Well, we finally decided on formal wear for the guys.  We decided to go with the J.Crew vest & suit pants.  The groom & best man are wearing a charcoal pinstripe & the ushers are wearing the charcoal pinstripe vest w/ a solid heather grey pant.  They are going to wear a beautiful classy gray Alfani tie with a white pinpoint dress shirt.

The other day we had Derek and Davis try on their vests and pants to make sure everything fit properly.  Without their ties and white shirts they almost looked a tad Amish.  Davis is at the age where he is starting to wear ties more & more.  So his big brother, Derek, stepped in and showed his little bro a thing or two about tying a neck tie.

Okay…..73 days may sound like I have some time, but I don’t.  Derek has not yet decided on what he and davis will wear.  I don’t want the guys in tuxs, but it looks like to make this affordable for everyone we are just gonna have to go with a tux and make it look like a suit.  The thing is…..Derek does not own a suit!!!!

We were going to use this opportunity to buy Derek a nice suit that he can wear again.  But we are also having the issue with Davis (the best man) being one size too small to fit in a standard men’s suit.

This is what I wanted to Derek to look like on our wedding day….

But now he is going to have to wear this……
