  • How about either Emerald green or Royal Blue? If you wanted you could even tie in purple.

    I couldn't even understand this without reading it a few times. And had a hard time with the word "elegant" in the same paragraph as "da" and "no" instead of "know" with "dnt" and "wut". 

    OP.  Please type actual words/sentences.  But, in answer to what I think your question is. I would try royal blue, pewter or silver. 
  • Everyone give her a break....lol....

    I think you should go with rich deep colors... deep purples/blues and then hit it with an out of the way bright color like a light green as an accent color..

    Here is an inspiration







     Here are some ideas :

  • You said you want to look unique and elegant in black. Does this mean you're wearing black? Hate to break it to you, but depending on where you are in the country and time of day, a lot of your guests will be wearing black too. 
  • Purple or green would look really nice against the black. Depending on what hue you choose, the color would "pop" against the darkness of the black. I would try to stay away from anything dark, though.
  • I think a unique but cool-looking choice with the peacock theme is a vibrant lime green.  It really pops against black!

    If that's a little too much for you and you don't want the classic teal/black, you could do a bright blue or green, purple, or gold (there is actually a gold-ish sheen to the feathers so this matches nicely).
