Not sure regarding navy blue, but it probably isn't too big of a deal unless you're real particular. I was in a wedding where the groomsmen were told to wear a black suit and tie.....ya know, I didn't even notice they weren't a) in tuxes or b) didn't have the same suit on right off the bat.
Even if the colors will be a little off (khaki shades vary, too), they'll still look fine I think
I saw a wedding on another site recently that had the groomsmen in the same thing you discribed, khaki pants with navy blazers. they were all, (or many), different although it did look like they tried and I think it looked really sloppy. not only are there many different shades of navy but there are many different fabrics and textures that will give each blazer a very different look. Also what out for the khaki pants. in this photo the guys were all over the place with their khaki and it was the first thing i noticed when i looked at the pic.
We're just having our groomsmen wear black or charcoal suits....we don't mind minor discrepancies. I don't think it's a big deal at all.
Ours wore navy blue blazers that weren't the same and I didn't notice them not matching.
It all depends on what you are looking for. If you want them to look uniform, then you need to specify the same exact khakis and same exact navy blazers because what you think the guys will be wearing may be totally different that what the guys pull out of their closet.
If you don't care if they are matchy-matchy, then let them wear whatever they want.
i agree, it just totally depends on the look that you are going for. I know that for me, I would want them to be the same, but that's because I like the monocromatic look of the matching outfits, but it's totally your call, there is really no right answer here!
Our guys wore navy blazers and khakis - I'll be posting pictures in a few days. We originally had 4 guys in the bridal party, we got them all the same blazer and pants bc I was worried. Then we added 3 more and they wore their own stuff and you really can't tell imo.
PM me if you want a pic sooner!
I think it's interesting when brides who'd rather die than dress the girls less than perfectly think it's no big deal if the guys don't match. No wonder some guys have the attitude they do about how they look on the biggest day of their lives....
I've definitely seen the bring your own and I like the feeling of each guy looking a little different. A few things to consider: the color of the khakis, you may want to tell them light or dark just so they are around the same color family; With the blazers if it matters to you some are 2 button some are 3 some have brass buttons and some have regular navy blue buttons. Definitely look at all of the groomsmen's outfits before the wedding day to make sure nothing stands out awkwardly. But again a little difference in the attire doesn't by any means look bad!

My finance and his groomsmen are all wearing navy blue blazers, white shirts, tie and khakis. Do all the blazers need to be the same blazer? I'm convinced that if they are not the guys won't be matching. Plus, you can never trust people to show up with freshly dry cleaned stuff. Thoughts?
