Will this be doing too much????

Michelle, on August 10, 2019 at 1:42 PM Posted in Style and Décor 1 22

My colors are black white and gold. Tablecloths will be black with black and white strip runners. The cake, sweetheart and gift tables will be gold sequins. If I do the cocktail tables in stripes will that be doing too much? Here is a pic of a similar setup of my linens and then a pic of the cocktail tables in stripes

    I don't think it's too much if it compliments the space. In that picture, the black and white plays off the surroundings. However, if there was a patterned carpet or something it might be too busy. It's unique so I think it will look cool either way!

    Oh, in that case, it's a monochromatic color scheme and it would work well. My thought was one of the swirly patterned brown carpets lol.

    I think a lot of us have ugly carpet venues. I guess light colors are harder to keep
    clean.

    I think that's fine because it is still very neutral

    As long as the stripes aren't too close to each other I think it'll be fun

    I think it looks fabulous. It will also divert from the carpet.

    I think it looks good for the dinner, I'm not a big fan of the stripes for the high tables but I think a gold bow would look better with them. I think as long as long as the centerpieces are simple it'll look really fantastic

    My decorator said she would play around with the gold bow and take pics so I would have something to compare it to. And the centerpieces are just going to be candles in glass vases through out the venue because I want a "glow"

    Everything looks beautiful and elegant, however I feel the stripped cocktail tables is a bit too much. It reminds me of Beetlejuice or Halloween.

    Ugh, I hate those! That's why FH and I are getting married at a botanical garden and having the reception in the conservatory.

    I think the pic of the dining room is gorgeous. I'm not sure about the cocktail table.

    I like the stripes on the cocktail tables . Narrower ones would also look good, and might be easier to find.

    A friend found 2" wide stripes, black and white, round 90" and 108" to use for 30, 36 and 48" tables that were 30" or 36"off the floor, for a tent wedding last summer. I am pretty sure they were tableclothsfactory.com. , poly blend. I do not know what else they have, except standard, and sequined or lamé in gold and silver and black, not always available, but she had some last summer.
