Coral and Gray

Our wedding colors are coral/salmon and gray.  The bridesmaids' dresses are these  http://www.davidsbridal.com/Product_Bobbin-Net-Dress-with-Illusion-Neckline-VW360037 (in charcoal gray with black sash) and the guys will be wearing black tuxes.  I want the flowers to be bright shades of coral, probably with some pink mixed in, but their bouquets are the first things that will actually be that color.  Do you think it would look good to have the groomsmen's vests be coral, even though the bridesmaids are not wearing that color?  Thank you!

Re: Coral and Gray

  • That is a really beautiful color combo. It's kind of hard to know without seeing the actual shade of gray tuxedo, but I also agree with PP in having perhaps only the tie as coral. If the coral is more muted, then I'd go with vest/tie coral. If it's brighter, then I think only the tie is good enough.
  • I would leave the vest a neutral, but I also think that coloured vests scream prom to me.  That bridemaid dress is very classy and sophisticated.  I'd stay the same with the guy's' attire.  A pop of colour in the tie would be okay, but also a bright pocket square or bout would do the same for the men as it is doing for the girls.

    <div>I agree with this. Colored vests are more prom-ish to me and I think neutral colored attire with pops of color would be nice. =)</div>
  • Thank you all for your input!  I like the idea of gray vests with coral ties.  Now to find a photo of that...
