Inspiration for Our Black & White Theme

I thought about black and white for a while, but couldn't really picture the idea. I was actually leaning toward an antique fall theme prior to honing in on the black, white, and chartreuse color scheme. Then I came across a black and white damask print, and it just clicked. I could just picture it! Here is a swatch of damask print:

Then I stumbled across this bride's shower, and she happened to have a very similar idea...black and white damask with green. A different hue of green and a lot more of it, but still fantastic.
