Color Dilemma

in Minnesota-Minneapolis and St. Paul
We are getting marriend next July and our reception will be at Solera in downtown Minneapolis. We are having a hard time trying to decide on wedding colors. We are probably going to go with black bridesmaid dresses, my dress is ivory. What accent colors would work best with the decor of Solera? I feel like a lot of colors we like would clash. Here is the website: http://solera-restaurant.com/ (Click on the event center tab on the left and then the 3rd floor tab) Any ideas? TIA!

    When I think of Solera, warm, vibrant colors come to mind! You could do a great mix of oranges and reds!

    Red seems like a pretty popular color there. You could always do black and white theme with pops of red or just black and red. If you like gold you could add that in there too, that would look really nice! But like pp said I would stick with warm colors like these rather than bright colors like aqua blue, etc.My friend is using black and white with a deep red and it all looks so pretty!

    I would say reds, yellows, and oranges would be best.

    My cousin had her wedding reception there (3rd floor) a couple of summer's ago and did warm reds and oranges - it looked fantastic!

    I agree with the reds, oranges and yellows. I actually made cupcakes for my friend's wedding there last September. She had sort of a lime greenish color and gold. It actually worked really well too. Solera is a great reception spot.
