GROOM: with or without tie?

[boscobel]

No, I am def not picking something for him (unless he fails to get something by the time the wedding iis here!). But I had to change my "whatever you want to wear" and add "with my approval". Only b/c he thinks that you shouldn't have to wear a shirt if you are on the beach - wedding or not. So, needless to say, I changed my mind real quick and let him know that he can pick out anything he wants within reason. Can't be too careful!

ahhh yes, small detail. he did actually have to wear a shirt. good catch!

If I didn't do the research and give him some options, he'd probably show up in his swim shorts. As long as he's dressed I really don't care, but I have to be involved because to get him to take care of anything is like pulling teeth.

I am in the same club as Paul. I picked everything out myself and did not even show Karen until the wedding day.

I went for the no tie look. It was already hot enough in the suit and shirt. I did bring one with me just in case I changed my mind at the last minute though.

the original guybera (sp?) shirt that paul bought he didn't like. so we went shopping the week before we left for Mexico, and he bought a couple light white shirts. he decided the morning of the wedding which one he was going to wear! then he wore the other one for our legal ceremony in Hawaii.

I love the tie look. FI is wearing a tan suit with a pink tie. I think it makes them look so cute.

I said the same thing ("whatever you want to wear"), but then Mike got all excited and told his GMs they were wearing tux t-shirts. He even went so far as to research them online and find ones with bouteneirs that match my BMs dresses! So, saying I don't care what he wears only goes so far!

OMG, that is too funny. Once I told Matt that he HAD to wear a shirt, he said, fine how bout a tuxedo t-shirt? I told him NO WAY! Then I told him, we can do tuxedo t-shirts for the reception, cuz it is kinda funny. But I want at least some nice and pretty pics!

I told my FI what other GM's wore for there beach ceremony and he liked the idea as well as I. In the end I got the same response as always "whatever makes you happy."

I told Mike he could wear the tux t-shirt the ENTIRE time we're there, with the exception of the actual ceremony because I want nice pics!
