Need help with the colors for my wedding reception what color best fits a fall wedding ?

Question

I need help with what colors to pick for the linen of the reception. I told the banquet manager that i wanted the color champagne for the table and chocolate Brown for the napkins. what else could look better

Answer 1

Oh, dear, if you are conservative, I'm the wrong person to ask! Brown and champagne would be classy, but I would get some color there also. Burnt orange is a deep rich color that goes so well with chocolate and champagne. Could you have a stripe or a napkin accent with that color? What color[s] are your centerpiece? Pick out one color, and use that on the table, too. Maby some beads across the napkin, or a third color on the menus. Might even tie a ribbon or some beads around a candle in that 3rd color.

Me, I would have the brown cloth,  burnt orange napkins, pick one color out of the bouquet for a table accent, then go nuts with the bouquet centerpiece, mostly have burnt orange, but also that deep rich red, purple, gold, and green and champagne.

My maids would hate me, 'cause somebody would be wearing each of those colors.

My friends used to sigh with relief when I said that I wanted pink or red at my wedding, knowing they would  not have to suffer that agony. Bet they would run screaming if I mentioned the fall idea!

Answer 4

i'm doing a fall wedding because those colours compliment me best.  We are using burnt orange, probably accented with some chocolate browns (like some brown napkins or something small to highlight the orange a bit more, kind of like what you are doing) deep greens will work too.  Think of leaves turning colours and everything else you associate with fall and think of those colours. that's what I did.

EDIT: check out www.theknot.com and sign up (its free) they have plenty of ideas sorted by colour. I was actually JUST looking at the orange ones when I read this. lol.  But they have so many.  people post their own wedding photos so you can get an idea of what REAL weddings look like not just posed ones.
