Will this look good, or would it be too much???

Hi, my fiance and I are getting married married 10/10/10 in the NC mountains outside of a beautiful farm house.  Here are pictures of my dress:

Now, I've been searching for wedding colors for the past two days,  and I think I may have come up with something.  I would like for the bridesmaids to wear gold dresses with deep plum accents (maybe the shoes or a ribbon), and I want the groomsmen to wear gray tuxes with the deep plum vests and ties. I want my fiance to wear a latte or tan tux with the deep plum vest and tie. Our flowers of choice are sunflowers.
Here you can find our venue:

it doesn't have a picture that shows where we are having the reception (which will be indoors in the large living area), but it'll give you an idea.

I like anything that is unique and different, becaue I want my wedding to stand out.  For our reception, I think I will add navy in the mix here and there (maybe?)
I'm thinking plum tablecloths with champagne/cream toppers, navy napkins, silver chargers, sunflowers with lanterns for centerpieces, gold chairs.

I guess I am kind of going with an elegant country/vintage vibe for the whole shebang.  Do you think the colors I have chosen will work?  Or am I crazy?  I can picture it in my head, and in my head it looks lovely, but I guess I need some assurance.  Sorry for the long post, I'm up for any suggestions!

  • the colors sound great, depending on the exact shades they can have a lush, or rustic feel, I think the sunflowers will keep it all soft and sweet, but modern, your venue is Fabu! and that dress is killing me! talk about hottie bride dress!
  • I think your colors will be complementary and your vision will work well.
