Tuxedos....

We had a black tie wedding, pics in my report

Funky I read your report your pics look fab... Only thing is we wouldn't be asking guest to come in black tie hence why I feel it may look a bit odd...

Hmm in that case yes it may look a bit odd and may make other male guests feel under dressed.

If you don't like the standard wedding suits you could still do a suit and bow tie combo but I would avoid black as that seems to make it more formal.

Well the grooms men should really stand out more right... I'm trying to find tuxedos in navy blue to hire!! But not having much luck...

We went to a wedding (albeit in San Francisco) and OH was an usher. They all wore full cream tuxedos with brown ties and the groom wore a full brown tux with a cream tie. There were 4 ushers and a best man. It didn't make guests feel under - dressed at all. It wasn't to our taste (we did have a little laugh about it as it was very much the opposite to anything OH would ever wear ever!!) but all the other guests just wore usual suits and everyone looked nice.

We're having an outdoor wedding and OH wants a laid back kind of feel to the whole day so we're looking at grey suits but having OH and groomsmen only wear the wasitcoat, shirt, tie and trousers (pretty sure that idea was a pinterest find too).

I think it would look lovely. If it is what you and your OH want and like, then just go for it. I wouldn't worry about it looking odd.

Me and my OH really dislike the typical groomswear, i.e. morning suits, tails, patterned waistcoats, etc. so we will not be having them. I don't care whether it's the done thing or not, we're just picking what we like. My OH would really like to wear a tweed suit, he has been eyeing up varieties of Yorkshire tweed so that's probably what he'll end up with. We're getting married on Yorkshire day on Ilkley Moor, so it's perfect for us.

I would definitely just go with your preference, I don't think it would be odd at all. I think the tuxedos would look very classy.
