Choosing linens

Yvette, on November 24, 2020 at 11:38 AM Posted in Style and Décor 0 11

Hello all! I'm in the process of trying to figure out my linen and napkin colors and I'm torn. Our colors are blue, Sage, and hints of champagne. Our groomsmen are wearing a cool shade of blue- don't know what its called: its in between navy and royal blue. We have a groomswoman who is wearing a dress in the same color blue: (Marine at Davids bridal)


Choosing linens 1


My bridesmaid is wearing a sage dress from birdy grey:


Choosing linens 2

And for my dress is misty mauve. but i don't want to incorporate this color anywhere except in the floral (blush roses, etc).


Choosing linens 3

these are the colors they work with:

and this is what the inside of the venue looks like for reference. it is an indoor garden room with greenery everywhere.



Choosing linens 5


Please help! None of the color swatches look good to me, and i think i will end up having to bring my own linens, which i didn't want to do because this is a "destination" wedding and the less i have to bring, the better.

    I recommend going at neutral as possible.

    White tablecloths with royal blue napkins? Most don't use bridesmaid colors to match anything and go with they like best..usually a neutral. Anything you pick will be lovely.

    I also think the linens should be a neutral/natural color. White or a light cream would look good!

    You could always do white linens and incorporate your colors in the centerpieces!

    Thank you everyone. i think neutral would be best too. I like the linens in the venue picture but i don't know where those came from!

    I agree about going ivory or white for tables and doing a blue for the napkins!

    i think often times people think incorporating their colors in a lot is good but sometimes it just kind of overwhelms everything so using it more of an accent is nicer sometimes

    The venue linens are nice! You should ask the venue because they probably work with preferred linen vendors who can point you in the right direction.

    Your colors are similar to mine! I think in that setting, an ivory or seafoam green tablecloth with navy napkins would look nice!

    Check with the vendor. Keep it simple. Liens can really add up and in the end no one is going to even pay attention to that detail. Think about weddings you’ve been to...people remember the music, food, and drinks. No one leaves a wedding saying “man can you believe she picked those liens” lol just relax. Ivory would be best and it’s simple
