Chocolate Brown Tuxedo

Brittany Allison

I was think about Fi wearing a dark brown tux becuase it will look awesome with a light gold/ivory gown.  Does anyone have any pics like this and what colors would look on the the groomsmen and bridesmaids?

Chocolate brown would definitely look good with gold and ivory. The GM would be in chocolate brown too? I think that's the best way to go.

You could put the girls in chocolate brown dresses (DB has truffle, latte which might look nice because it's a lighter shade of brown) which sashes that reflect one of your accent colors. I know DB has ivory sashes which would look awesome. I don't know if they have gold sashes but I am sure other bridal stores have them. I would definitely do sashes, though, to bring one of your secondary colors in and for a pop of color but that might be because I am partial to sashes. :-) You could alternate the sashes as well if you want - gold, ivory, gold, ivory. Or just do all in one color.

The GM's ties and vest could match the color of the sash the girls are wearing. If you do decide alternate the sash colors, you could alternate the GM's ties and vest to match the BM he is paired with. I think that could look awesome.

Another idea is to do champagne dresses, although I guess that could look funny with the color of ivory. Although maybe not, my friend is doing a champagne, ivory and pink colored wedding right now.

Here is a pic of bridesmaids in brown. http://www.adaytorememberca.com/blog/uploaded_images/0190__kelly-756817.jpg
