Help me accessorize?

Hi ladies!

Somehow, I walked into David's Bridal twice with one thing in mind, and ended up falling in love with something completely different - first with my dress, and again with the BM dresses. I brought one bridesmaid with me to try some stuff on, and this dress blew us away:

I brought the rest of the girls to try it on (total of six girls, sizes range from 0 - 24) and it complemented every single one of them. We debated, and decided that Truffle looked best on everyone (with the MOH in Champagne). Our color palate is going to be dark browns, light golden colors, and either Clover or earthy green.

My only problem is that the guys will be in brown suits, and I really don't want a wall of brown. The girls and I have been debating on how to 'brighten' the dresses. We considered a mesh sash of either clover or champagne, but the waist of the dress is pleated so I'm not sure how that will work. We also considered jeweled headpieces and brooches, but I worry that won't be enough.

Any suggestions?

tl;dr - My girls look great in brown dresses, but the guys will be in brown tuxes, and I worry about having a wall of brown.
