Color combination help

our living and dining area walls is painted "Green Grape." I hate this color but my wife liked it. I originally had a dark orange/rust color going but she hated it. Anyway, now it's green grape. I need some recommendations on what to paint the ceiling. Right now it's just primered white. Should I just get a bone or antique white? It looks too boring with a white ceiling but I don't want want to have a wrong combination either. I want it to compliment the darker cherry floors so should I paint it like a light brown or tan? Beige? Help.

The color actually looks like this friggin smiley like I painted the room with a big green highlighter!!??

Check out Sherwin-Williams website to visualize any combinations. Click on the link below and click on "Launch Color Visualizer" in the middle of the screen to see what colors work with grape.

tried it and nothing seemed to work except white. Might have to repaint the place again.

You could paint it a similar tone of bright orange

BTW. Dark cherry can never go with Hi Liter/Neon Orange or any other type of saturated colors.
