Changing our minds and tablecloths

We finished our little kelly & lime green tissue poms tonight (finally!) and I had the thought that we should double check the color against the tablecloth we had picked out.

I am G.L.A.D. that we did...

Emerald Shimmer, the original choice. It's pretty in bright light, but in dull light, it looks almost... brown.

Seeing the poms against this tablecloth was a total and complete fail. So we asked to see all other green tablecloths.

The new choice. Granny smith! It's so bright! But looks GREAT with the colored poms and has a nice silver sheen. I think it'll really brighten up the room and looks really spring-y. I'm pretty excited with the change. Though seeing the huge piece of bright green fabric was a little overwhelming! (*It looked far more reasonable with the plates, flatware, and glassware on it.)

So after the linen change... we thought about our chairs. We had initially picked light wood chairs, to use for the ceremony and then the reception. With the darkish cloth, the darker chairs made more sense. But now...


I think the white will, number one, look way better outside on the lawn and number two work with the cheerier linens to brighten up and spring-ize the space.

Thoughts on the changes?
