Bridal Party Colors?? Help

Katlyn, on January 23, 2020 at 12:37 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 7

Our colors are burgundy, navy and champagne. FH wants to wear a burgundy velvet tux, which is fine by me (burgundy jacket, waistcoat, and trousers). I am torn what we should have the groomsmen and bridesmaids wear. I would like the girls to be in either burgundy or navy as they are more flattering colors. Should the guys wear navy suits or black? Is it ok that the bridesmaids and groom wear the same color, or is that faux pas? The guys could wear burgundy jackets and black pants, but would the girls then wear navy or burgundy? I am having trouble with the color combos so any thoughts are appreciated!!

    I would have the girls in burgundy and the guys in navy tuxes. Black tuxes with a navy color palette would clash.

    I personally am not a fan of the groom in a different suit then his groomsmen. My husband worn a different vest, tie and pocket square to stand out. I would have the guys in burgundy and the girls in either navy or burgundy. Here are some photos to give you an idea of what it would look like if they were in the same color.

    I thought about this combo, but I was worried it would be too much burgundy?

    Yeah I agree that the black/navy would not work

    It is a lot of burgundy. Another option would be to have all burgundy suits with navy ties and have the girls wear navy. I definitely wouldn't have the guys in any black as that would clash with the navy.

    Could it work if the groomsmen wear contrasting colors to the groom? So the groom in all burgundy with a black tie, and the groomsmen in black with burgundy tie? Is it not ok to have the groom and bridesmaids in the same color?

    We're getting married on the 4th of July so we're doing Burgundy, Navy, and Cream (Red, white and blue). The guys are wearing navy suits with burgundy ties and the women are wearing burgundy dresses. Groom will match the groomsmen, but we've thrown around the idea of having the groomsmen and best man wear bow ties instead
