Groomsmen Attire -- Opinions Needed

Chantal, on February 24, 2020 at 7:38 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 5

Happy Monday, everyone!

My fiance just went to Mens Warehouse to pick up his tailored suit--we are really happy with it. It's a medium gray that looks very excellent on him, so we were willing to splurge on buying. Based on their online prices, I figured we would buy the pants for the groomsmen at MW to make sure the colors matched, and then we would have them wear burgundy vests (the bridesmaids are wearing burgundy). Our colors are burgundy, forest/rustic green, and white. No one is explicitly wearing forest green, it's more included in our location (Christmas tree farm) and the abundant greenery in the decor.

Here is the issue -- the quote he got for the pants was a lot more than we thought it would be. Now I'm trying to figure out if there's a way the groomsmen can be wearing a different color pant, since it's been impossible to find pants that match the gray that we found at MW (other than buying them at the source). I don't think black would look nice, but I don't have a lot of experience with this, so maybe I'm wrong? I was also considering having them wear the rustic-y brown color of pant and then figure out the vest and tie color from there.

Just not sure what to do with colors... gray is tricky. Any help is welcome and appreciated!

    You can always have the guys still wear gray but make it a darker charcoal gray to not match the groom. Same color different shade is always complimentary!

    I agree with PP. Darker shade is a good option.
