Tuxedos - vest and tie colors

Brianna, on October 31, 2021 at 11:44 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 5
Fellow brides, I’m all about matching and the visual aesthetic of matching colors in pictures.


The bridesmaids are wearing spa blue and I was able to get matching vest and ties for the groomsmen… life is great.
Now my questions becomes what color vest and tie should my dad wear (not matching mom, they are divorce)? He picked the same as my uncle but I don’t want them to wear the same, my uncle is head of house old and it’s important he stands out. I don’t want my dad wearing grey/ silver either incase my fiancé chooses grey.
Does it really matter at the end? Is there color protocol? I have so many questions because we are the first to get married on both sides 😞

    I think he could still coordinate with your mom as they’re both still your parents and it could be a way for them to stand out. My dad was in silver but my husband did a white jacket with a black vest.
    I don’t know what your other colors are he could wear one of those or do a navy to compliment the lighter blue.

    Many users here say that the parents can choose whatever they want, as long as it fits the formality of the event. But if your dad is stuck and asking for ideas, I like articles such as this which give suggestions on how to coordinate: https://www.brides.com/story/should-father-of-bride-match-groomsmen
