Velvet tuxes? Or colored tux??

Amanda , on August 13, 2017 at 7:41 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 6

Hi there!!

My FH and I really want to something different for his suit. Our bridesmaids are in a dark forest green and we were hoping to get him a suit coat to match that deep color. Anyone have advice where to get something like this? We once got a deep blue velvet suit coat from kohls, but green seems to be tricky!!!

    I'm a fan of classic black or lately, the navy blue ones.

    It would be a bit too costumey for me, but since you asked:

    I'm a fan of midnight blue tuxes (under dim ballroom lights they actually look darker than black). But as an avid reader of Town & Country and one who has an entire Pinterest board dedicated to black watch plaid, I'm going to echo @muriel's suggestion.

    My FH bought his velvet tux jacket from SuitSupply (online as a store is not near us). His is a "midnight brown" - it pretty much looks like a very dark gold/blackish velvet. I love it!

    Here is a link to a navy blue one on their site : http://us.suitsupply.com/en_US/jackets/lazio-blue-plain-dinner-jacket/C1025I.html?cgid=Jackets&prefn1=collectionID&prefv1=Fall%2fWinter

    My MOH & his BM (our only wedding party) are both in black velvet - black velvet evening gown and a black velvet tux jacket. I love all of it together!
