Colour of Table Linen???

Caz72, 18 June, 2014 at 16:12 Posted on Planning 0 7

I have chosen an ivory wedding dress. Is it better to go with ivory table linen, i.e table cloths and napkins or stick with white?

    There are a million shades of white and a million shades of ivory - don't tie yourself in knots. White will be fine Smiley smile

    I couldn't even tell you what colour our table linen was. I don't think they ever gave me a choice.

    I don't think your guests will notice, so probably not worth worrying about ?

    Thanks everyone!

    We have most things boxed off now and I guess I'm getting hung up on the details as the day draws closer ? Must be my OCD coming through!! ?

    I keep hearing about white things making an ivory dress look grubby.

    Think we just have white and don't have a choice! Not thought about it to be honest!

    Pahahahaha!

    I thought you were going to say "I'm having a pink themed wedding, should I have pink table linen or would that be too much?".

    Standard white is fine. The bride rarely gets compared to a tablecloth ? .

    When you sit down, ask a waiter to bring you two more napkins though. It took three to cover my dress on my lap (I'm not that fat, but the dress poofs up when you sit down if you've got petticoat layers). My husband is a messy eater at the best of times, and I had visions of him dropping food all over me!

    (ps. answer would have been - too much!)
