FH is very specific about his menswear. He is a touch “extra”. He wants a specific color of suit which he calls sapphire blue but is more of a cobalt. I can’t find it anywhere on any website that rents tuxes and I don’t think it’s fair to have to make the groomsmen buy a $400+ suit in an obscure color for our wedding. Please help!

Maybe have them wear sapphire blue ties instead?

Because sapphires come in very light to very dark intense blues, menswear makers often use terms royal blue and Cobalt. Jim's and National both had suits and tuxes this past summer in royal and Cobalt, a couple each, and what my sister's now hubby got, Cobalt with black satin lapels for groom, with GM in black, but blue vests and ties. Jim's has many local stores in chain, and does online.

FH & his groomsmen went with this "Bright Blue" Kenneth Cole suit, and it looks great in person! It's definitely lighter than navy in person but isn't something "out there" where people couldn't wear it again. It was only $119.99 from Macy's! They're having a sale on them right now as well.

Check out Black Tux- they do rentals that ship to you and have really modern cuts and interesting color options! I feel like there’s always promos going on too.
