Tuxes-All the GM have them already question?

Ok, all of our GM have tuxes already, and for the most part, they are the same style except for 2 (just saw them all at a wedding last weekend and noticed how similar they all look.) All but the 2 have a 2 button jacket, the other 2 have a 3 button jacket.

If we just get them all the same shirt/tie/vest combo, do you think it will look ok? I'd love for them to be able to wear the tuxes they already have and will save us some $$ when it comes to renting.

Also, FH is wearing his own tux to the wedding.

TIA.

Re: Tuxes-All the GM have them already question?

No one will notice the tuxes themselves if they have small differences. The shirts, ties, vests, etc, are what make them all uniform!

You'll be fine!

and who looks at the groomsmen anyway? Everyone will be checking out my hottie BMs!

I can't see them all renting tuxes if they own them already, that would be dumb.

Word of advice though. If yu have small children in your BP, take them to Denny's Childrenswear to buy rather than rent tuxedos. Even though tux places discount for the kids, we found that it was significantly cheaper to buy them - about $50 cheaper and they come with ties, vests and shirts. We will be going in January for my nephew as he is little and still growing. The two other boys are borrowing from friends who were ring bearers before.

Re: Tuxes-All the GM have them already question?

That is what we are doing...they all have their own tuxes, so we are just coordinating shirts and ties.

Re: Tuxes-All the GM have them already question?

It will be fine. The boys all rented for my brother's wedding, and the shop screwed up (which wasn't noticed until too late - men!), so that their jackets were not all the same. You couldn't even tell, and you can't tell the difference in the pictures.

I say no need to rent if they already own!
