Re: QOTD 4/9

  • They haven't picked out tuxes or anything but as far as I know we plan to have black tuxes and horizon vests for ALL the guys. Our other color is pink and the only thing pink is flowers so I don't think there is a point in them wearing a different color

  • All the guys will be in the same black tux. FI's tie and vest will be ivory to match my dress. GM will have silver tie and vest. All the guys will have a pink bout with navy ribbon. Hopefully, FI and I can go to the tux shop this weekend.
    Love and Blessings

  • FI will be wearing a tux with a really nice white vest and bowtie.  The GM will be wearing the same tux jackets but instead of a vest or bowtie they'll be wearing the long European ties we bought.  RB will be in a boy's suit with a long tie.  I'm going to see how it looks with the GM (his dad is one).  His tie is darker than the GM ties.  If its a noticible difference we may see if adding a white vest will help.  My dad bought a new really nice tux.

    We picked tuxes a few weeks ago, and it was surprisingly hard to get FI to figure out what he wanted, considering how vocal he's been about the tuxes he's had to wear in other people's weddings, LOL. They're pretty standard tuxes, pretty much just a more formal version of a black suit. FI's vest and tie are canary yellow and the GMs' are plum to match the bridesmaids dresses. Our dads are wearing the same tuxes, but vest and tie color are still to be determined.

  • We will hopefully be going this week to look at tuxs for the first time. He will wear a tux with a ivory pocket square to match my dress, the men will wear a tux with an apple colored pocket square to match the girls. 
    I looked online at some tuxs from Men's Wearhouse and I did not like the shiny lapel (is that what it is called) so I am hoping they have some non shiny ones.

    No one will be wearing a bout and I was thinking about having my dad's pocket square match the color of my mom's dress and having FFIL pocket square match FMIL.  What do you think about this, honest opinions, too prom-y?

    FI is wearing brown corduroy pants (which he picked out) with an ivory colored button up shirt, a brown tie (it's kind of criss-crossed striped, I don't know how to describe it) and then he is wearing a brown vest which we found at Forever21 (believe it or not). Oh, and brown shoes which he picked and he loves.

    GM are wearing a different color brown corduroy pants with ivory button up shirts, ties TBD.

    Dads are wearing a nice brown paisley tie that we found for them, brown pants and ivory shirts.

    Officiant (my uncle) is wearing a darker brown paisley tie that we found for him, brown pants and ivory shirt.

    Junior Groomsman - TBD (something similar to GM).

    All of the above are wearing a bout that I made out of burlap, feathers and buttons.

  • FI is wearing an ivory dinner jacket with the black bowtie, very classic and fits perfectly with our vintage glam theme. The GMs are wearing classic black tuxes.

  • FI and GM are all wearing brown tuxes. FI will have an ivory vest/tie to match me. GM will wear either burnt orange or golden yellow vest/tie, but I'm leaving that to FI to decide.

  • FI want this from JCP.  He even loves the shirt and tie.  We will probably just ask our brothers to wear khakis and a button down.  No bouts except for FI.

  • Groomsmen were told to buy brown dress pants, white shirts and brown vests. They'll be mixed and matched but thats what were going for. FI is doing the same, he'll also have his cowboy boots on.

    <div>They do.  Trying to figure out what you want using the MW site is kinda hard, especially if you don't know what you're looking at.  Once you have everything picked out the site has a thing where you can basically dress your groom to see it all together. The guy at MW that helped me was really nice and explained the differences I didn't know and helped with ideas to keep FI formal looking but keep the GM looking slightly less formal.  I want them to match the formality of the BM who are just in LBD's that they're buying from department stores.</div>

    We haven't started looking at tuxes yet, but definitely black tuxes for FI, GM, Ring Bearer, and FI's dad.  They will all have boutonierre's too (a single white freesia).  Not sure about ties, vests, etc right now.

    We haven't started looking yet since the only guy we're dressing is my FI (no wedding party), but I think he's going to wear a nice black suit (he needs one anyway), probably with a vest. We'll go to Men's Wearhouse in the next couple weeks to look at styles and hopefully get him to try some on.
    It doesn't have to be perfect to be everything I want!

  • FI is wearing black tux with red vest, red tie, and black shirt.  BM is wearing black tux with black vest, black tie, and red shirt.  No groomsmen or bridesmaids, but the MOH is wearing a Red Dress so we will color coordinate them.

  • my FI is not completely sold on the vests. He was thinking black suit with white shirt and sangria tie. he wants his groomsmen to wear a black suit, black shirt and sangria tie. I still have some time to talk him into the vests ; )
