Coordinating colors? HELP!

Ok girls work your magic!!!!!

My dress is white with red on the top and around the bottom of the train. My girls dresses are red. I am having a hard time deciding what color to do the table linens and stuff. I dont want too much red. My FH LOVE LOVE LOVES dark blue and I was wondering if I could do the linens and stuff blue. Posting pics of my dress. Lemme know what you guys think about colors.

Re: Coordinating colors? HELP!

navy blue would look really cute - are you planning on adding a little blue to the flowers or anything else? Maybe the ribbon for your bo-k (whatever is used to tie the bo-k) could be navy blue- i dont know but add another touch to it that way its not just the linens that are blue you know what i mean? I dont know thats just my opinion!

Re: Coordinating colors? HELP!

I don't know if you should do blue, might look a little 4th of July if you know what I mean. Just my opinion, but that is what I am picturing in my head.

Since you are getting married in the summer, what about cream for the linens and use some different colors for the flowers Red, oranges, yellow?

In my opinion, I don't think I would do blue. I would feel like its too much of the 'red white & blue' american flag, I mean it matches and it could look nice but its not my taste. (Only my opinion).

Re: Coordinating colors? HELP!

i wouldnt do the blue with the red. I LOVE blue - its my fav color, but i wouldnt like the way it would look with the red. I would do the linens white or beige ... and keep the theme white and red. JMO

I agree...it may kinda look like fourth of July...you could do linens in ivory or white, and just have your favors and flowers in colors- i love the roses-I think they're called Leonias (sp?) they are yellow w/ red tips.

Re: Coordinating colors? HELP!

I would't do blue either. My opinion would be stick with the red and white and maybe add some yellow with flowers or something.
