Gray or Black?

I have always imagined the groomsmen wearing black suits and have never been a fan of gray or khaki groomsmen attire. However, our colors are light pink, gray, and pops of brighter pink. I am not sure what shade the girl's dresses will be yet but they will definitely be pink. The flowers are all pink as well (all one shade). Originally we were going to do black suits with gray vest and tie and a pink bout (instead of black suit with pink vest and tie). Now I am wondering if this will look out of place because black will not be seen anywhere else at our wedding. The gray is kind of starting to grow on me. I do not want anything about my wedding to be vintage since that is not us at all so if we choose gray I need it to look modern. What do you guys think? Black or gray suits?

I would say do gray, my men are in a classic yet very modern attire it was awesome with pink. Here is a pic of my groomsmen in their pink and gray.

Keep in mind that these were not bought off the rack this attire was custom/tailormaid fo each individial, you can also look into that sometimes that is a better choice.

I love gray suits. Black is really nice but also really formal. I'd say google search some suits and see if you like the general feel. I found a couple blog sites - this one having a bit more of a country/vintage feel -

And here's one that's a bit more formal -
