    Hey girls,

    Have you seen any pictures of the grooms an guys in grey tux or suits (im ashamed to say that i dont even know the difference!) but our colors are navy (BM dress) oive green and slate grey so i was thinking either to do black tuxes with gray vests or try for the whole grey tux/suit.

    What do you think??

    Here are the BM dresses (in caspian blue):

    I think that would look great! If you are doing tuxedos, I did see a grey one in the Men's Wearhouse selection. I think most tux rental places have a grey option now. I like the all grey tux idea better than the black tux with grey vest.

    Thank you AZbride!  So is there a difference bt suit and tux?  Can they still rent a suit or do they have to buy them??

    Mr. Kitten and his guys wore grey suits from Banana Republic.  They were so cute!  It cost about twice as much as renting a suit/tux but they get to keep them forever!  We also waited for a 30% off sale and paid for a part of each guy's suit as their groomsmen's gift.  All the guys, including Mr. K, loved their suits and were happy that they could keep them!

    There is a difference. A tux has the piping down the side of the pants and the lapels are usually different. Tuxedos are one button and with suits you have options. Tuxedo pants don't have belt loops.

    That Calvin Klein tux that msformalaz posted is the one that my guys are going to be wearing. They've had it at all of the shops I've visited so far and I think they have it at Men's Wearhouse as well, but I'm not certain. If they don't have that one, they should have a similar one. I love your BM dresses and I think they will look great with either a gray suit or a tux. I have a friend who did gray tuxes recently with dark purple bm dresses, and it looked awesome.
