Linens
Hey ladies, I need some advice please!
My colors are chocolate brown, sage, and ivory. My centerpieces are sage - fabric covered- hat boxes and will have ivory roses inside. I had been planning on having dark brown-floor-length linens. The only ones available as part of my package are polyester, very little shine to the material. Will that look ok? They have some beautiful ivory linens, striped and such. Should I stick with my original thought, brown, or go with fancier ivory. What do you think? Thanks!

Hi! I personally think ivory table cloths (with the green boxes, and chocolate napkins) would look gorgeous and rich. Just imagining it, I see brown tablecloths as making the space really dark. Brown tends to absorb light, and if, like you said, they only have dull polyester, it probably wouldn't look as good as you wanted it to. Maybe you could go do a demo tables with the ivory and chocolate tablecloths? Otherwise, Jen's idea is a good one!
Hi Andrea.
What color is the decor of the reception room? That helped us decide. I originally wanted fall colored table cloths. I had seen pictures of a wedding that had these beautiful burgundy and burnt orange linens and it was stunning. But it was an outdoor wedding, green grass, under big white tent, and it really worked well, but when I looked at my venue, the decor is predominantly blue/green and gold. The walls are neutral ivory. We decided to go with ivory tablecloths with burgundy napkins so nothing would clash.
I think the ivory linens will look good. The centerpieces will be the focal point of the tables and I think it will enhance the sage color. If your budget allows, go for the ivory linens unless you have your heart set on the dark brown linens.
