FORMALWEAR ETIQUETTE

It used to be that there were set, concrete rules that should be followed for formalwear. That was then, this is now.
Your wedding clothing selection should be determined by:
  • the kind of wedding you and your fiancee want;
  • the number of guests;
  • how many attendants there'll be;
  • the time of day and location of the event;
  • and the food and entertainment.

However, one important point to consider in your formalwear selection, is what do you want to see in your wedding photographs? During the wedding ceremonies you'll no doubt be too busy and preoccupied to notice details. But your photographs will provide a lasting memory legacy of such a joyous occassion. Formal wear for all of your wedding party, and some of your most important guests will ensure that you have a visual memory of the finest quality.

The following links provide suggestions for your wedding attire, but remember, your selections should agree with your personal tastes.
