Finding a color match

Someone help me! Please!!
I picked my bridesmaids dresses the other day. Love the fit and absolutely love the color! But, I can not find a retailer that sells the matching vest/tie combo for my guys. We are going with a Sorella Vita dress for the girls in teal. I asked the bridal salon, but they only sell bridal/bridesmaid gowns. They couln't help. Does anyone know where I might be able to find something that would match that color for my guys?! I don't care if I have to purchase or rent, I just need to find what I'm looking for... Or a direction...

Thanks!!

  • Why dont you have the guys wear a different color? For instance, if your colors are teal and silver, have the girls in the teal dresses and the guys in silver vests. Thats what I did for my wedding and it turned out great!

    This is what we are doing. We got the BM dresses at DB and tuxes at President's Tuxedo and we coudn't find a plum that matched. So our guys will be in sage green.

  • Here is the designer web site:  <a href="http://sorellavita.com/index.php/" rel="nofollow">http://sorellavita.com/index.php/</a>  I don't see any indication that they make matching men's accessories.  :(

    It does look like you can order a swatch through your bridal salon.  Then you could take the swatch to tux places to search for a match or complimentary color.

    Good luck!

  • Thanks ladies for all the ideas! Our colors are teal and red, and ALL of our flowers are either red or white (because you can't really get teal flowers naturally). Plus the chapel pew cushions are red too. So I'm just trying to go with things that are teal now. Kinda shift away from the red. I have ordered a color swatch from the bridal salon. I guess my only other option is to take that with me and go check out the tux shops and do a color comparison.

    Thanks again!
  • Have you tried Peppe Ramundo and Sons? They have a lot of colors. We are going with them.
