My BM are wearing cranberry colored dresses. My fiance wants his GM to wear a burnt orange color (Ties). My BM will have a fall bouquets (oranges, reds, yellows). I was thinking for the GM to wear a burnt orange color ties but i am not sure what color vest to put them in, nor am I totally sure if that would even look nice. Is that to many colors in my wedding? Cranberry dresses, burnt orange ties, & a vest with an undecided color?

    I think it sounds nice. What color is your dress? An ivory vest would look nice with those colors.

    I wouldn't do a vest at all, personally. I think your plan/color scheme sounds nice sans vest.

    If you do vest, make it the color of the suit/tux they're wearing. Color combo sounds nice.

    Definitely not too many colors.  When I worked in a florist that color combo was very big a few years ago and I always loved it so I am glad to see it being used again.

    I think a black vest would be very nice.

    I agree with PPs. I would do either no vest, black vest, white vest or the same color as the ties. Although to me, that looks a little prom-ish, but it wouldn't be "too much" by any means.

    I love the color combo! :)

    In reading this, it sounds like he might only be wearing a vest and no jacket. OP, is that the deal? If so, I think a medium or dark gray would look great. 

    And that color combo sounds awesome!

    He wants a jacket for sure. I tried to push for no jacket and only vests, but he didn't like that. Black suits, I will run it by him about the vest color or no vest at all. Thank you to all with your opinions, it really helped. I was so uneasy about the cranberry dresses without matching ties but I feel a lot better now about it.

    Dark gray would be lovely too. Your color scheme sounds beautiful.

    Either in the burnt orange, cranberry, or the color of the tux.
