Freakin' Tablecloths

I am of the opinion that the details of tablecloths should be a non-stressful decision for a bride & groom to decide for their reception. I mean... it's just tablecloths, right? Don't get me wrong. I completely agree that they should match the theme of the wedding / reception. They are a good way to bring the colors into the room. However, the sales person in charge of the reception hall... should have all the details of what they can / cannot provide. So, when said bride, groom, and bridesmaid (me) spend an hour looking over the various swatches, we won't be surprised to find out that the chosen swatches are not for tablecloths but for overlays! Argh!
