    We are having some conflict over suspender colors (oh the conflicts I never anticipating having before planning a wedding!)

    The guys are wearing tan colored suits with orange ties and chocolate brown shoes. What color suspenders should they wear? I'd love to see inspiration pictures if you have any, but if not, please cast your vote! My fiance and I have strong but differing opinions on the matter but I won't say what I was thinking so I don't sway anyone =)

    I would say either tan suspenders in keeping with the tan suit, or perhaps even orange suspenders to match their ties would be nice too.   What color shirts are they wearing?

    I'm leaning toward brown...? Having trouble creating a visual in my mind, though. :)

    I'm with Gemstone - leaning towards brown (tan seems a little matchy-matchy) but it is hard to get a good mental picture.

    I would match the suspenders to the shoes. To me, its like matching the belt to the shoes... So i would go with brown!

    Thats what I thought too! My fiance, his mom, and his grandmother are all adamant that we should get the tan, but I think that might look weird, especially if it doesn't match the suits exactly - if its slightly off, it'll look weird.
