Wedding Color and Decorations Suggestions?

We are having an outdoor summer wedding in the evening next year, probably in the country on a farm (not with cows and pigs and chickens, that's just what we in the South call big pieces of open land in the country). lol

I am up to hearing ANY suggestions you have. Who knows, I might go with something I never would have thought of!

If it helps, we are wanting a somewhat country feel (not sunflowers and gingham check tablecloths), but maybe mason jars with candles in them. Something more old-timey and antiquey (is that a word?) lol

I love summery colors! My favorite color is BLUE and I know that I want some things to be blue. Maybe several different shades and tones of blue?

I REALLY like AQUA BLUE and TURQUOISE, colors that remind me of the ocean and beach, my favorite place in the world.

What are some other colors that I can use with aqua or turquoise or both?

Thanks for the help! Remember, I open to ALL suggestions!

I love that you're incorporating some southern flair into your wedding! Have you thought about using a monochromatic color sceme? Like using *only* blues, but in a variety of different shades. I have seen it done, and it looks so beautiful.

Also, I think that pastels like pale yellow or pink would look good with the colors you mentioned.

Another idea: since you're having your wedding at sunset, I think it would look be so gorgeous to match your color scheme to sunset colors...blues, pinks, oranges, yellows. Then it would be kind of a 'country sunset' theme. I LOVE that!

Just a few ideas...try not to stress about it too much! Once you get a 'theme' down, I think it makes it much easier. Also, weddings.about.com has A LOT of wedding info.
