How did everyone decide their wedding color combinations for what everyone should wear?? Our colors are navy , gold and deep red. My wedding dress is gold and my FH will be wearing like a cream/ivory color with accented gold. What should everyone else wears as far as bridesmaids , groomsmen & MOH and best man? We’re having a hard time decide. I would like my bridesmaids to wear red while my MOH wears navy and his groomsmen wear navy and Best man In ivory/cream like him but he doesn’t think that will look good. I don’t want anyone else wearing gold besides his accented gold so that I/we can stand out. Any other color combination suggestions? Open to all!

    Yes probably more similar to this! if I don’t do the same color for every bridesmaid. But his suit would probably Be more of a creamish beige to match better with mine. Thank you so much for using this as a visual for me. It definitely helps. Just hoping it’s not going to be too many colors

    I do think that is a lot of colors, but if you and your fiance like it that's all that matters. My

    Sorry that I couldn't make it more cream and still have it show up on the white background as well... If you want other combinations, please ask. I'm happy to help. Smiley smile

    I sent the wrong message to the wrong person. That quoted message was suppose to be for you , but the visuals really helped! Thank you! I’m going to think about it more & talk to him and see what we can decide.

    So we decided on black suits for all groomsmen and navy dresses on bridesmaids! Still deciding on bouquet ideas & boutonnières/pocket squares but we decided to make navy more dominant and have the red (or crimson as he calls it lol) be more of an accent color in flowers since we wouldn’t really use the red in anything else.

    My preference is tan for all. The ivory tux will be hard to find. The gray looks like too many colors trying to be the same color. The black feels incredibly formal - but most important very hot in Florida in the afternoon. Ultimately, the choice is yours and FH - and no one else's - so you do you! Smiley heart
