Suspenders and Vests

Cassie, on January 11, 2018 at 7:12 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 12

Would it look weird to have the bridal/wedding party in suspenders and bow ties/regular ties and then have the two ring bearers in vests and a tie? Every example I have seen has been the opposite (wedding party in vests and the ring bearer(s) in suspenders lol). But the suspenders I found don't come in kids sizes so I was going to have them do vests instead.

Weird? Awesome? Whatever? Lol.

Thanks!

    Tux places rent kids suspenders. Etsy has them too. And other children's clothing places.

    Right, but I found a particular pair of suspenders that match the tie we chose. And those suspenders are only in an adult size.

    I say do whatever you like. If you like the suspenders for the groomsmen, then do that. Both are more casual options.

    I don't think it would look weird. You don't have to have the groomsmen and ring bearers match perfectly, just coordinate the colors and your good to go!

    I don't think it will look weird. Honestly, sometimes it looks a little odd to me when everything is SUPER coordinated, a little playfulness in the look of your day is awesome IMO.

    Our groomsmen are wearing matching suspenders and my ring bearer is wearing a different pair (ring bearer and flowergirl are wearing opposing colors the the side they are standing on). My fiance and son are wearing vests. I see no problem with mixing things up just a little so that it's not too uniform.

    Not weird at all! I love the suspenders look on a certain age group, but I think it looks awkward on much older or younger men to be honest. Little kids look adorable in vests. They would hate wearing suspenders anyways.

    I love love love the look of suspenders and bowties. It is so cute and fun and a great way to add color to men's formal wear without being expensive! As far as the GSM's Matching the ring bearer, I think its fine to have the little man in a vest. I think he is allowed to be a little bit snazzier. I say go for the bowties! Amazon has great deals on sets of bowties and suspenders!

    Personally, I think that is a detail only you and anyone in on the planning will notice. Plus, both are good looks and I think it would be just fine mixing it up a little so it's not all the same.

    I think it will look fine. I also think it would be fine if the RB's had different suspenders from the GM. Either will look great, I'm sure.
