Girls how crazy am I that I want to change my color theme?

Ok so most of u know that for the past 5 months I've been raving about my pastel blue/white theme. it's been a few weeks now where i'm starting to second guess my choice and the more pics i see of girls in champagne colored dresses the more i want to change everything. I'm getting married in the Tivoli room at Russo's and the colors in that room are very neutral so in my mind the pastel blue would clash but champagne with pink and ivory centerpieces would make the room look so warm. so here's my problem - do i change everything and switch my theme and dump 5 months of research only to start from scratch? i went to my florist already and booked blue everything so this means i would have to go back and get something totally different my save the dates are alredy printed in blue and i can't return them, as well as my bridesmaid cards.

I'm just afraid that if i don't switch to the color i want that i'll regret it on my wedding day. do u girls think it's too late to change?

Re: Girls how crazy am I that I want to change my color theme?

Santina.....Welcome to my world!!!!
I change my mind all the time!!

My whole theme has been mocha and champagne!!! And recently I've been opposite of you...wanting color in my wedding.....your color even..I've been liking the tiffany blue!!

Santina ...keep the blue...I love it and its gorgeous!!

Champagne is beautiful too.....but its pretty plain(which I guess is more me)

But I think what will happen Santina....when you actually go to look at these dresses in person....you'll find that perfect dress style..and see that color that you must have...champagne or turqoise...so dont' stress!!

You are a blue kind of gal bella!!!

Just be true to yourself.....

I mean..heck...when I went to the salon the other day..I saw green dresses I loved

Re: Girls how crazy am I that I want to change my color theme?

Here is my honest opinion Santina, being on the boards for the next couple of months will drive you insane and make you want to change your mind a hundred times. If I were u I would continue with my color since you have things invested.

But you must do what makes u happy.

OH ...and Santina...stop looking at Verdi's website!!! Ha!! I notice anytime someone does this or comes up with new pics...you always second guess yourself. Remember when Bella11 said she loved Regina Pacis...and you second guessed your church?!?!? Ha..you crack me up because we are soo alike...just stop second guessing yourself!!!

Re: Girls how crazy am I that I want to change my color theme?

Sweetie.. You are going to change your mind a MILLION times before the wedding.. it's natural.. My BM had a Tiffany's themed wedding in a neutral colored room at Leonards and 1. it did NOT clash and 2. it looked GORGEOUS!!

Your gut told you to pick those colors for a reason.. But it is your decision.. But I personally love the blue!!!! xoxo

Re: Girls how crazy am I that I want to change my color theme?

I'm such a big fan of blue so I'm kind of partial to it. Really though, if you love a different color scheme then go for it. You have so much time left that there's really no reason not to.

Re: Girls how crazy am I that I want to change my color theme?

Oh Santina no!!! You're baby blue Tiffany theme is my FAVORITE!! I was considering changing mine to a tiffany theme and ironically enough I'm having a champagne themed weddings. My colors are champagne ivory and gold with bits of bright yellow and sage green,

I have been in the Tivoli room a few times and you're right, it has nuetral tones. Being nuetral it allows you to add anything you want. I think the champage with just blend into the room not causing any type of contrast. The punchy blue and white colors will totally make the room POP!

You have to do what works best for you hun. You have fabulous taste and whatever you choose will be fabulous!!

Re: Girls how crazy am I that I want to change my color theme?

I just changed my mind too....I think it happens all the time. I like the suggestion above, wait and see what you like the dresses in, or the flowers...there will be something that makes up your mind for you, just go with the flow until then. No one will notice your Save the Dates were blue and you go with champagne and pink if that's what you decide to do...besides, who said they had to coordinate anyway!

Re: Girls how crazy am I that I want to change my color theme?

I changed mine too! I was doing Brown/Pink theme and just changed it to aqua/turquoise.

I think do what you really want to do......you do have plenty of time to test your options and as far as the florist goes..they have brides that change there mind 2 weeks before a wedding, so don't worry about that!!!

Re: Girls how crazy am I that I want to change my color theme?

Like everyone said, you will change your mind a million times!!!

I changed my color scheme about 4 times up until about a month before the wedding!!! And looking at the pictures now I would not have changed a thing!!!

The beauty of it is, you still have plenty of time if you decide to change your colors. I had to stick to at least bordeaux no matter what because by the time I changed my mind, the dresses were ordered!!

Do what feels right for you. Do a lot of research, and your scheme will come to you. Your searching will not be in vain, trust me!!!
