Girls with brown bm dresses...tux question

What color did your groomsmen wear for vests? Does a brown vest go with a black tuxedo. If possible, please post pictures. My accent color is burnt orange and we haven't found a vest in orange that isn't hideous. Thanks in advance.

Re: Girls with brown bm dresses...tux question

We did black tuxes with black vests. The groomsmen will be wearing patterned ties that are brown on black. Mike from Esquire put it all together for us and it looks amazing. What about doing that and then if you want to throw in burnt orange, use handkerchiefs in the pockets or the butionneres. Sorry I don't have pictures.

Thanks! I went to two tux shops in Queens and I dont think they had a clue how to match anything. Maybe I'll go to Esquire.

Re: Girls with brown bm dresses...tux question

Ok..you def should go to Esquire. I was in my cousin's wedding last October and they used Esquire. We wore brown gowns and the guys wore black tuxedos and had brown/light brown vests and ties. The guys looked OUTSTANDING!!! Check him out -- Mike will know what to do!

Re: Girls with brown bm dresses...tux question

Definitely go see Mike! We were completely clueless and I was struggling with black tuxes and brown dresses. What Mike put together for us is so sharp looking. FH and I never could have done it on our own!

Re: Girls with brown bm dresses...tux question

I was a bridesmaid in february where we wore dresses that were light brown with a dark brown sash. The groomsmen wore black tuxes with a light brown vest and darker tie from mens wharehouse, and it looked really nice
