Suits.
Ok, we postponed engagment pics for a number of reasons. One of the reasons (that wasn't actually decided factor, but still) is the 15 pounds I gained in Jordan! EEK! No worries. Already on the way to losing it, but more on that later. We did go to Mens' Wearhouse and after looking at tuxes, I went to where my heart had always truly lied with: suits.
I was especially inspired by this:
Joseph Gordon-Levitt in Inception was rockin' a great look. I loved the three piece idea and really thought by giving David the suit jacket and the other guys just a vest, it'll set him apart nicely.
We ended up deciding on this! They are charcoal suit separates and we're getting a vest for all the guys and a jacket for Dave as well! It worked out perfectly! Now, we haven't made the purchases yet, so if I decide on suspenders after all, we can still totally do that!
As for ties, we decided on skinny ties. David wears them all the time anyway. =) He suggested the guys all wear the same colors, but with different patterns to which I responded "I SAW THAT ON WEDDINGBEE!" One of the girls on the board posted all these fun ties she got for the guys!
Sweet, right?? Also, I love the argyle socks! =) She ordered these from TieBar.com, which is pretty cool, but reeeally hard to navigate! We may try Express. Till then, I'll just keep my eyes peeled! ;)
I love the idea of different patterns on the ties. Haven't decided on the suit vs. tux dilemma yet but that's the Mister's decision anywhos.
ReplyDeleteLove the idea of the jacket for your fiance and just the vest for the guys. Love those green ties and socks you found on weddingbee! Always found great inspiration on there! My husband wore a black vest with black jacket and blue tie and the guys wore blue vest and blue tie.
ReplyDeleteI love those socks! And the ties. I wanted suits for my wedding too. My Husband really wanted to wear a tux though...

Those socks, ties and charcoal suit are very good combination, its a brilliant idea.
