The color scheme for our wedding is that the bridesmaids and groomsmen will alternate accent colors. ie: the dresses and tuxs are black but the sashes and vests will alternate pink and yellow between the bridesmaids and groomsmen. But the groomsmen will not wear a pink vest!!! They all refuse! I've already tried to change it between groomsmen to make them happy but they're still complaining. Has anyone had this problem before?? I've seen a lot of wedding where the guys wear pink so how were you able to accomplish it without hearing the men complain 24/7 about having to wear pink?

    My FH nixed pink and purple from the get-go. I didn't even get as far as asking anyone to wear it. He also nixed a black and white wedding and I nixed red (which we ended up going with, blah.) Theme changed though tough to have a christmas themed wedding without red.

    Originally my colors were pink and green but the guys would have all worn a pewter vest... not because I wouldn't ask but because I liked the vest. Personally I think they should just wear it.. it really isn't that bad and wearing pink doesn't make you any less a man , if your secure in your manhood then a color can't take that away from you.. but it does seem like you are in for a fight if you want to push it to avoid argument, I'd go with something neutral.
