Opinions on these colours

Hi all

I think I have finally decided on my colours and just wondered what evryone thought. It is my dress that has influenced the colour really as I originally wanted purple, but it did not look right with my dress when we tried them togehter in the shop.

So this is my dress
http://www.essensedesigns.com/dress-D1239 in the off !!!!! with the off white belt.

The colour that went the best was a sage green colour (its more of a sage that the picture looks) http://www.dessy.com/dresses/bridesmaid/2844/?color=celadon&colorid=10#.UCO6nkRaMy4 its the kiwi colour. The bridesmaid dresses do look amazing next to my dress!

So sage green and off white...pretty simple apart from the fact that most things come in white or ivory. Now the dress is nowhere near ivory really, it's much closer to white that ivory. Plus I will be wearing silver/pearl accessories on the day. Therefore I am thinking all together....white, sage green and silver hints. Opinions please :D

    It's in August. I was thinking might put a bit of colour on table arrangements/bm flowers with a dusky pink:cool:

    a dusty pink/ peach would add another touch of colour but I love the green and off white combo.

    I love the colours, a bit of dusky pink in the bouquets with the green and off white will be stunning!!
