Newbie here and in quandary about my wedding suit.
First, let me lay down the premises. I plan to have one custom made and to make use of it after I get married. For this reason I am going for a black business suit instead of a tux. That way I can wear it more often since I don't have lots of events to go to using a tux (its it the satin lapel that makes it a tux?). In deciding what color of tie to wear, I was told that a groom would look better if he wears a white tie on a white shirt - and distinguish himself from other guests who would wear colored ties. However, I think a white tie is for a tux.
Question: Is it fashionable to wear a white tie for a black business suit (or dark charcoal grey as some have suggested)? If not, is it possible to make the suit appear like a tux without a satin lapel?
I noticed from magazines that more and more people (celebrities even) are getting married in suits rather than a tux. Is this true?
