    spamming a bit on here past few days,

    i really want my colour theme to be taupe and ivory with maybe a splash of pink to break it up. im really struggling with what colour suit would go with this, theres loads of pics of brides with the bridesmaids in taupe but none of them stood near to any grooms or other bridal party members.

    Lee really suits grey, do you think grey would go okay with taupe or are they too samey?

    he wants grey too, he really suits it, just dont want it clashing, i would rather change my colours than him wear black, he doesnt suit it haha

    now im on a mission to find more taupe its a nightmare to get to colour match theres so many shades of it! x x

    Think he's going to go for grey as well... im not so keen on the standard black suits. but at the end of the day tis down to my OH & thats for the new year to stress over!!
    but yes, totally agree that no matter what colour theres always something where you cant find the right shade!! x

    I like a grey suit too... am pretty sure you get get taupe suits too though - well Marks do them.. look out for their suit event in the New Year probably.. H2B is probably wearing Navy - got a lovely suit in their last suit event - 25% off and then, 'cos daughter works for them, another 20% off that. Bargain :). they do really nice slim fit suits

    I think grey as well. I think black or charcoal would be too dark for your colour scheme. We originally were going to go for grey but googled the colour tie we were having and it looked nice with the charcoal and when tried on in the shop it looked better as well, but we also had a darker colour scheme.

    Yeh I keep thinking that too... I think we're decided on centrepieces...the day we got engaged we went to a cocktail bar in New York and had cosmopolitans so we want the large martini glass tall centrepieces...to incorporate the engagement into the wedding,we're just not sure what to have in them...I know I want pearls draped round the open bit at the top and want to incorporate buttons lace and flowers but not sure how yet x

    that sounds lovely. so far ive really fallen for candelabras with a flower arangement in the middle, but lots of people are having them. then i liked tall cream vases with babysbreath in them. looks really classy x

    Dark blue is also appropriate, I think. This is a color matches all other colors.
