Suit vs Tux

I am really liking the suit look over the Tux look. But I am not sure. It is definitly easier to go the tux route I think.

Any thoughts? What are you planning on putting the guys in?

Re: Suit vs Tux

  • I am doing Grey Tuxes But i have seen weddings with guys in suits and it did look nice too it is all about your taste and what he groom will feel comfortable in

    We went with the same tux, as well.  I was set on grey suits for a while but, as we continued to plan, the black tux just worked with our level of formality.
  • We are doing The Biltmore by Calvin Klein black tux from Savvi Formalwear. All the guys preferred the tux versus the suit...idk why.
  • We're doing suits.  We didn't want to make it too formal and since its a daytime wedding, we decided on plain black suits.

  • We chose the Vera Wang grey tux from Men's Warehouse - our consultant said that it's nice because it still has some of the "tux" qualities while still almost looking like a suit. I love it, it was exactly what I had pictured.

    A third for the Vera Wang classic black tux :) We also wanted gray for a white but when FI was trying things on, the black just looked more classic, which is what we are going for.

    Make that four for the Vera Wang black tux.  FI was set on tuxes and wouldn't even consider suits.  I didn't really care.

  • This is the suit we ended up buying last night

    We got such a great deal on it and the GM are all excited to be able to keep it. FI and I have agreed to buy the socks and ties as a gift.
  • We're doing grey suits but the guys still have to go so anything can happen :)
  • My FI refuses to wear a tux. Said he would absolutely not wear one. That was fine with me. He is going to wear a black suit.
  • My fiance wants to wear a suit, I think mostly because he wants to keep it. Plus both of his GM made a comment that they have been in wedding before and the cost of rental was so not worth it to them. They also would rather spend the money and be able to keep it.
  • My FH and Groomsmen are wearing jeans, boots, and button up shirts with vests and ties

    Ditto 
  • The guys are wearing brown tuxes.  It just fit better with the theme and my champagne dress.

  • My fiance and his groomsmen are all wearing dark grey suits from Jos A Banks. They have 70% off suits there for wedding parties, including the ties and shirts, which ends up being up about the same amount that the guys would pay for renting a tux. My fiance does like tuxes, but we have been to so many wedding where the fit is really poor and the tuxes look too baggy. He figured that with suits the fit would be really good and all the guys would have a new suit.

  • My FI wants to wear a tux and we have a coupon from Men's Wearhouse for $40 off of every tux.

  • Aaaannnnddddd SIX for the Vera Wang tux. My FI really didn't want to do tuxes because every tux he's rented in the past has been so boxy and poor fitting but when he put on the VW tux he was so excited with how good he looked, which makes me excited. Our only hesitation was the price tag, but we decided to go with it anyway. Very excited to see all the guys look so sharp!
