New color ideas

I saw a beautiful bouquet of green and white flowers that made me totally reconsider the entire color scheme for the wedding. See how difficult I am to deal with?

Hear me out, kids. I love tiger lilies, but to be honest, I was never really a fan of orange. The more the idea has sat in my head, the more I began thinking of new ideas. I was totally set on eggplant for the dresses and on the tables and everything like that, so I started looking up other flowers to find a color that would look good with it. I came up with some muted olive greens. In addition to that, even though I was thinking of having a champagne colored dress, I've been thinking of white as well. This color scheme would look pretty with white or beige or champagne or whatever, but for the sake of these pictures, lets just say I chose white instead of champagne. How pretty would these tables and these flowers look together?





Just imagine more of the purple tones on the table, and this looks perfect. Plus, since we don't know a date yet, I think the scheme works well for a late summer OR early fall night. Also, as I'm sure everyone is aware, I love the color black. White lends itself beautifully to black, whereas a champagne color is better suited for browns, I think. Long story short, I think I want a white dress now. But who knows? This post proves I'm pretty indecisive.
