YAY! I found the perfect colors....

[neebelung]

YAY... I think I've finally found colors that are juuuuuust right. I actually requested some swatches from an online linens rental co... The turqoise shade is what we'd really envisioned from the start, with a green accent, but now that I see the three colors together, we might go with the jade as the dominant color, and the seamist as the accent (or who knows, we might somehow use all three).

Here's the turquoise...


The Seamist


And the Jade....


And for those who missed my other thread (about floral ideas) here's the overall feel we're going for (though they've got the colors reversed, using the green shade as the dominant color)

That's going to look fantastic!!

I've never heard of an online linens rental company. Where is it? I might be interested!

Thank you!! I'm so excited... I feel like things are starting to come together.

Hah! Too funny... I was just thinking of posting up asking if anyone has used one before. The location we're interested in provides plain white, and they MIGHT have some colors, but I'm not sure what.....

I'd gotten a post card from one several weeks ago and then ran across them on a local wedding planner's site today, and I found another on one of the wedding site (I think it was Premier Weddings or something)

Here's the ones I've found so far:

Also, after I requested a catalogue from Chair Covers Online, I got an automated email; they ask for your headcount and if you have an idea of what you want, and they'll generate a ballpark quote for you. (I haven't received the quote yet, as this was just this afternoon, but still, that's a great idea, just so you know ahead of time if it's doable or not!)

That jade looks so pretty! Can't wait to see how everything looks together!

I agree. I think all three of those colors are beautiful and go very well together.

In the photo of the table, I love the green tablecloth too. It kind of brings all of the colors together without being too much.

Great choices girl, and I can't wait to see the photos of everything too!

AH, now that's a good point... I hadn't thought of the green shade as the "anchor"... hmmmm...... Cus I will have green in the flowers...

Hmmmm..... Ok, so maybe I stick with green as the dominant and the blue as the accent.... (thinking... thinking.....)

Oooooh! I see what you mean. I just re-read your post and saw that you are/were going to use the blue as the dominant. I think you can totally do that, and then use the 'softer' colors as accents.

But, and this is just my opinion - I'm not very adventurous when it comes to bright colors - I would use the softer shade of green as the dominant and then use the blues as accents. In that photo, the napkins just "pop" on that tablecloth & look beautiful.

It also looks to me that the chair covers are blue too, is that right? I'm looking to the right of the photo at that square of blue. It would be so beautiful to have a table set up that way.

Keep in mind that my wedding colors were black and white - with red and silver accents, lol. I guess I'm boring.

Yes, we definitely want to do the chair covers in the same color, and I'd like to do an organza chair sash (again, tie it all in, but also keep some softness and sheerness to it all).

I dunno... I'm on the fence now as to which will be the dominant color (it's easy since the ballroom we're looking at will be totally redone in January, and it'll all be muted, neutral colors... so we're not competing with the room).

No, no, you're not boring at all... LOL... this is Florida - we like things kinda bright down here.

I love those colors!!! They are definately beautiful!!! I LOVE the Jade color. Its my favorite!!!

[Chris'sGirl]

Oh, I love the turqoise color! My birth stone is blue topaz (December) and there are so many variations of it. It will look great!
