Choosing a Suit or Tuxedo on Your Wedding Day?

There have always been debates on whether the groom should wear a suit or a tuxedo on their wedding day. The answer you ask? Well, there is no answer to this question. It’s all about YOUR preference and what works best for you!

The most important key to picking your outfit is that it fits properly. To find out, try on both the suit and tuxedo including the correct shirt and shoes. This will give you a comparison of whether a suit or tuxedo is more fitting for you and with that you may begin choosing the style that best represents you!

My thought between wearing a suit and tuxedo is that, if the occasion allows it, go with a tuxedo. The reason I say this is because you may wear a nice suit on your big day and feel dazzled about it, but so can the guests that is attending your wedding. Also, there can be many occasions where you can wear the same suit throughout the year, such as going to work, attend any semi or formal events.  A tuxedo on the other hand, will set you apart from the rest of the crowd and that’s how it should be as it is your special day!

In terms of whether you should invest or rent your outfit, you will need to ask yourself how often you will have the chance to wear this again. If it is something that you can wear again, then investing into a fitted outfit is definitely the better choice than renting for mainly two reasons. For starter, a fitted outfit that you invest will always look better on you than when you rent them and especially for tuxedo. Secondly, financially speaking it is better to buy your outfit if you can re-wear them in the future as there are many occasions where it may be required especially for jobs or interviews.

All-in-all, there is no right or wrong between the outfit you choose. All that matters is that both you and your bride are happy with result as this is YOUR special day after all!
