u sure you want dover white w/the verona quartz? have you painted a door sample and held it up against the countertop? many people complain after install that the cabs look dingy next to the quartz. Dover White on cabs and quartz countertop. this is what you want? as for your backsplash, you aren't providing any pictures of the kitchen. how can we possible pick anything? just wait until everything is installed, post a picture and then figure out the splash. hood vent? on something we can't see? becky, help us out here. don't have a clue what style cabinets you're doing or what the layout/ceiling/flooring looks like. post a picture because we aren't clairvoyant. is this your countertop? then go with Simply White and a vent like this (and use the slab up the back if you have enough of it) your creamy white paint isn't going to look like this brighter white cab color. which brand are you using? most of what I see the white is very white. I'd seriously rethink using Dover White

We found 3 whites that we love together. The cabinets are a dove white, counter top is Viatera Minuet quartz (the smaller sample on the edge) and backsplash is Lansdale Carrera Amalfi from the Tile Shop. The marble is creamy with very subtle warm veining and tiny sparkly flecks. Fingers crossed that when we get the marble in larger quantities it is as uniform as the box they had at the store!!! The color variation on the sample we have is very subtle and diffuse and does not fight with the counter top.

Get a sample of your cabinet doors, and then bring it to visit the samples of counters in your favorite show room. Nobody can guess.

I think what you are considering would be lovely. Don’t get hung up on design terms to the point that they limit your choices. I assume that, when you install new counters, you will eliminate the 4 inch backsplash.
