Tuxedos

The shirt will probably be the easiest decision for your groom. His choices are white and black. White being the obvious choice of many but, a black shirt can offer a sharp look.

Not all tuxedo jackets are the same. You have to decide if you want tails, the length, the collar and even what style of buttons you prefer.

The groom needs to decide if he wants to wear a vest or cummerbund. The color should match the theme of the wedding although some men choose to wear the traditional black.

The tie is one of the most difficult pieces to decide on. You have the classic bow tie, a simple straight tie, Ascot tie, the cowboy tie, contemporary formal or a large gemstone (usually black).

The shoes and pants are generally standard.

If you decide on a theme wedding, the groom could pull away from the traditional tuxedo and dress unique while keeping his charm.

1. Beach theme - Cacky shorts, sandals and a white polo shirt
2. Swingers - A Zoot Suit
3. Country - Jeans, cowboy boots, button down shirt, dress jacket and hat
4. Celtic - Long jacket, dress pants, black boots and no tie.
