What colors should I pick for my bridemaids, groom, groomsmen?

Question

Im getting married in May and im trying to tie in my colors with what everybody will wear. My colors are Champagne, Cream, and Chocolate but Im thinking that I should add a color like pink for flowers.My wedding dress is going to be Champagne or Ivory and Champagne. I want to put my bridemaids in Chocolate but I think it might be too dark so I was also thinking about Latte.I dont know what color tux the Groom or the Groomsmen should where. Or should I put in another color besides pink, I need any ideas. I need all of the help that I can get.

Answer 1

I think with the colors you have chosen, a nicer color scheme for the flowers with be the added color of soft peachy salmon or tiffany blue goes great with brown and champagne, or yellow gold or russet. Pink will wash out in the bouquet I think...also I would add some kind of ivy greenery to the bouquet. Wrap each bouquet with creamy satin ribbon...If you do Latte for the bridesmaids (which I think is gorgeous) the groomsmen should be in deep chocolate brown tux's with satin lapels...Elegant color scheme especially with your color wedding dress. Good Luck and I think your wedding will be elegant and spectacular. I just love those colors.

Answer 2

I think if you like the cream, champagne and chocolate combo then stick with it. Your florist will probably add some other colors to the bouquets that wil lnto clash, but I don't see the need for you to add any other colors to the dresses or grooms men.

The groom should be in champagne since that is your dress color, so a black tux with a champagne tie and cumberbund or tie and vest will compliment your dress.

The groomsmen should be in black tuxs with chocolate vest etc. It will look fabulous, it is a very classy color combination. I think adding anything else will seem like you are trying to be trendy.

Good luck!

Congratulations to you. You must be very excited about planning your wedding! It's also a very harrying time for a bride. There's soo much to do. But I do have a few ideas for you. I hope they help.
Since your wedding is in May I would stay away from the chocolate, latte or cafe au lait. (Sorry, I just couldn't resist, LOL) I would pick a brighter color. Think of flowers. Whatever color you choose for your bridesmaids, the groomsmen's shirts can be the same color to match the dresses. Your maid of honor and the best man could wear a slightly darker color gown and shirt. The groom's shirt should match your gown. Or you could have a "rainbow" wedding where each of your bridesmaids wear a different Spring color. Please do NOT let your bridesmaids, or any other person, tell you they can't or won't wear whichever colors you choose. It is YOUR wedding. YOU have the last say.

Since May is Spring/Summer, green, light green or other type of shades of green will look good specially if the wedding is in the morning. To match with your wedding dress you can use the light green and add Ivory ribbons on the bridemaids. For the groomsmen you can use an outfit that have a design of ivory and green in the vest and tie. Good luckand Congrats!

Answer 5

I would put the girls in latte just because you can coordinate the guys vests and ties. Latte ties will look good with black tuxes whereas brown accessories will not. It's easier to get black tuxes than any other color so that's what I would choose. Pink flowers would look gorgeous with latte dresses. You could also have pink flowers in your bouquet which would really pop against ivory or champagne. Also a small pink boutonniere would look great on a black jacket.

Answer 6

Pastel colors....for flowers to the accent the wedding i'd pick a very light pink rose to give some color to the room, but it may also depend on the lighting.

Bridesmaids dresses should be a combination of the champangne and milk chocolate....it'll look good...pick different styles for people depending on their bodytype and what they are willing to wear.

But i'd prefer to wear chocolate in the fall and winter because it's such a rich and warm color.

Try canary yellow, or a pastel color...it'll make it light and soft.And brighten the room. Depending what you want though.

Answer 7

how about the bridesmaids in a moca colour with a chocolate belt and the groom a normal colour tux and a tie/bow tie the same colour as your dress and the groomsmen having a chocolate tie/bow tie and have a light pink flower and then the colours wont clash

Answer 8

Something I think would be kinda cool would be to have the bridesmaids in latte, have the groomsman and groom in dark brown tuxes, and totally use a light pink as an accent color. I think for spring that would be beautiful and you could use cherry blossoms as one of your accent flowers. Just a suggestion. Congrats!!!!

Answer 9

In keeping with the fine wedding tradition. The bridesmaids dresses should be the ugliest color you can find. And have a style that can only be put in the trash after the wedding.

Answer 10

If you're not wearing white, stay away from putting the men in white then. If you are wearing white, then go ahead and put the men in white... otherwise, stick to black. Chocolate and cream is fine... if you want a little color, perhaps try orange. Lillies can come in orange and could be used in the boquets. (Lillies typically are in season around May as well.)
