Different shades

Hey y’all! K so I’m kind of freaking out. My my colors have burgundy and rose gold but we’re going to focus on the burgundy. So we all know burgundy and maroon are similar in color and sometimes people get the two mixed up. So my bridesmaids ordered their dresses in “burgundy” and my groomsmen and groom stuff is “burgundy” but they’re not the same burgundy. My girls dresses are a bit bright and the men’s are a bit dark. Do y’all think it’ll be completely tacky or do you think it’ll get by? He suggested the men change to rose gold ties but I really don’t like that. Opinions please!! (And no we didn’t take samples because my girls dresses were ordered online)

    I think it's ok if the shades are slightly different

    I think it will look fine as well. If it's that much a color difference, you can always embrace it and pick different shades of burgundy for other pieces of your wedding.

    At least it sounds like they're consistent among the men and women and not within the groups! It would probably be fine!

    Hmm... it’s like you have an ombré palette going which is cool. I would include a few shades of red into your bouquets to make it look intentional. And in the floral centerpieces if you have flowers. Different shades of one color looks very modern and sophisticated.

    Honestly it's okay, it would be near impossible to get exact color matches, and in the photos it'll probably blur our and look the same
