  • First things first: book a reception venue. Your date's not really set until that contract is signed. Don't even worry about bridesmaid dresses or centerpieces until 6-9 months out. The Knot has a pretty good checklist to help you prioritize when various things need to be done. Good luck with planning!

  • I dont think you need to worry about any colors taking over anything else as long as you don't use any hot pinks with "non hot" colors. As far as different length dresses I say go for it. That's what I am doing with my bridesmaids and I have 5 girls standing up in my wedding. I would be careful about putting flowers and candles together. I am not saying don't do it I am just saying be careful. I have heard too many stories about little fires happening because the flame from the candle catches part of the flowers. I do agree with LizM61409 and that you need to book a reception hall before worrying about anything else. Some places are more allowing of things than others. Plus once you find a reception venue, you will have a better idea of what you can and cant do for decorations.
