OK I got stumped..we are trying to choose our wedding attire. My bridesmaids and I love the dresses in chocolate. What colors in groomsmen suits would coordinate with this choice?? Would black be dark? I thought of a lighter color and got nowhere!
Sometimes I can think really good when finding ideas for others...but when planning for my own I get really confused.
So far my color scheme is **brown silver and ivory** <~ can change if nessary. I have left enough color opportunity to choose flowers and decorations when ready (just to be one the safe side)! This will be a fall or winter wedding, I'm leaning towards winter 2005. I need all the time and help I can get!
Thanks,
Brandi

Balck tuxedos are a classic.
Why not have black tuxedos with ivory shirts.

The colors sound beautiful for a winter wedding.

I was just really concerned it would be to dark and dreary ... but the ivory shirts I hadn't thought of ... yeah that would make it lighten up a bit! For some reason I had in my head the image of all black <~~I don't know why! lol! Whew!
I'm so excited we get to keep the chocolate!
Thanks

You may also want to think of ivory suits or a black tux with white or ivory shirt and silver vest/tie... or a combination of those.
