Bride and Groom in white?? Thoughts?

Jessica, on June 23, 2011 at 12:21 AM Posted in Style and Décor 0 22

I want to do a black and white wedding with red flowers and other red accents...but my FH really wants to wear a white tux...so us in white with the groomsmen and bridesmaids in black...What do you all think?? Would it look weird?

    I am doing the exact same thing. Me and him will be the only ones wearing white! The Groomsmen are wearing Grey Tuxs

    I've seen it done, if it's what you want go for it! It's not for me as I think the groom in white seems a bit dated..but like I said I've seen pics where they pulled it off okay.

    I think it can work. Just make sure he's really careful and doesn't get his tux dirty. I think black, white and red is really pretty.

    My FH and I are both in white. As well as the GM. I think it will look fine.

    Personally, I think white tuxes and super unattractive- but that's me taste. If that's what you two like- that's your choice.

    Im with Meghan on this one...FH's brother wore a white tux at their wedding and they blended together...poorly. Especially in pictures, neither one ended up standing out

    We're doing the exact same thing except his suit will be ivory since my dress is ivory and red, I didn't want him blending him with the guys, I want him to stand out just like I will. I've seen it done at 3 weddings so far, it was very sexy and my Baby looks very SUPER ATTRACTIVE IN white or ivory, he looks super in anything.

    My FH wants to wear white as well. At first I wanted to be the ONLY one in white but then I thought about the fact that it's his day too so he should have something that he really wants.

    I think it would look good. My only fear would be him getting dirty!!

    We're having all the guys in tuxes, but the groomsmen will have red vests & ties, while he will have ivory. Just another idea Smiley smile

    FW and I will be in white and everyone else will be in color! We will have some accents of the color but not much!

    I would have FH try on a whote/ivory tux first. Guys in white tuxes are not my thing. But if you feel it works, then go for it.

    I think it would look great. DH and I both wore ivory and the groomsmen were in black. I love the pictures taken by the guest and can't wait to see the professionals pictures, everyone looked great.

    Thanks everyone! I agree with you all...I wasn't really a fan of the idea but my FH really wants to wear white and I just want him to be happy too since after all it's his day too, not just mine! Smiley smile Thanks for the pics and advice, it's much appreciated!
