We have silver bridesmaid dresses, and the men's suits are grey, our flowers...

We have silver bridesmaid dresses, and the men's suits are grey, our flowers are going to be lilac. I am unsure what colour cravats to choose - lilac to match the flowers or silver to match the dresses??

Hi I would go for lilac I think it would be more effective, silver could make it a bit wishy washy goog luck :)

I would put the ushers in lilac and the groom in silver so he stands out, or visa versa

Very similar to our colours. Definitely lilac as silver may look washed out against the grey if it's not a darker grey

Silver for the groom and lilac for the groomsmen?
We did this, my husband had ivory and his groomsmen and my dad had dark purple

I'd go for lilac as silver might wash them out completely,
