My bridesmaids are going to wear a kinda champagne gold dress.
My partner wants to wear a cream/ivory five piece suit.
what colour should i put the Bestman in, and the guys who walk down the aisle with the bridesmaids. i was thinking brown with gold tie. I dont want them to stand out more than my partner. any ideas?

I agree with the person who said there's not much color here, and I'd want some color. Maybe a sash on the bridesmaids dresses that you could copy in the ties of the groomsmen? The groom will stand out if he's wearing a completely different color than the groomsmen as well, so don't worry about that. And other than the lack of color, it sounds great to me. I'd match the ties/vests/cumberbunds to the bridesmaids dresses.
Also, this is just my opinion, my hubby wore all ivory at our wedding, and I had an white dress. The pictures are blah, because there's not much color, and there's really no contrast between us either. You might want to have him re-think the cream/ivory. I mean, it looks ok, I just wish looking at it years later I would've done it differently.

Go with what you want and pleases yourself and your partner. Everyone's taste is different so what you read here no matter how helpful and knowledgable the answer comes over others are not going to perhaps like it. Don't be influenced as what you or anyone chooses isn't going to be the perfect look for all. Lets face it if it was there would be no variations in wedding wear. Just for the record I think what you are suggestion sounds lovely and all the colours toning in fantastic. With very best wishes.

Seems to me like you need a splash of color in there, you are going with white wedding dress, champagne bridesmaids, cream suit for the groom and now you want to put your best man and groomsman in brown? And what are the pieces in a "5" piece suit? I count pants, jacket, vest, cummerbund where is the 5th piece? Try a lighter color than brown for the guys and maybe mix it up a bit by finding a bow tie and cummerbund that have some kind of design with all your colors, just to splash it up a bit.... Congratulations by the way, I wish you many, many years of happiness.

That sounds good - at a recent wedding fair, I saw a guy in a brown suit and gold tie and cream shirt at the fashion show, and it looked really nice.
Good Luck

Put them in either a cream suit/tux or you can go dark, DARK, brown. If you're going tux, have the groomsmen wear a vest the color of the girl's dresses or the color of the grooms suit. I think this would be beautiful. Best wishes.

I think your idea sounds really nice.
You and your groom will stand out no matter what colours you wear! Everyone will be looking at you and not your ushers, so don't worry.
Congratulations and Good Luck.
