relating to favors and wedding colors... opinions?

Ok, Ladies. I would appreciate your viewpoints on this.

Our wedding reception is in my parents backyard. Our colors are going to be Lemon Yellow and Pure White. (And whatever greenery occurs naturally in the yard). We love this because we love the POP of yellow against the bright white. Our invitations and programs will follow this color scheme. 

Our first date was at a medival ren faire. While there, we fell in love with the sasparilla and birch beer a vendor has there. I contacted him, and he can provide bottles of whatever flavors we like. We want to provide a bottle for each guest as a favor.

Here is the issue:
The beverages only come in bright cobalt blue bottles. (Just so you know, they are absolutely beautiful.)

So do I
A: Place the blue bottles on the eating tables, letting them pop with their blue color, but not adding any other blue in the wedding.
B: Place them on the eating tables, and making cobalt blue a main color in the scheme (either with yellow and white, or a whole new scheme) . This would lose the POP we love of yellow and white.
C: Place the bottles on thier own table, like many favors are given. Would the color just make no sense floating out on a table on its own?
D: Something I havent thought of?

What do you ladies think? Can we have a random moment of beautful cobalt blue, or does it just make no sense in our color story?

    I wouldnt redo your whole color scheme if this is the only reason. I think they would look fine at their own "favor" table. :)

    I would either put them on the tables or make a table especially for them. Don't feel that you have to change your entire vision because of the color of a bottle. Nobody will even notice the color thing other than how it looks on their table. They will see it and forget about the color thing in about 10 seconds. If you want all yellow and white, don't sweat it.

    I picked on the dinner tables because I'm thinking that if you put them on a seperate table on their own people will/may get greedy and take more than their suppose to.

    Thank you, Ladies! I'm glad no one seems to to think I need to change the color scheme for the bottles. That was what I was most concerned about. I think we are going to go for putting them on thier own favor table. It would also be very easy, last minute, to change my mind and put them on the dinner tables, no problem.

    Thanks for your opinions. :)

    I had mini bottles of wine as part of our favors and since the colors didnt match my wedding colors i used gift bags in one of my colors and tissue paper in the other color for the top.

    i think all of the above ideas are fine- the colors match and add a pop with the blue, or a separate table is fine, or u can do the organza bags to make them match perfectly. (but sense it is a beer that u love, but isnt available every where- i would include a tag about where to get it if they love it too. if u put it on its own table you can make a little sign explaining why u chose that gift- its a sweet story. :@)
