    I know it's been asked before.

    I have read EVERY post.

    AND YET- I still cannot find a khaki suit for my man! We are doing a vintagey-feel wedding and want his look to be more casual (no tuxes please!). He loves the tan/khaki idea but evidently it is just NOT the time of year to be shopping for such atire.

    We don't want to spend more than $200.

    So come on busy bees- help this budget bride find a deal!

    Hey - Check out Jim's Formal Wear (online as well)- they are a large distributor and they have a tan/beige colored suit that is actually called Alfresco. If you like it, I would encourage you to find one to see in person because I found the color to photograph differently than it looks in person.

     

    Hope that helps!

    Men's Wearhouse is having a half price sale right now.  We found 2 suits there; one was linen, the other a normal light fabric.  I think in a month or two there will be a ton more selection!  That's what I'm hoping at least.  But I think $200 is totally feasible...

    My Fi and I ended up renting, he's wearing a khaki suit and the groomsmen are wearing khakis and navy blazers. We did this at Classic Tuxedo (They're mostly in New England)

    we're trying to do the same thing!!  i'd love to find a linen suit, under $200. 

    @sarahsd- i've been looking at mens warehouse online but haven't found much, we actually went in to the store a month ago but they mostly still had winter things out.  they did say to come back so that gives me hope that you had good luck!

    I got DH's khaki suit at Macy's for $150.  I had to open a Macy's card to get an extra 15% discount.  If you have outlets near you, I think we saw some khaki suits at a Banana Republic outlet during our search.
