Default Color reassurance

OK, so my wedding is in about two and half months. August 16th, 2008. I have almost everything planned but I need an outsiders opinion. I mean everything is pretty much set but I just want to make sure I am not putting together something tacky. LOL... what I want is romantic.

The best way to describe my dress is that it is a princess dress. It is ivory (looks white to me) with a lot of sparkle. It is poofy! I love it! My viel is cathederal length that I will wear for the ceremony and take it off for the reception.

The bridesmaids are wearing floor length champange colored gowns by alfredo angelo. They have a little train on the back that opens up and underneath that will be ivory. (Which matches my dress) It is lovely! I would totally wear that dress.

My bouquet is going to be deep pink with some sparkle in it. Not much just a little. And then the stems are going to be wrapped in a sage green ribbon. The bridesmaids bouquets will be deep and medium pink roses with also a sage green ribbon.

My groom is wearing a black tux with a black vest and deep pink tie to match the flowers. And an ivory shirt. The groomsmen are wearing a pink tie and pink vest. (Same color as the groom.) Boutineers will be ivory roses.

The ceremony will take place at 5 in an old historic church. It is so pretty!

Then the recepetion tables will have an ivory table cloth with a sage green runner. And then there will be a vase with deep pink/medium pink roses and ivory roses in it. We are also having some other flowers in there. Not sure how to describe it but it is keeping with the pink/green/ivory colors. The cake will also have those color flowers on the top. The recpetion is going to take place at a golf course which is near the church.

The favors are the valentines day m&m's. Just the two shades of pink in an ivory bag with a pink ribbon. The invitations are on ivory paper with a hint of pink paper sticking out behind it. I would have to post a picture. But I did those myself. I really like how they turned out.

Also the flower girl is wearing a white dress with a pink flower and green sash. And the ring bear will be in a black tux with a pink tie. The flower girl basket and pillow are ivory.

Does this sound to much or that it doesn't go together? I guess I just need some reassurance. My mom and bridesmaids like it. So does my FMIL but I just wanted some other opinions.

Thanks for reading my babble!
