Need opinions for wedding colors!

People are so right when they say picking the colors is one of the hardest decisions.  I can't seem to make up my mind.  So, I need your honest opinions.  So at first I was thinking sage green and brown.  My fiance does not like brown too much.  Then I wanted to add a accent color of coral.  But the more I look at it, I am beginning to think its too much.  What are other options to go with coral besides brown?  Ohh and I will be getting married in September, but it does not have to be an autumn color.  All opinions are greatly appreciated!!!

    I found this site to be helpful for choosing colors - http://www.blissweddings.com/wedding-color-palette/   You can place the two colors together in a box and compare how they look together. 

    Google Coral Wedding Inspiration Board and see what you can find.  The first color that comes to my mind are shades of blue.

    I love this - http://theperfectpalette.blogspot.com/

    there are all sorts of filters on the left (colors, months,theme, etc) and then you can also search at the top.

    The inspiration pics really helped me get more ideas.

    here is the link to coral.

    I've see that grey is a new popular color.  You could switch our brown for grey/silver and pair it with a little brighter green, or even the coral to make it stand out.

    Ditto the perfect palette blog - there are lots of inspiration boards for coral there that are great jumping off points.  You can also look up sage green as well. Good luck!

    We're using gray :-)  Partially because I wanted black but my FI thought it looked too funeral like :-(  But I ended up pairing that with red and ivory and some silver.

    For your colors, I like sage green and purple and maybe even some gold? 

    Or you could do a coral and keep it simple with ivory and then maybe either a gold or a silver/gray?

    Like PPs said, definitely check out those pallates, it's a huge help!

    Personally I love the idea of a sage green and a brown but if you're looking for something to go with coral besides brown, I think teal goes nicely. In fact, I might have to keep that in mind when I plan my wedding colors!

    Thank you girls for all your opinions.  I think we have finally decided, but it may change again! LOL.... I hope I am no the only one changing their colors every single day.  We are going with Sage green and pink(leaning towards the coral shade).  We will incorporate more colors throughout but those are the main ones.
