My wedding will be taking place next year, and while I have a general idea of what I would like myself and my groomsmen to look like, I wanted to get some advice and input from the SF community to guide my decisions.
Pertinent info regarding the wedding:
- Mid September
- Semi-formal
- Bridal party will be dressed in either cream/off white or blush tones (non-uniform)
- I will have 6 groomsmen
My initial thoughts are to wear a SB solid navy suit, white semi-spread collar shirt, black cap-toe bals. I'd love suggestions on a tie (probably to pair with a white linen PS). I've heard the term "wedding tie" but am not sure what this constitutes (some kind of glen check?).
My main conundrum is dressing my groomsmen. My initial thoughts are to have them all dress in navy suits as well, but provide them with individually different ties (to avoid a cookiecutter/uniform appearance. Also, while I will certainly splurge a little on my suit - I know that most of my groomsmen either a) will not have a navy suit already, and b) are not in a position to spurge on anything pricy. Having said this, how should I go about arranging their attire? Or any other suggestions on their attire? Should I just tell them to show up in a navy suit and hope for the best?![shog[1].gif](http://files.styleforum.net/images/smilies/shog%5B1%5D.gif)
Any and all thoughtful advice is welcomed. I'm sure I have left out details that may be important, so feel free to ask any questions as well. Thanks all!
