Hi! I am getting married in a historic mansion next October (here is a recent wedding that happened there recently - it’s called the Mansions on Fifth: https://burghbrides.com/blog/dramatic-black-white-mansions-on-fifth-wedding/)
I want a dark/moody color scheme (but not creepy/Halloween-ish). I want to use black table cloths like shown in the photos), but decided on this after I already started thinking of/buying decor in my other colors. The other colors I am thinking of are burgundy, dark teal, and navy with greenery and accents of either gold or rose gold/copper (opinions on that, too, please!). I plan on using vintage books in those colors (burgundy, blue/navy, dark teal, and black) for my centerpieces with lots of candles, greenery, and potentially one of those geometric gold frame/lantern things (https://www.efavormart.com/products/2-pack-12-rectangular-gold-metal-wedding-flower-stand-geometric-centerpiece-vases?variant=31651280388142&gclid=CjwKCAjw2P-KBhByEiwADBYWCrTIXuJ10sr96GYTzOdPMgUZW6_0l2NX_-RIcssBtDdwd5RkGtQ_txoCvs0QAvD_BwE).
All of this being said, do you think black table cloths with burgundy/navy/dark teal black books, and lots of metallic gold or rose gold accents would look good, especially considering the venue and vintage theme? The only black would really be in the table cloths snd some of the vintage books. Everything else would be one of those other colors. I suppose some of the candle votives around the venue would be white/ivory. If this color combo sounds icky/too dark, what color combo would you recommend? I’d prefer to keep my black tablecloths because it’s not within my budget to pay for upgraded tablecloths.
