     Black Shirt HELP!  

SmileOkay here is my ? Why do u say it is inappropriate to wear a black shirt with the Tux's...is this because its out of the ordinary? We think it looks extremely classy and fun, we also had the problem with the Color (Cranberry) of my bridesmaid dress's not coordinating with any of the Vests or Ties. So what we are doing is having Black Trad'l Jacket & Pants, with a Black Shirt, Black Vest with a hint of silver (the pattern) with a Cranberry colored Tie. Then my Fiance will be wearing the same but with a Platinum (Silver) colored Tie. I am wondering why this would be inappropriate?

Dear Tina,

What you are proposing I think is great, you are being creative. Traditionally white shirts and cranberry colored vest and ties would work better. The more contrast the better I feel. The outfits your guys will be wearing will be very dark and will not photograph well.

Dear Tina,

The black shirt is normally worn by dj's. Its just dark and gives no contrast with vest. I think silver vests and ties and white shirts is a better look.
