Stain stairs same color as floor?

Q: We are going to have our main floor, oak, sanded and stained a darker color than it currently is. What do we do with the stairs? Leave them the lighter natural color? Or stain them darker to match? Then do we paint the banister a chocolate brown to complete the look?

A: I think I would do the stair to match. Paint the pickets, but have the hand rail stripped and stained to match also.
