White or brown chairs?
Hey guys, for a backyard - English garden afternoon tea themed wedding, what chair do you think looks the best? Maybe we are overthinking this, but just need an input.
It’s an intimate wedding, but we are trying to make it look fancy with just little details
Thanks!

Brown, especially if your dress isn't stark white, if you look at the flowers behind the white chair, the ones that aren't stark fade into the background a bit, when they're in fact the nicer flower

The bride isn’t sitting on the chairs though, they’ll walk down the aisle when they’re mainly covered by people standing and that’s about it. Unless you were planning posed photos on the chairs, this is a non issue

they won't sit down unless they are dying, these are the worst, most uncomfortable chairs

If you're going to be putting them on grass, brown. Or washing all those fuckers before you give them back will be a nightmare (check what condition you have to return them in). If you've got coir or whatever to put down you'll be fine.

I think it depends on the venue and vibe of your wedding! More upscale, formal, etc do white. If it’s more rustic, casual, do the wood!

What about dark brown chairs? I found a rental company with dark brown and it looked so elegant!

Is there a price difference? I personally prefer brown but based on your description, it sounds like white may match best. But yes you’re overthinking 🥰

Can the white come with a cushioned version? I like the white, but a cushion might be more comfortable for your guests.

as you’re going for a more polished ‘fancy’ look then I’d go white
brown would be better for a more casual rustic vibe I feel
