Post Groom and GM attire

[Gerald]

I am still wondering what to wear for my upcoming wedding! Any ideas?

My FI is buying his white linen suit from Island Importer. They said they can custom make his suit.. we are excited about that! We bought our GM white linen pants at marshalls for 30.00 they are calvin klein.. we ended up buying the guys a fuchsia/white striped shirt to match the BM's. They were with a sale 40.00 each. We also bought the guys white leather kenneth cole sandals at the outlet.. I personally love them! The only prob is the FI cant fit into the EXPRESS MENS shirts so we have to have his tailor custom make his shirt!!

the Groomsmen's outfits but without the loafers they will wear sandals

Hi ladies!

 

I have a question I'm hoping you can answer as my FI and I don't totally agree on the colour of the shirt he should wear.

 

Did any of you (or are any of you planning to) have your groom's shirt match the colour of the bridesmaids dresses? My bm's dresses are turqouise and we found a men's dress shirt in the exact colour. To be a little different, I think it would be cool to have my groom wear that colour as his shirt, and then the groomsmen to just wear white shirts. Anyone done this? I know most grooms wear a white shirt and maybe have the groomsmen wear coloured shirts but I just thought it would be nice to switch it up a little!

 

If you did this, can you post pictures??

 

I'd appreciate any suggestions. Thanks!!!

I've seen that done before and I thought it looked really nice. Unfortunately I don't have a picture..but I say if you like it and the FI agrees...then do it! But if he doesnt want to wear it then maybe have the groomsmen wear it??

I was thinking of doing the same thing. would love to see some pictures if anyone has any? I know that islandimporter will custom make in many different colors

I love looking at everyone great outfits! I have a question though....

 

Is/Did anyone have a groom wear shorts? Amazingly I am the one who thinks he should consider it. Nice shorts with a white shirt just sounds more comfortable for him, and we are going to be quite casual. I am wearing a nice dress, but it is a destination style and not too dressy. He doesn't have any groomsman.

 

Just wondering if anyone else did the shorts thing for the groom and how did they feel about it? We are getting married in Aruba and I also need to look into whether the officiants would have a problem shorts on the beach.

 

Thanks ladies!

I've seen it done and it definitely looks nice. I think given your description that it should totally work. I was thinking the same, but some of my groomsmen have fugly legs. lol. Good luck!
