Hi Everyone,
I'm stumped on wedding colors and my fiance is indifferent about them ("Whatever you like" - thanks, but that isn't helpful! >_<). Our wedding is next June at a venue by the lake, taking place at around sunset. The reception will be at the same location, but indoors. There aren't huge windows in the reception hall so what it'll look like outside won't really affect what it'll look like on the inside, and there aren't any distinct features about the hall.
My only sort-of starting point is that I've always loved crimson/dark red. I've talked with my bridesmaids about tentatively wearing crimson/dark red dresses. Should I go from there, or start from scratch? I've looked through tons of photos for red weddings but it's hard to feel it out without having any actual experience with these things. 
I'm troubled because dark red doesn't go with much. Red and green would look Christmasy (as would red and white), red and yellow is too much on my Chinese side than I'd care to go, red and blue feels like it would contrast too hard. I am attracted to the idea of red and black, but I'm worried about that looking gothic/pretentious/bad. If there was a way to pull that off elegantly though I'd love that!
I'd be really interested in hearing what you guys think!!
