Thing as too much blue??

SO...I'm very torn on our color's for the wedding and need help!

Initially we wanted to have shades of blue for my bridal party members and the groomsmen wear navy suits. I took our fabric samples to Men's Wearhouse and the colors they offered didn't look good with our color samples and I was also concerned it was too much blue.

Initial Color's

Thing as too much blue?? 1

Maid of Honor in Marine, BM's in alternating Steel Blue and Fog and JBM in Quartz.

Then when we saw the blue fabric swatches with the Men's Warehouse options I decided to go with a rosier color palate, but I did not really want to do these colors as (no offense) EVERYONE does this color palate.

New Color's

Thing as too much blue?? 2

MOH in wine, BM's in Chianti and JBM in Quartz.

We just found a bridal boutique who works with a different nationwide chain suit retailer who offers more color options than Men's Warehouse. Now I'm torn...I LOVE the blue's and think it would be so different and beautiful but is there such a thing as too much blue? My FH wants to wear either Navy or Charcoal...could we truly pull off the blue bridal party dresses with Navy suits or if he chooses Navy am I stuck with the rosy color palate?

I think either palette for the women will work and will look nice.

I think with navy suits you may want to mix up the MOH dress color, or it may blend in with the suits. What are your other wedding colors? Like what color bouquets are you thinking? You might be able to add some contrast or dimension there. If you’ve hired a florist with a good eye, you might want to ask the florist for some ideas on how to make either work. That might help you decide.

This is what my bridesmaids are wearing. I definitely approve of the pink pallet. I think either would look great. My men will be wearing grey suits with navy ties.

Follow your heart. I don’t think you can go wrong with either pallet. Both are beautiful.

I don't think there's too much blue! Then again, I love blue, but I truly think your original palette looks great!

I love the more rosier palette with the idea of blue suits for men

I’m doing shades of blue for my bridal party and my fiancé wants to wear grey so al the groomsmen will also wear grey with coordinating blue accessories to the girl they’re walking with.
I like the blues for sure but with the groomsmen wearing blue it might be too much. Also that first Vera wang bridesmaid dress I wore as a bridesmaid and it was gorgeous! Awesome choice!
The shades of blush for the bridesmaids would look gorgeous with the guys in blue suits. But it’s your wedding, if you want all blue do it! I’d be careful with the colors being close but not a perfect match though. Either match the guys to the girls exactly or have a big contrast otherwise it might look slightly off. Does Vera wang make the matching accessories for the guys? Then the colors would be perfect!
