is it ok if a guest

Original post by SparklingBride10

wears a color similar to what the bridesmaids will be wearing? My bridesmaids are wearing mocha, and the best man wants to bring a date and she asked what color should she wear b/c she wants to match him... The tuxs are black and the vest and tie are mocha..

TIA

As long as she doesn't wear white I wouldn't sweat it.

I wouldnt sweat it- she is probably trying to match so she doesnt look like a doofus when standing with him for pictures and whatnot- there all dressed it might be your wedding but there going to be taking nice pics of themselves too. Mr.Devine and I usually match not because we try it just happens that way except for sis wedding where I was Moh we purposely bought his suit to match somewhat my dress. JMO I wouldnt be pissed if someone came to my wedding wearing black or purple even when they know it might be the colors-

Some things are just out of your control as a bride and this is one of them. I would say don't worry about it!!!

I did that by accident not only was is the same color but my dress was the same style as the BM's just theirs were gowns...I felt like a butt lol (it was Christmas time so I wanted to wear a Red dress)

who cares?? as long as its not the exact same dress as BM dresses or white it shouldnt matter IMO.

I think its totally fine and I can see where she's coming from, cuz I always like to match too. If it bothers u though, as if she can wear a color that compliments mocha, like tan or another shade of brown, or black to match the tuxes.
Plus, mocha/brown is a common and popular color, so a reg guest may not know and may also be wearing that color.

i mean you can't prevent people from showing up in teh same colors as your BM. My BM are in a chocolate brown color, its very likely some guests will be wearing that color dress as well.

I think it's totally fine. ITA as long as she doesn't wear white then its not a problem.

when FH was in a bridal party last summer i asked what color the BP was wearing so i could match him... i wouldnt get the same color b.c i didnt want to match the BPs color. They were in purple so i wore chocolate brown... it matched but i didnt look like i was part of the party...
