Anyone’s FH interested in wearing an ascot tie for the wedding? Or did any of your husbands/groomsmen wear ascot ties? My fiance REALLY wants to wear an ascot (or as he calls it a puffy tie) and I am concerned about how this would look. We have an outdoor ceremony around 4:30 p.m. followed by a cocktail hour and then dinner. Our overall look is elegant but certainly not black tie. I have looked up the “etiquette” and this is usually for daytime weddings and although I don’t consider us having an “evening” wedding our planner keeps trying to keep us from this look. I like the idea … very Hugh Grant & my FH and Groomsmen can definitely pull it off. If you have examples of how this worked/ looked/ details, etc. I’d appreciate. Please post pics.

You wedding planner should be going with what you want; not what she/he wants. We are having our wedding at 1:30PM and my fi and the rest of the guys in the wedding party will be wearing ascots, so I think it is a great idea, as long as it goes with the rest of the look of your wedding. This is what the guys will be wearing:

I think you should let your guy wear what will make him happy. I am assuming you are getting to wear what you want, so he should have say in what he wears too.
