Hello!

I need some help choosing napkin colors for my Halloween wedding this October. I didn’t want any colors that screamed (no pun intended) Halloween like bright orange or red. I definitely want colors that are more subdued, like us!

Here’s what’s already on the table:

Black tablecloths

Black glossy plates

Metallic gold cutlery

Metallic gold charger for centerpiece which contains black glossy candles and white roses

Metallic gold table number holders with white cardstock

Metallic gold vampire teeth name holders with white cardstock

White led candles with flickering amber flame

I should also note that we are serving signature “blood” cocktails that are available to those who choose which will be a very dark red.

All of our other colors are pretty much black, gold, & white less our graveyard lighting which will be purple, blue, and green.

I’ve attached some photos that are similar to our table setting as I don’t have any photos of mine yet along with the napkin color swatches.

So far the colors I am liking (in no particular order) are:

Burgundy

Charcoal

Amethyst

Regal Purple

Plum

I’m hoping you all can help me choose from these! Thank you!

*I just realized you can't zoom the swatches photo. Burgundy is 2nd page, 3rd row down, 4th swatch (left to right). Charcoal is on the 2nd page, 1st row, 3rd swatch. Amethyst is on the 1st page, 4th row, 1st swatch. Plum is 1st page, 4th row, 2nd swatch. Regal Purple is 1st page, 4th row, 3rd swatch.

    Thanks Jayla! I'm not doing a bouquet. Smiley smile No ceremony. We opted for a private ceremony, just the two of us, while on our honeymoon in Italy. The reception will be a blast! Thanks for your input. I'll try to get pictures up after!

    I’m a fan of the burgundy. I just think it’s really going to pop and be absolutely stunning.

    I think the colors you've selected would all go great together. I'm leaning more towards the purple since it's Halloween but if it were a normal fall wedding, I'd pick the burgundy.
