 I can't decide which to go with, black or white. We are not having chair covers (the chairs we will have are the ones in the pics), and decoration and things on tables will be bright colours so can't decide!

I don't think white goes with the chairs, but looks more normal and bright.
I like the black and think that it will help things stand out, but will it make the room look dark?

What do you think?

 I think the mad hatter would have gone for white, plus it looks more fresh and upbeat, I personally think the black is too dark for such a fun theme! emoticon Good Luck deciding!

 @freyakins are these pictures of the new chairs or the old ones? I personally would go for the white as i think the black will look too dark and as it's a summer wedding the white ones will add a nice fresh and clean vibe to the day. I definitely prefer the white ones. Perhaps you could have some table runners in black or another colour if you wanted the contrast?

 @freyakins I think the white ones go better as @missglovesteas and @tinks1985 both say its too dark to have black chairs and tablecloths xx

 @freyakins hey hun i actually like the black one, but as the girls said it may make the room look dark, although, there looks like there is a good amount of light in the room. xx

 @freyakins I personally prefer the white but i think the black would look better with your centrepieces as they would stand out better with them being white x

 Personally I would go for the white as think it looks more summer weddingy and will make your room lighter. I do actually really like the black though and think it would make everything on your table stand out really well! I would be worried it would make the room dark though. x
