wedding wednesday: bridesmaids and groomsmen

Good morning to ya!  Sorry this Wedding Wednesday post is coming at you so late, I've been fighting a cold and it looks like the cold has one up on me at the moment.  Thank goodness I'm not at the elementary school yet and I can rest today!  

Today, I wanted to share with you guys what my girls will be wearing on our big day and see what you think about my groomsmen ideas.  Way before we ever got engaged, I already had a good idea about how I wanted the bridal party to look.  We're a fairly simple couple, so I've never pictured the guys in fancy tuxedos or the girls in the "standard" bridesmaid dress.  I knew I wanted everything to be more on the casual and relaxed side, so I decided from the get go that I didn't want my girls to shell out $150+ on a dress.... that they would never wear again.  At first, I thought it would be easy for each girl just to pick a dress in the same color family, but that process ended up not being for us.  It stressed all of us out, so we eventually decided on the same dress for all three girls.  The dress is the perfect color, the perfect length, the perfect style for our wedding day, AND they will wear it again!  Cheers all around!

The dusty pink color shown in the picture looks just the same in real life, thankfully.  It is always a gamble to buy a dress online because it can look like a completely different dress, but we had no issues with this beauty! 

Now that we have my girls dressed, it is time to discuss what those handsome boys will wear.  This is where I start to lose my mind... boys are hard to dress!

Here are a few inspiration pictures of what I have in mind.


I love that all the groomsmen have on different suits, but the same tie.  What do you girls think about this one?  Since my girls have on matching dresses should the guys be matching, too?



I love that in this one the groom has on a vest and the groomsmen don't.  I think this is exact look I want, but I'm just not sure about the groom being in a different shade.  Thoughts?


Again, I love that the groomsmen don't have on vests.  What do you think about the groom in this particular picture?

Clearly, I don't know for sure how I want the guys to look.  Share your thoughts on these inspiration pictures!
