I am wearing a midnight blue tux for my wedding. What do you think about me telling my gross men to wear a black shirt with their tuxedos? Cool or no?

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

The point of a tux is contrast, why in the name of god wear a high-contrast outfit and then remove the damn contrast?

You're overthinking this- just stick with the white tuxedo shirt and save yourself from a headache.

Response was very surprising. Im very into the classical look but I also don't like doing the same thing as everyone. I thought black would work well. response was 50/50, now what?

I can 95% promise you those saying that it looks good are just trying to mess with you. It will look terrible. Do not do it.
