    Okay so my wedding is in two months and I think I am officially freaking out and to top it off I keep changing my color scheme:) Luckily our indoor reception is like a green and blue garden (green plants, hanging and potted) and blue banquet chairs. White linens will cover the tables and there are chandeliers int he room with lots of natural light provided by floor to ceiling windows overloking trees (well, branches in February:))

    I've bought a lot of flowers on dioscount to make an indoor garden but I think I have so many that now it's har to choose so I'm enlisting the help of fellow bees! Purple is my favorite color and it's on the invites so that's definitely in...but what else...

    I'd love to get your opinions!

    I like the plum and blush combo. It seems very elegant and wintery to me.

    Haha! Looks like we're really evenly divided on this one at this point! My wedding colors are chocolate brown and green, but I decided to add plum/purple into the mix for some flair. All of these combos are beautiful! :)

    Thanks again ladies! I love the red and purple too:) I just don't want it to look to Valentines-ey:)

    I got these gorgeous candelabras to bring in some bling and these wired birdcages with flower embellishments made entirely of pearls and beads so I'm hoping it will be more of a colorful bejeweled winter garden!

    I originally voted for the purple and red and after looking through your photos want to change my mind. :) I vote for the purple and blush. It has a regal, yet vintage feel about it. I love it!

    I used several of the same images you have when I planned my wedding. Mine was deep eggplant purple and orange. Lanterns, votives and lots and lots of color. It was beautiful!

    Congrats! Let us know what you choose!

    purple and red!!! omg I love it!!! and also bcuz those are my colors!!! haha

    Ive changed my mind a few times as well.. i started off with purple and black first.. and now added red cuz I think it really makes everything pop!!

    my 2nd choice would be plum and blush.. those are very pretty too!!! It gives it more of a soft touch, which is very beautiful... I just know that i wanted the colors to really pop, and i think purple and red are perfect for that!! My tablecloths are black, have high and low centerpieces, with purple and red flowers... have purple uplighting all over room, candles everwhere... bridesmaids dresses are black.. my dress is ivory... their bouquets are purple and mine is soft white... My concern with going with soft colors, would be that it might look too pale... unless u have a coordinator helping u.. and lots of money to make it work...... We dont, so we want to make use of everything to make our wedding pop!

    I like purple, fushcia, blue and pink too!!! I think ull be good with any of those top 3 choices!!

    cant wait to hear what u picked!!
