Hi everyone. So I am getting married on the beach in Punta Cana in January, and the dress code is "beach dressy" if you will. Basically I am wearing a traditional (although lightweight) wedding gown, my groom is wearing a khaki suit and ivory shirt (no tie). My bridesmaids are wearing a basic blue cotton sundress from J-Crew, and the groomsmen are wearing ivory short sleeve linen shirts and khakis.

 

My question is: I have found this shirt for my father and future father in law to wear.

 

Tommy Bahama 'Zen Garden' Linen Campshirt

 

It is an ivory color, but brings in the blue of the girls as well. My mom is afraid that my dad's shirt will distract from me (heaven forbid) as he walks me down the aisle, and that I will regret it in pictures later. I'd love everyone's thoughts on if this shirt will look overly busy next to me, and if so, what should he wear? I don't want him in plain ivory, as I think that is just too much ivory and khaki. Thanks so much for your help!

I think its a great shirt for Dad.

 

Are you having any blue accents with your dress or flowers? If so, I think it will complement it even more, but regardless, I think that is a perfect, understated, classy shirt for your Dad to wear while arm in arm with you down the aisle!

i know that feeling! whenever my mom brings up an objection, it totally stresses me out and makes me doubt my choices.

 

i, too, like the blue accent and agree with the other ladies that it wouldn't distract from your dress. but just in case you need another option, here is the shirt i picked for my dad to wear...white with khaki details...

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
