Colors dilemma

Hi, I am getting married in November and I am having the hardest time deciding on colors for my linens and chairs... Ok my dress is a very pale blush, brides aides are wearing a dark silver and the accent color is a robins egg blue. The centerpieces are 3 round silver vases at different heights with cream colored flowers with a touch of blush and about 5 candles around the center piece. Additionally there will be a robins egg blue ribbon around the middle of each vase with a vintage brooch facing out. I am going for a vintage feel since we are getting married in a hotel built in the 20s.

Anyway, I am trying to decide what color table linens we should get. I like this ivory one but I am afraid it is to gold and with the silver vases it might look weird. Plus then with gold chivari chairs and ivory linens will that look weird with the other colors????

Advice? Suggestions? There are also silver and dark wood colored chivari chairs and all different color table linens.

Please help!

    Honestly?  Because you have so much going on with your centerpieces and other decorative elements, I recommend white tablecloths.  Less is more.  Enjoy!
  • We have silver candelabras and ivory table cloths and it looks great. I think ivory would be best, especially with the cream and blush flowers. Stark white might be too "bright", and less vintage.
  • Your colors sound like mine.  We're doing dark gray/silver, dusty rose, and ivory.  I agree with the PPs that you should go with the ivory linens, but I'm not sure I see the gold chairs with your silver accents.  I'd go with the silver or dark wood chairs.
