I'm getting married next year, and am looking at doing a MTM navy (not blue) peak or shawl lapel tuxedo. The last major detail I need to decide before ordering it is what color of satin to put on the lapels. I've seen that a lot of navy tuxedos have black satin or grosgrain lapels- it seems to...

Hi everyone, this is my first post (though I will admit, I have "lurked" here a few times in the past). I wanted to bounce some ideas off the forum about the men's dress at my wedding. It is a 4 pm affair in early June, outside (if seasonable) at a country hotel with a cocktail hour and...

Went to get my wedding suit made today. I really liked the look and feel of the hopsack Navy fabric for a three-piece suit. Is the hopsack too informal, or does that even matter anymore nowadays? It's an evening wedding, FWIW. Thanks!

Gents, I am looking to wear a charcoal nailhead suit at a forthcoming wedding. The event will be held in the UK and it looks set to be a thoroughly miserable day (weather-wise, of course - the event itself will be great fun). I am not one of the wedding party. I am very keen to stay away...

Aside from Andy's tutorial on wedding attire, I have not found a straight answer to this question. I would sincerely appreciate your help. I'm getting married in August, it is a 6:30 wedding, traditional and formal (perhaps I should say semi-formal) in every sense. Guests will be in dinner...

In May of this year I will be attending a wedding and my date is the Maid of Honor, so I would like to be looking nice for her. She will be wearing an "eggplant" colored dress, so I was thinking match a shirt with this color and a medium grey suit? Or is this a no-no? And if so what color tie...
