I've had this idea ever since the conception of the wedding, but of course it's being met with some opposition.. I can't tell if my idea is really that off-track or if it's just the future mother-in-law being short sighted...
I'm staying away from the more traditional wedding, like for instance we aren't drowning everything in "our" colors (which are navy and yellow).
WIth that, my dress is very formal; almost a champagne-y color with a black sash around the middle. Before I even got it, I knew I wanted the bridesmaids in these blue seersucker dresses by THREAD. Our ceremony is outside at 5pm in Florida, so it'll be warmer. The groomsmen will most likely be wearing the same color/pattern seersucker suits and yellow bow ties. My fiance and I would like him to wear a fitted black, traditional suit: we both think we'd compliment each other well and like the idea of us being a little more dressy and the BP being beachy. I've only seen this once before but it looked so classy and amazing, I knew I had to do it...
Is this really going to look that strange, as a few people have suggested?? I know msot of the time the groom almost looks identical to the groomsmen, save for a different tie or something, but with the formality of my dress I didn't want to be the odd-one out..
Thoughts?? I'm so torn!
