| The fancier you go, the more your costs will go up. Since one of your colours is ivory, you may want to stay away from the white linens that will probably come standard. I think pewter tablecloths would look lovely  Do you have photos of your reception venue?

Renting linens is an additional expense but well worth it in my opinion. At $25 per table, provided you don't have 50 tables, it's only a few hundred bucks more and it sets a completely different ambience for your guests. If you hire a decorator obviously expect to fork out another few grand but for just linens, it shouldn't be too much more. It's the difference between "that looks nice" and "that looks WOW!"
I agree that Pewter would be nice and would probably help break up the white in the room from the ivory in your theme colours - it is a nice segue colour between white and ivory if you know what I mean. You might even try going with a champagne colour linen, in a satin fabric. That goes well with both pewter and ivory, I'd think.
