Tuxedo Question

So, I got my wedding dress and my bridesmaid dresses at Alfred Angelo under the assumption that Jos A. Banks color matched Alfred Angelo.
This is my dress:

And this is my bridesmaid dresses:

and they will be wearing Marine Blue.
So my problem is that my fiance and myself have gone to Jos. A. Bank and they do not have a color that even comes close to matching Marine blue.  So now I dont know what to do, I am trying to not freak out, but Mens wearhouse doesn't match them either.  There is one other tux shop in our area and we have looked there but again, no color match...I dont know if I should go with a different color completely or what.

Suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Re: Tuxedo Question

  • What are your accent colors? Can the guys wear one of those? 

    I also like PPs suggestions of black or ivory. And I think silver would look good as well.

  • We had the same problem with our tuxedos so we found a color to complement the bridesmaid dresses instead of match them perfectly.  Do they have any other colors that would complement the marine blue nicely?  Our bridesmaid dresses are a brighter green which men's wearhouse didn't have so we picked out a darker green for the vests and ties which looked really nice with the bright green.
  • I was thinking about doing the Ivory or the black.  My accent color is light pink, almost like a peony pink color, the girls will be carrying pink flowers.  We are also still trying to decide if my fiance is going to be wearing his dress blues for the Air Force or just a Tux.  Thank you for the wonderful ideas, we are hopefully going to go today and look at different color options....that is if i can pull him away from Modern Warfare 3....Thanks again!!!!
  • Do you have an accent color that they could wear?  For example my colors are lavender and silver, so if it came down it it the guys could wear silver if needed.
