Please help my fiancé and I with our palette!
We are getting married in the old English-style dining hall of a university campus (very Hogwarts) in late September of this year. We are having a terrible time trying to come up with a look for the semi-formal sit-down dinner reception that reflects our modern and classic tastes, that fits with the time of year and the historic grandeur of the space, and doesn’t look too traditional “fall” (no apples and sheaves of wheat).
My dress is ivory and the bridesmaids are in chocolate brown, but other than that we haven’t come up with a color scheme that works for us. We’d love something that has a kind of old-fashioned glamour that translates into a space with long dining tables, stone floors, and vaulted ceilings. I'm at my wits end to come up with something that looks cohesive. Any suggestions you or your readers have would be greatly appreciated!
