I'm having a fairly casual wedding (outdoor ceremony, barn reception) and don't feel like my FI should wear a full tux. I like the look of shirt, tie and vest for him and then just shirt and tie for the groomsmen. Can we rent tuxes without a jacket? Or should he rent the whole tux and just not wear the jacket? Or just have him buy new pants, a vest, a shirt, and a tie?
I also have to try to convince him not to wear black, but that's another issue. Why he wants to wear black for an outdoor August wedding is beyond me.
