Groomsmen's attire???

So My colors for my wedding is yellow and white to follow my daisy theme. Here is my dilema...my grandmother said that if the guys wear black that in my pictures we will look like bumble bees. Now that i am thinking about it, i think she may be right.

My FH refuses to wear white,(which I dont want either)Then I was thinking tan suits (kinda like a golden color) and ALMOST everyone thinks that it would be nice beings it is a summer day wedding;including Fh and other groomsmen.

On the other hand,FMIL isn't to fond of this...she wants her son to wear a tux. Opinions please...do you think it is stupid for all the guys to wear suits?

Sorry this was soo long!!

As long as you pick a yellow that isnt GOLDEN and BRIGHT they will not look like bees! Someone wore yellow to my senior prom and they looked very nice

Re: Groomsmen's attire???

I agree, a butter yellow won't like like bees...maybe if you add some brightly colored flowers it will break up the colors a little more. I think the tan suits are a nice idea, but it depends on the style of your wedding...good luck!

Snatch up FH and go to a tux place and put one on him-that will help you decide if you even like it

A pale yellow with black tuxes they will not look like bumblebees and your girls can hold different shades of yellow and another color for Boks

I agree. Try to find the palest yellow you can and it should be fine.
