color of vests & ties for FH & GM

So i was thinking about having my FH in white vest and tie and all the GM in black vests, and black ties - I really dont know how I feel about doing green to match the dresses -
what are you ladies doing?

I'm doing the same...I think i'm going to have them add pink with the scarf in their pockets...other then that it's tough to match...black is classic. My guys are wearing bow ties though...I am a huge fan of that classic look

My FH is wearing all black with the exception of a white tie...and the GM are wearing all black with just a purple tie to match the dresses.

The guys are wearing black vests but with green ties and hankies in the pocket. FH thought the green vest would be too much

I'm planning on having FH in white (or ivory?) vest and all the GM in black, gray or silver vests, I didn't want too much color on them as far as matching the girls or anything.. I'll already have a lot of color on the girls...

Re: color of vests & ties for FH & GM

if you dont want to do all solid green you can always try a vest with a little bit of a green accent....or black or silver would also be nice.

FH and i are actually going to look at tuxes today. I have a feeling my BM dress swatch is going to be hard to match. so i may end up doing something similar.

Our girls dresses are aqua. FH is wearing an ivory patterned vest with solid ivory tie. The GM's are wearing a black patterned vest (same pattern as FH) and a solid aqua tie. This will incorporate the color of the girls dresses without being so overwhelming. HTH!!

My FH is wearing a black tie with a black vest and the groomsmen are wearing a dark silver/pewter colored tie and vest. (My girls are in black)

Re: color of vests & ties for FH & GM

I will be wearing white and my girls are most likely wearing brown. I think I will do FH in white vest and tie and the GM in black but it's not set in stone.

and the GM will wear black vest and I'm going to have them do a lilac tie to match the BM dresses

Re: color of vests & ties for FH & GM

FH and I liked the idea of black monochromatic for the GM. FH will be wearing a black shirt w/ champagne vest tie. Fathers will be wearing white shirts w/ black vests/ties.

Re: color of vests & ties for FH & GM

I am doing blue vests to match the inner layer of the BM dresses.. I love how it looks in pictures with the girls and guys inthe same colors!

Re: color of vests & ties for FH & GM

I think we're going to have the GM in black vests and ties and FH in white vest and tie.

Re: color of vests & ties for FH & GM

i think FH will wear a white shirt with an ivory vest and tie

groomsmen -eh not so sure yet - maybe just a black vest and tie, or maybe all black like in the picture posted above.....we alo figured that they can wear champagne vests to compliment the bridesmaids but FH and I don't usually like that look - too matchy matchy for us.....so we don't know yet!

Re: color of vests & ties for FH & GM

We are planning to go for tuxes today.
I wanted FH in a white vest and tie.
The BM in a champagne vest and tie and the GM in a Taupe vest and tie.
It will look similar to the BP dresses.

Re: color of vests & ties for FH & GM

FH matches me (ivory shirt vest and tie)...GM match brides maids in a green and black vest. It has a lot of black in so the green only sticks out a little
