I really prefer it without the vest while the jacket is on! But why not have the best of both worlds? Is it possible to bring the vest with him (have a family member take it to the reception) and when hes dancing just put on the vest instead of the suit jacket?
I prefer the look without the vest. I also think @mrscheetos: offered a nice idea.
I say just the vest and forget the jacket!
But: since that wasn't what you asked, I say no vest.
the answer is in his face in the photos!! he looks so happy wiht the vest and sad without it. I say vest!
Thanks for all the input guys!! Gonna see if this helps the FI with his decision.
@stargurl101: LOL, you're right -- from photos he looks happier in the vest. I think really though he just wasn't ready for that last pic without the vest :)
great suit and I love the look of the vest underneath, looks very distinguished
He has a young look to him, which is great... but I like the jacket and vest combo because it gives him a more mature look... perfectly compliments him.
Disclaimer: I'm a guy.
Thanks for all the help everyone! FI has decided to wear the vest under the jacket!
Personally, I love vests. I would try to do the best of both worlds too and have him put the vest on after the ceremony.

Hi bees!! I'm a little new to posting on the boards, but I've been a long time lurker ;) Hopefully I go about posting this the right way...
So, our wedding is March 23rd and the FI and I are still finalizing his attire. We're getting married outdoors under a beautiful oak tree. He'll be wearing a khaki suit (just picked it up from Express--great deal with their buy one, get one 50% off sale!).
Our groomsmen are wearing khaki pants, white dress shirts, and wool herringbone vests from studiosuits.com:
The dilemma we have is whether or not FI should wear one of the wool herringbone vests under his suit jacket. He's not sure which option he likes better. I told him ultimately I'm happy with either and I want him to pick what makes him happy. (secretly I am leaning towards the option WITH the vest because I think it will look nice at the reception where he's bound to take his jacket off).
Since he's still torn, I thought maybe some outside opinions could help us decide!
Here it is with the vest under the jacket (excuse the wrinkles!):
And without the vest:
Thanks for your help bees! <3
