Default Wedding color!

Ok I have a bride that is wanting to go with eggplant for a wedding color. She is not sure what color she wants to add to it. Here is her dress she got it in Antique (more of a gold if you don't know).
http://www.bonny.com/index.php?option=com_staticxt&staticfile=gowns.php ?id=768&gline=1&start_page=72&featured=N</b>

So now for my question?
Should she just go with the antique(GOLD) and eggplant
or
Leave the antique out of every thing else and go with a different color that matches eggplant.

If you think a different color with eggplant what color would you choose?

The link to the gown didn't work, sorry.

I would go with a colour that's not the antique and that matches eggplant. I've never liked when the gown matches the decor, so I wouldn't use the gold anywhere other than in the gown. Makes her stand out more.

BEAUTIFUL dress.

It's hard to say with the eggplant. It's such a dark, serious, intense color. what about a sage green? Don't mind me if that is an atrocious pair... this is coming from the girl who always has on something black because then the other color can't clash!

I was going to say a green. but I think a green with a more yellow tone I think will look best.

Ooh that is a gorgeous dress!
How about a medium blue to go with the eggplant? I would love to use eggplant, but I think that might be vetoed by the menfolk.

That is the color of my bedroom and I have some ivory accents to match I think it is beautiful and some sage green here and there might also not be so bad! I have always loved sage green and deep purple together!
