What suits for guys would look best with gray bridesmaid dresses?

So, my bridesmaid dresses are a medium gray color and I am really struggling to decide what to out the guys in. The wedding is outdoors and I don't think black will go. What are thoughts on other color choices? Also, any good ideas to find reasonable priced suits in the cities? Thanks in advance for any help! :)

    Black sounds good! I recommend Mens Warehouse where there are sales going on.

    We had our guys buy a black suit to wear instead of having them rent suits or tuxes.  Most of the guys were able to find suits for under $150 (which is about what it would cost to rent one...and then they can keep the suit)  There are decent deals at JCPenney and Kohls rather frequently - which is where most of the guys ended up getting theirs. 

    As far as colors, do you not want to go with black suits?  I can't think of other colors that would go with gray.... unless you were able to find a gray suit that actually matches the dresses?

    What about a light tan?

    Grey suits would work but you'd have to be careful. You'd either have to match it well or get them lighter or darker. Navy and grey would look really nice together. But I also don't think black would look bad. I guess I'd have to see the shade of grey to tell for sure.

    My pal had BMs in cool grey, dudes were in a different grey, but still a cool grey, and the groom was in almost a charcoal. Looked super sharp!

    I think either black or gray would be fine. I would not do tan -- it very rarely looks good with gray. K&G has nice, pretty inexpensive suits.

    I think another shade of gray would look the best for a summer wedding.  Good luck!

    I just had my wedding with grey BM dresses and the guys had black tuxes. They looked just fine together.

    I am also having medium gray BM dresses and I am doing a dark gray tux from Saviv Formal Wear (the tux is called Kingston). I personally really like the monochromatic look.  We got a deal on pricing at a wedding show but their prices seemed reasonable.  Good luck!
