Paint color help!

I need help! So my house was built in the 80's. I recently painted the orangey oak cabinets white. I inherited the wall color from the previous owners and it's Avon Green (very dark, hunter green - leans towards blueish.) The Avon Green is also on a huge vaulted wall that is visible from the kitchen and extends through the great room to the front door. The other walls are Blond Wood and Barely Beige. (All colors by Benjamin Moore.)

I feel like the green is way too dark next to my newly painted cabinets. I need a color that will go okay with the existing paint colors because I'm not prepared to deal with that huge vaulted wall. My first instinct was yellow but my husband says no. He thinks its outdated. I thought it was more classic.

Thoughts? And if you think I should stick with yellow and try to convince him would you vote more light and buttery, bright or honeyish?
