hello all,

I posted this over in streetwear & denim first but it was suggested I move here so I xposted it.

I've lurked here for a while and finally decided to post because I need some help. I am getting married this summer on the beach in florida. It's going to be hot, and I'm trying to figure out what to wear. It's going to be slightly informal where I don't want to wear a tux, but a nice appropriate suit of sorts. I'm roughly 6' ~210 and am hoping to shave off 10-15 lbs before then, but I was hoping to get some advice for something appropriate along those lines. I was thinking of contacting get smart to maybe work on something, but I don't know what.

Thanks for any help,
Robert

maybe a cotton suit? Navy would coordinate with just about anything the bride wears, if that's an issue.

A summer wedding on the beach sounds pretty informal, but you still want to look good. This sounds like the perfect occasion for a seersucker suit. I think you may still be able to pick one up at JAB for $97.00. It's a great look. You'll be surprised at how many other guys who see you will compliment the look.

Oh, and congratulations.

A navy linen jacket over a white shirt, and a pair of light colored trousers.
