I need help! What color suits for bright yellow bridesmaid dresses?

JennSchurr1205

Ok so my fiance is wearing a blue military suit and my bridesmaid dresses are bright yellow. He is insisting his guys wear black suits. I would prefer the guys in suits, I really didn't want to do tuxes. Too formal. How will this look? Anyone have pictures? thoughts?

I love the look of yellow with grey suits. I also love the idea of matching the groom with navy.  I'm not wild about the idea of black; it seems bumblebee-ish alongside the girls and like it might clash with the dress blues for H.

We're doing bright yellow bm dresses too! I think we're going with gray suits, but I've seen pictures with tan suits for a more casual look, which may match your grooms blue suit better too!

I like grey suits with yellow.  You can do fun ties with that too, orange or yellow or some other accent colour.

Personally I'm not a fan of navy suits (but that's just me), I think the grey suits on the GMs would coordinate with your FI's navy just fine.

You could even do just vests if you want, it's more casual though.

In my opinion, medium grey (like this:  http://www.indochino.com/product/The-Essential-Gray-Suit) would "suit" your color scheme well!

Black is much too somber of a color to wear for a wedding. If your GMs are buying their suits, they'll be much better off with grey than any other color, really.

Also, I'd recommend against a vest+trousers combination, as that really says "incomplete" more than it does "relaxed." When I see a guy wearing that combination, I think, "Where'd he leave his jacket?"

I think gray suits would be best!

Another vote for Grey!

His navy suit next to black will look really bad.

Yellow next to black is too harsh of a contrast as well - grey will soften it up.
