All,
I am getting married in Asheville, NC in June at 530pm. The wedding is outside and going to be fairly laid back but my fiance is wearing a very elegant dress in champagne. Her bridesmaids will be in lavender and the floral work will be white and green with twigs and moss etc. I hate the idea of wasting my money and the money of my groomsmen on ill-fitting rental tuxes. For that reason and my general idea for what I want the wedding to look like, I am looking for a poplin, cotton or linen suit that will look good and that my groomsmen, like all the bridesmaids out there, can totally wear again. My hope is to keep the suit around $250-300. My suits of choice are Samuelsohn, HSM, and Jack Victor, which clearly aren't options at this price point. Could anyone suggest some lines that I will not feel like I am wearing a leisure suit in? I am leaning toward a navy suit as a slight variation from the tan/oyster poplin or cotton suit. One wrinkle in my effort is that one of my groomsmen is a 56XL coat size. If i cant find the right look for the right price, I am leaning towards one of the light/ pearl gray tux's available thru JAB or MW. Know I am patently opposed to MW and JAB but i am in a pickle that keeps them as possible options. I have heard Haspel is an option as is Hardwick. I am also looking at Indochino. I am guessing there is a thread in existence that i didnt come across so feel free to forward me to it.
Thanks so much,
WRW
