And a standard white shirt


Suppose the Navy suit is non-negotiable--what would you change?

Specifically, I dont know what tie/shirt to choose; what do you think?

At a wedding I recommend black shoes/black belt. White shirt and grey tie, grey glenplaid is a solid choice. A burgundy tie also looks nice.

Navy suit is fine, preferably solid. Two button looks better than 3 button.
