Linens

[iluvasoldier]

My wedding colors are chocolate and a burnt orange. My bridesmaids dresses are chocolate.

currently my table linens are: chocolate (the like crinkled shimmery fabric) on the table and chairs, red (same fabric) for the napkins, and darker orange (same fabric) as the like bow thing.

My worry is that my bridesmaids are going to 'melt' and become one with the chair linens. Should I make the chairs red and napkins orange and nix the bow? (i'm not a fan of bows anyways)

OMG I'm so glad you posted this - my colors are the same as yours. This is actually one of the reasons I'm considering splurging on chiavari chairs. I was already started to feel my head spin over the linen options with chairs.

I'm not a fan of the bow either, but I'm wondering if it's needed to keep the chair cover from moving around?

Personally, I'd change the linens as I have issues with the girls matching the tables!

If you don't like the bow and if it isn't a decor staple (like Susie mentioned, maybe the decorating team uses it for a real purpose?), I'd get rid of it!

lol I'll have to e-mail the floral lady and ask if they use it for an actual purpose or just for decoration. The idea of my girls matching the tables wasn't quite in my head in the flurry of me picking linens but after I got home I said to my mom "What if someone accidentally sits on one of them because they blend in so much?" that started my worrying

I agree! I would change the chocolate on chocolate. I think your idea sounds great! You could even do some tables have red chairs/orange napkins and others have orange chairs/red napkins if you wanted

Now I love chocolate brown but that does sound like a lot of brown. Could you do alternate tables?

LOVE this idea!
