, and beautiful red roses centerpieces. I think it would be beautiful. |

| You could do white table cloths with black and gold accent pieces (napkins, napkin holders, vases for flowers). It would put just a touch of gold in the color scheme to break it up. If you want to incorporate red, I would suggest putting punches of red in the flower arrangements. Subtle, not stark black and white, but also not goth looking either. |

| Yes, I would say it's borderline tacky.... not because it's ugly but it always has a "cheap" look to it. Could you go Fushia instead of red? Or emerald? |

| I'm having black, white & cranberry-red as my wedding colors. So including black is right up my alley. I'm using it in smalls ways, though - - ribbons on the bouquets and that sort of accent-type thing.While I'm not a huge fan of gold as a color, I think light gold and a deep red (cranberry or burgundy or brick - some bridal lines call it claret or merlot also) would look absolutely amazing and a hint of black will make the other two colors pop!!! |
