What about the GROOM?

I interviewed about 15 men (married and single) what vest/tie colors would/wouldn't wear in their own personal wedding. Often women go off the deep end picking their favorite girly colors for their wedding not thinking about the groom. Well brides, you still don't HAVE to think about him but if you have one that wants to be included in the details here are some stats on the colors men prefer to wear!

TRADITIONAL

Most men like to stick with the traditional colors black and white, black and ivory, or black on black.

Some of them even commented on how they like to see their bride in a WHITE dress! Lol I assured them that sort of thing doesn't happen often!

BRIGHT COLORS

Obviously most men do not like bright colors but Purples, Blues, Pinks, and Reds won for Grooms Most "do-able" colors.

1st place- Purple: Most men like royal purple because
of the feeling of Royalty it gives them
(my personal fav also for the same reason lol)
Surprisingly a 3/15 of the men mentioned
lavender as a color they WOULD do..
Only 5 men said NO to purple

2nd place- Blue or Red These are obvious
colors because these are the "manliest"
of the bright colors!
7/15 for red 8/15 for blue
3rd place: Most brides choose a variation of pinks for their wedding AND since pink is
one of the most hated colors by men
I was not surprised by the love/hate
relationship all men have with it.
8 men said NO and 7 said YES
Most did specify that the pink they would
wear is the light pink rather than hot pink..
Baffles me lol



 YELLOW received the most NO's 10/15
Yellow is just toooo girly for men!



Most Men were indifferent towards wearing peach.
They like it b/c it isn't to FLASHY! Actually
men would rather wear peach than orange or pink!











OTHER COLORS


Unexpectedly, chocolate brown had more dislikes
than likes.. They actually preferred light brown colors
to chocolate.
Silver can go either way for men.. The main reason
they do not want to wear silver is b/c it is so plain.. Told
them we weren't talking fashion lol!
Men like Gold because it reminds them of royalty
they chose this color to go with the royal purple often.
Not to much surprise here but 10/15 said they liked gold

Last and definitely the LEAST liked is
any color green vest.. lol idk i thought guys liked
green!?


















Brides you still don't HAVE to include your future hubby in the wedding plans if you don't want too but take into account what they might like and see if you can incorporate any of that color for him!!


Happy Planning!
