Painting/Restaining Cabinets

I have been lurking a bit and read a thread on here about white cabinets versus wood. Right now we are in the beginning stages of a kitchen remodel. I have nice soild oak cabinets that I am not too fond of. They are great cabinets and I like the layout of them, but don't like the color. When we remodel I will be adding a few more cabinets (possibly) and think I can find some to match what I have now (I really don't want to get all new cabinets because of the cost). My question is: Is it worth painting (this would be an off white with a stain to age them) or restain (a darker color) my cabinets? I would hire a professional to do this most likely, but just want to make sure this would be the most cost effective. I mean if it would only be a $1000 to buy new doors I may go that route. I know very little about kitchens and the costs of remodeling them so I am sure I will learn a lot in the next few months! Thanks
