Black Shirt/Black Tux- colored vest or just tie and what about Dads?

Hi,

So I searched the boards over the black shirt/black tux debate and FI and I love the look so first if anyone has pictures as to what they did with the vests I would love to see them as they are hard to find!

We can't decide if we should do a colored vest for the guys (a coral/orange color- not orange like halloween though) or if we should do black vest and just the colored tie.  The only girl is in a long black dress with a sash in the same sort of color. FI will be in a black tux/shirt and ivory vest and tie (different pattern than the guys even if they go with colors) because he wants to stand out.

Second question- if the guys are in all black and we were going to have the dads in black vests do we keep the dads in all balck as well and just have them in an ivory tie?  Or do the dads go in an ivory shirt with black vest/tie?

We definitely like the look of black now we are just trying to determine how best to pair it with the colors/people.  The lady at Men's wearhouse brought up a point that sometimes with different colored shirts and vests it almost looks like either the groom or the groomsmen don't belong at the same wedding because it is just too different.

For those of you that did the balck was everyone in black shirts?  Did you do the colored vest or just the colored tie and black vest?  Any pics?

Thank you so much!
