This is also why you want to experiment a lot beforehand, so you can figure out what you like, and what you think looks good on you. This is an important step!
Meanwhile, I would vote for a sort of smoke-grey eyeliner, pale silvery-green and lavender eyeshadow, and lipstick that matches your hair, or at least coordinates. Skip the blush entirely; you'll probably end up with enough compliments that you won't need any makeup for it. ;)
(This would be on the more formal end of the spectrum for a formal event, however. Less formal, def. go with a more natural lipstick, and maybe play up your eyes more -- you really don't want to emphasize both of them, but you don't want to emphasize neither of them, either.)
