FI and I went suit shopping today for the wedding. We decided just to buy suits for the groomsmen instead of doing tuxedo rental. I rarely see rented tuxes that fit correctly and the guy at Men''s Warehouse said that tux rental can run around $150/tux anyway so with MW''s ''buy one suit, get the second for $100,'' we''ll be getting them each for about $200.
Anyway.... the people at MW told us that since my gown is ivory, that FI shouldn''t wear a white shirt as it would make my dress look dirty. Has anyone heard this before? The ivory shirts they had all seemed REALLY yellow. I think bridal ivory is pretty dang white myself. Has anyone else heard this? He''s going to be wearing the jacket through pictures, the ceremony and first dance so it''s not like a lot of the shirt will be showing anyway.
I''d never heard of the groom wearing an ivory shirt if the bride''s dress isn''t white-white. Has anyone else?
