It's going to be near impossible to match teal. Every company's definition of the color is different. I suggest going with another color all together or live with the fact that it won't match.
@JoJo Bananas: Yeah. So I've found out. LOL It is a little late to change the colors (especially of the dresses) but I'm ok with either but when I decided ok it won't match, no one will die, I got a funny look from a relative. <shrug>
My bridesmaids wore tealness and I had navy overlays on the tables. I didn't even attempt to have anything else in the wedding be teal because I knew it wouldn't work.
No one cares if the dresses match everything else in the wedding. The only people who will notice are other brides-to-be and recent brides. Go for the oasis and tealness.
I am in a similar situation. My BM dresses are Mori Lee's tiffany blue and my napkins and overlays are aqua. It's up to you to decide how important this is to you, but I decided I didn't care if the dresses didn't match the table linens. I figured no one would notice/care. I've come to the conclusion that as long as the linens are some shade of light bluish then I'm ok with that, I don't need to stress about yet another thing.
Those rich, jewel tones can be really hard to match and honestly, I wouldn't worry about matching it perfectly to the BM dresses. Go with the overlay that you love and let me tell you why. No one will really notice the difference and you only have a few BMs whereas the table linens are a huge focus of the wedding. I would rather have the linens that I really love rather than go with something not so much just to get it a little closer.
Don't fret!

I'm using Teal, Chocolate and Gold for my wedding colors. I FINALLY selected a bridesmaid dress by Alfred Angelo in the shade Tealness (pretty limited on designers with a teal in their color line up) however I was having a hard time finding an overlay to match and other accessories. I did finally select a shade called Oasis by one company and found accessories in the exact same shade (just called Teal) at Michaels. Problem is Oasis and Tealness aren't the same shade. Tealness is a little darker teal. I've now found an overlay in a shade extremely close to the Tealness color. The problem is I like the brighter Oasis shade (not David's Bridal Oasis) better with the table decor and the gold and the chocolate but it doesn't match the dresses the darker Peacock color does...what should I do? I'm torn. Does it really matter, it will be dark/dim in the ballroom so I shouldn't worry and just use the two different shades (they don't clash or anything) or go with the matching darker color that I don't love (but like enough) and look for accessories to match? I still love the combination either way but you know how when things come together one shade just jumps out at you? I'm probably over thinking this but with trying to finalize and shop it keeps coming back up and I need to just settle it. What would you do?
