Need help for the kiddies!

[**~Linda~**]

Ok girls ive about had it with all the men's and the boys attire! Everytime we come to an agreement about something, something else gets ruined...

First it was FI not wanting to wear black and not looking good in Ivory or White because is washed him out. Then it was all about him wanting to wear grey and grey not really matching the wedding at all. To top it off the most recent situation we had was X-ing the idea of Chocolate Tuxes because my FMIL felt like she would be out of place and clash in the wedding pictures(sigh!).... We have finally come to an agreement and chosen this tuxedo for the guys but have come to a hurdle with the youngsters.. I have 4 cuties at the wedding, 2 of my nephews ages 5 and 21 months and my son who is 6 participating at the wedding. My oldest nephew and my son both want to carry one of the rings so they will each be ring bearers and the 21 month old is going to walk my 21 month old flower girl(cutie #4 !).. Its really important for me to have all my boys be a part of this and Ive been so looking forward to it but we have come to a hurdle regarding my 5 yr old nephews size. He is what we call a little bit on the husky side so much so that he is currently about a size 8 and about as tall as my son (say 4ft). The problem that we are encountering is that although he is a size 8

 

1) most of the suit sets that we have come across are only available up to size 7

2) the only other suit that we have come across that can be used for all the kids is only available in a sz 10 for him and is $70!!!!

 

Does anyone know an affordable website that we can find suits to match and that have sz 8 available or customizable sizing? We have gone to local stores in both PR and in NY and have come up with nothing . FI is extremely adamant about kids matching each other and he doesn't want them to go as informal as khakis and a shirt. In his words "id like them to have something going on"...

 

Any ideas or help are kindly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

What about one of these?

Other Colors

 

This one specifically looks similar to your FI's & comes in a ton of sizes

Other Colors - - Baby tuxedos, boys tuxedos, infant tuxedos, toddler tuxedos, boys tuxedo shoes - Boys 5 Piece Olive Suit by Lito - Lito

 

Amazon.com: Gino Formal Suit Set Khaki for Boys From Toddler to Teen: Clothing

 

unfortunately it seems like they're all pretty expensive. And your FI is set on them wearing suits? What if they wore guayabera shirts & tan pants? They'd still have 'something goin on' & they'd be more comfortable! (though those can be pricey too)

Infant and Children's Guayabera Shirts

 

hope you guys find something soon!

Thanks a bunch for your reply, help and suggestions!

 

Guayaberas are a great idea, unfortunately we both want them to look a bit dressier as to stick to a more formal attire. I did however find a tan suit( his tux is more on the Latte/Tan color IRL) in the site you linked that just might do! BUT my goodness when did little boys clothes get so expensive! lol
