Tux color help!!!!! Please!

spechtholdn

I want to use a color palet inspired by a peacock feather. Chocolate, gold, green, and blue. What color tuxes would you use with this? I am thinking the bridesmaids dresses would be the pretty blue color of a peacock, I found invitations that are a beautiful chocolate brown and gold, wtih green highlights. I think black tuxes would just look funny. What would you use?

Maybe a dark grey?

Maybe something like this:

Or even a khaki:

Personally, I'd stick with black--it's classic, and peacock feathers do contain black!

I love the khaki suit. I am worried about the black just because everything else I have found that I really like all contain browns and golds as undertones. I realize they are nuetrals, I just think it looks kinda funny next to the black. I guess everything else has a somewhat romantic glow to it and the black is looking really harsh. Ill have to check into those khaki suits, and also look around for a chocolate brown.

It's really your fellow's decision, and I highly doubt he'd be happy in a full tux that wasn't a traditional tux color. I highly approve of unusual menswear, but not without his approval. Peacock colors are extremely popular this year, so image search weddings with them, here, offbeat bride tribe, weddingbee, just plain old Google, and see what those lads are wearing. My bet is most wear black suits but a beautiful vest, which is great because the jackets usually come off.

I saw my friend's dad's 70's blue tuxes and LOLed.

My FI and GMs are wearing a dark dark brown tux.  It's from Skeffingtons but I don't think it's on their website.  It's Calvin Klein though.

FSIL actually used the same one:

i totally recommend the khaki suits, my fiance loves it.  they match with anything, and you can really play around with the colors you want to accent it with... here's a pic of his to give you an idea..
