Having trouble with colors, Vintage New Orleans Spring Wedding

 I was wondering if anyone could give me any advice on my upcoming wedding in April 2012 in New Orleans. I want to keep with an "Old World New Orleans" feel and add a vintage inspiration to it. I am having trouble picking colors however because I ever much of a gem tone kind of girl. I do NOT want to go with Mardi Gras colors as that as been done too many times. I have my gown which is in oyster and look amazing on me, if I can say so myself. http://www.marysbridal.com/bridal/5201.htm 
I am looking at colors to compliment me, the season, and new orleans.  I have looked at the Pantone colors and found some I like such as Camo, Quartz, Honey Dew, Seaside, and other in shades of blue and purple but they just seem to give me more of a sensory overload. Any suggestions? My first thought was to go with a peacock theme but that has been SO many time and I would go with classic black and neatreuls but I am trying to keep it classy and fresh for spring. Any suggestions you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
