I like the lighter colored ties better than a dark brown. I noticed the dress has a little ribbon around the waist. Could you change the ribbon to black to match the guys suits or taupe to match the ties? Also what color of shoes are your bridesmaid's wearing?
Brown and black is a classic ombination - though I would be concerned about it being a bit dark. What I would do is find some green ties that will look nice and buy 'em! Who cares if its not the exact shade of your girls dresses??
Is there any chance you can get the guys in something other than a black suit? IMO, it is a little dark for your look, and too formal. If not, go with the lightest tie possible.

I have a bit of a dilemma with figuring out the men's attire for my wedding. The bridesmaids are wearing a spring green color and the color scheme of the wedding is meant to be natural earthtones with the accent color of spring green. It is outdoors in the SPRING and we are trying to create a garden/natural type look. We are using wild flowers and some Willow Tree looking stuff.
The green of the dresses is going to be hard to match and I won't get the dresses in until close to the wedding, so I was thinking of choosing coordinating but not matching colors for the men.
I wondered if it is ok to pair a black suit with a taupe tie? They will not be in tuxes, just suits and ties. The boutonnieres will have quite a bit of green in them. Also I had wondered if it's acceptable to use brown ties with the black suits. Would that look too dark for Spring?Or maybe the groomsmen could wear the brown ties and the groom a taupe tie? Or the groomsmen wear taupe ties and the groom wear a white tie or light khaki tie?
Also would it be acceptable for the flower girl to wear taupe linen and the ring bearers to wear brown polos with khaki pants?
Here is a pic of the dresses:
