Hey everyone! Wanted to get your input. My fiancé found a suit that he LOVES, but two of his groomsmen aren't on board with the pricing. Do you think it would look funny if he wore a different suit than the groomsmen?
Some backstory: When presenting the cost of renting ($260ish) vs. buying just the jacket and pants ($270 -- but we have to wait for a specific sale), all of the guys agreed they'd rather buy then rent. However, we found a package that bundles the jacket, pants, shirt and tie for $399 total (it's a Kenneth Cole suit & we don't pay sales tax in NH). Two people had concerns with the total cost. We offered to help with the cost of their shoes to help ease some of the burden.
In comparison, it is about $260 to rent the suit, shirt, tie, shoes, and belt at a local shop. However, they wouldn't be able to try it on because they live in three different states (ME, NY, and PA).
The blue suit to rent is a solid navy (not too dark or bright blue). My fiance's suit isn't a solid blue -- the fabric has white in it. Here's a link to it -- it looks much better in person: https://www.menswearhouse.com/p/awearness-kenneth-cole-blue-slim-fit-suit-separates-coat-33W133W214
Any thoughts on him wearing a different suit?
