SUMMER WEDDINGS… ALTERNATIVES TO TUXEDOS FOR THE GROOM

By February 10, 2013No Comments

Many of my customers are opting to outfit the groom and his groomsmen in suits vs. tuxedos.

Dan Burke and his groomsmen…looking great in their suits!

Dan Burke went with a beautiful black two button, side-vented suit with flat front trousers…a timeless choice that his guys can wear forever!  A white shirt,  simple black tie, and white pocket square to match their shirts completed this elegant outfit.  The groom chose to go with a beautiful designer tie his bride purchased while he chose simple solid, black satin ties for his groomsmen.

DESTINATION WEDDINGS…WHAT A TRIP!

Another popular alternative to the traditional wedding today, is a “destination wedding”…normally in a warmer locale.  The suit of choice for these weddings is either linen or my favorite…our linen/wool blend from our Barberis collection.  The advantage of our linen/wool fabric is that is doesn’t wrinkle as easily as linen, provides the same look/feel as linen, and is just as comfortable!
