    Hi,

    I'm hoping someone might be able to give some ideas,

    I'm getting married July 2016, I already have my dress, after 4 hours in 1 shop I found 'the one'. its the mori lee 2715 in light gold.
    We did originally want baby blue colour, until I got the dress and didn't think it would go. someone suggested lilac and I've seen pictures that seem to work well.

    But I don't know what colour suits the men should have, and flowers I originally wanted roses and calla lilies but don't think white would go.

    the only colour that keeps popping up is blush and I'm not keen.

    thanks for reading this long post

    What about grey or black suits with the tie/buttonhole being the colour. Cream and gold could be nice. Try having a look about on line some places do colour swatches could give u an idea of what colours you like. Also do you and your OH have a colour that you both love or means something to you that could be nice as well.

    suits go with most colours so I wouldn't worry to much, you could have cream and gold waistcoat/tie or cravat. Lilac flowers and bridesmaid dresses would work well with this, I also think the baby blue or a royal blue looks nice (look on go0gl3) if not you would have to go with a deeper colour like red or black.

    Dark grey suits with cream flowers will go lovely.

    I always think black suits go with any colour but like it when other colours are incorporated in to the waistcoats. lilac would look lovely with gold. your hubby could have a gold waistcoat/cravat and groomsmen lilac and bridesmaids lilac dresses x

    Thank you for all your replies, we decided on charcoal grey suits waistcoat has lilac on, and flowers are a champagne colour with a bit of lilac, matched great with the colour swatch of the dress. Everything is slowly coming together x

    Sounds lovely :) We are thinking to get married march 2017. For our wedding my husband wants something untraditional like colors and everything. He doesn't want black suit and white dress for me. So we are thinking our wedding colors to be gray with pink. And now we are looking for that kind ideas.
