Tuxedo dilemma

Ok my FH is a complete duck when it comes to formalwear so my mother and I decided to give him 3 options and let him decide from there. Ok so I need your opinions on what will look best. Here's the schematics:

1. Outdoor evening ULTRAFORMAL affair.
2. Primary colors are Tiffany blue, platinum and ivory
3. Bridesmaids in various sorbet shades

I need tux ideas for my FH and the groomsmen.

TIA

I agree ask Niquey or Joann. They are the experts.

Evening, outdoor, platinum and tiffany blue: If you're going to have your girl in various sorbet shades, keep the tuxedos simple and clean.

Yes I wanted something simple and elegant that would go with the entire color scheme. At his first wedding the poor child had on a stark white tuxedo. And his friends think top hats and canes are just the best. But I WILL NOT have him looking like Archie and crew from Bridezillas! I just want to distinguish FH and the best man from the groomsmen and the ushers.

Re: Tuxedo dilemma

OK what's wrong with an all white suit? Does anybody have pictures of a real man in an all white suit. I want FH to wear a white suit and red vest and tie.But there will be no top hs and the only canes will be used for the people who actually need them to walk with.

Nothing is wrong with a white tux. But if you want it look classy, skip the red vest and tie and go for a red Boutonniere.

Re: Tuxedo dilemma

Niquey thanks for the picture but I doubt really seriously that my FH will not wear a red vest and tie. The only thing he really wants from this whole thing is to be in red. I can suggest that he wear a red boutonnire and a white vest and tie but I KNOW it aint happening. I think the boutonnires will be red anyway.

The red tie and red boutonniere would be elegant and a nice match next to your gown.
