Why the heck do you guys all have to wear the exact same suit? Personally, I think that will look really cheesy. Handle your own suit (not black), and give your groomsmen some general guidelines (not black).

Our Frank and open conversations. They get me nowhere. They just bring me down so.

Dopey...do you have a link to a full sized pic of your avatar? That little Dopey(?) in there looks super creepy.

I kind of like Mafoo's idea of each guy handling their own suit. Although I'd likely give them stricter guidelines than "Not Black".

I'm surprised you even have one to begin with. Are you going to have your groomsmen also wear black suits? Are you doing bow ties? Did your fiancee make you?

It's from everyone's favorite Savile Row Master Tailor. I may change into le smoking for the reception. I have a neat new dress set to break in.

Are you going to have your groomsmen also wear black suits?
No, they get to wear navy.

Are you doing bow ties?
No, except if I change into a tux.
Did your fiancee make you?
She wisely stayed away from this.



You're one of us???

She does get on my nerves.


A lot.

But I have self-control.

A little.
