Hi Kevin,
You want to lessen the amount of yellow with other colors that go with it. That's a split complementary system.

Yellow and colors that make a triangle are primary, but they are split complamentary also. Any two colors that are equal in distance from the main color.  That means that the 2 colors right next to the opposit complementary color are a split complement set also. You could use the whole range of sets, but always have a full set represented.
