The Guys Look
So, yes, we got the chocolate brown tuxes – without stripes ;o). But what else? Well, I stumbled across the ties by Etsy seller toybreaker and loved the peacock feather pattern so we got them! The teal is not quite the right shade but we’re working on it [NOTE: there definitely seems to be two main shades of teal - a bluer teal (mine) and a greener teal (the tie and some organza we bought) so I'm going to try to dye it a little more blue]. Steven’s boutiennier will be an copper orange orchid with a fiddlehead fern and a peacock eye. The guys will not have a calla – I think we decided on a dahlia but each will have a fiddlehead fern and peacock eye as well.
I gave Steven a pair of teal cufflinks for Valentine’s this year to wear for the wedding. I just love the way the teal tie looks with the brown tux!
