  I'm in a similar boat as a couple of PP, our dads wanted to coordinate with the GM (we only had one) so we bought camp shirts that matched for all three of the men.  Moms chose their own outfits and I got them corsages that matched our colors.
  
  Because we had such a small wedding I think the pictures look really cool.  Neither mom was matchy matchy with their husbands but everyone still looked terrific!
  
  ETA: @lolo883 Yea they sell XXL ties!  H is in big and tall sizes and Mens Warehouse charges like $50/per tie its ridiculous! 
  

  That was exactly why we used them! FI and 3 of his groomsmen are all around 6'4" while the other 2 are average height. Was really glad to find the same tie in both lengths for reasonable prices!

  
  

  My dad originally wanted to wear a tux "befitting the escort of a princess" (he cracks me up) so we got him a matching pocket square. Now he's thinking he might get a grey suit similar to what the guys are wearing. I told him it was absolutely his decision. If he wants a tie to match them, I'll buy it for him. If he wants to wear something else, go for it.
