I've perused a few other threads on this forum and can't find the definitive answer I'm seeking. I will be getting married this summer (sooner than later) and I can't decide if I want to wear a suit matching my groomsmen (my brother and future brother in law) and my father and future father in law or wear something similar, just a little nicer. With value as the primary objective, I have already purchased the groomsmen suits - executive 2-button wool, DARK navy from Jos. A. Bank. I am considering the Madison Two-Button 1818 suit (with 25% off with friends and family coupon). What's your advice style gurus? Should I match or stand out slightly? Should I spend the extra money on this Brooks Brothers suit or consider something different?

I'd want to look slightly different. In fact, that's what I'm doing for my wedding in September. Groomsmen will all be wearing their own navy two-pieces, but I will probably be in a three-piece, wearing a traditional wedding tie. My suit will also fit better than theirs
