Hi everyone! Im having a little bit of a color coordination problem. My colors are pink and gray. Im having the entire bridal party wear gray, the girls will be wearing a light gray with pink shoes and the guys will wear a sort of lighter charcoal gray (its not really dark)  with pink ties. But im stuck on what to do for linens...Im not really crazy about doing fuschia linens. The centerpieces will have different shades of pink with hints of green. I'll also be having uplighting. What color should I do my table linens? TIA!

    I would do plain white tablecloths with napkins in either gray or pink.

    Courtski's had fuschia napkins at her wedding and I LOVED the accents and pops of pink.

    I believe she is selling them too if you were interested.

    Dark Grey will contrast nicely with the lighter grey... maybe something with a texture. My cousin had a really pretty one at her wedding. Her colors were red and grey.

    I'm seeing white with a grey or silver overlay or runner then with your fuscia centerpieces--I think that would be really pretty.

    We did pewter pintuck linens with pink napkins... but I think it was the white chairs and centerpieces that made it all look right.

    msLaura31 thats what I had in mind! The chairs are a light wooden chivari. I was also thinking of doing a dark charcoal gray, I just dont know what that would look like  Im afraid that might still be too much gray. I hadn't even thought of just leaving the white table linens!..lol thanks for those suggestions. I will definitely look into those napkins. Thanks ladies

    Awww thanks ladies! The linens were definitely a splurge, but since the guests were seated at their tables for the ceremony also, I thought it was worth it.

    I did Ivory Table Cloths/Napkins, Charcoal Chargers, and went to a popcorn specialty shop and had purple popcorn made.  It looked so awesome!!!  You can go get light pink popcorn made with a flavor of your choice (I did vanilla) and use it as a favor at the tables to add a little color to the tables.

    All of the guests LOVED it!!
