Please cast your vote ASAP

Hey Everyone! Sorry I've taken such a long break from blogging. Just getting excited for summer and all of the fun things it brings here in the Wall world. Anyway, this is going to be quick, but I need some help, and I need some input and opinion fast.
I took on a project that is WAY bigger than I anticipated, but it will totally be worth it in the end. I am re-doing my kitchen! Farewell purple...you've been good to us...:)....but farewell! Anyway, I thought I knew everything that I wanted, and now I am struggling. What I originally wanted was this....
Antiqued white kitchen cabinets. I love it! I think they are so rustic, and so my style. However, I am finding that this may not work in my kitchen because I am not doing new cabinets. I am just re-doing the current ones to save on our budget. And as my finisher explained to me, that may be more difficult to do because of the paint that is on there now, but if we have an extra few hundred dollars(which we don't) than we could do this.

So now I am bummed, and trying to decide which solid color for my kitchen would I like best? I have painted the walls the same color as my entryway and hallway which is a nice tan color. So what will I like better? Black cabinets which are sleek, totally Ashley style, not going to show so many little finger prints...but the drawbacks are that it may make my SMALL kitchen look even darker and SMALLER!

Or do I want beautiful and bright white cabinets that will probably brighten the room, help with the illusion of it being bigger...but show every little finger print that Adi and Emi's grime covered hands will touch?

Please cast your vote ASAP. I NEED HELP!!!!
