Early on, I told my FI how lovely charcoal colored tuxes are. He pretty much said, "HECK NO, I'M WEARING ALL BLACK" immediately. I dropped it, figuring it's his day too and black is so classic! This was all when I thought I was going to do a dark plum color for my BM dresses.
Last week, I went BM dress shopping and fell in love with "mercury" and "pewter" colors at David's Bridal. That night, I told my fiancé how much I liked those colors more than the purple. He thought it was great. We went to the mall later and he wanted to stop into Savi Formalwear and told me to look at a tux he liked. Guess what? It was CHARCOAL! I asked him why he changed his mind and he said he had no idea how great the charcoal color looked in person. Now I feel like I need to go back to purple so there's a contrast. Having either mercury or pewter BM dresses and a charcoal tux will be too close in color, right? Or am I over thinking this?
