WindsorIf your groom will find more than one future occasion to wear his tuxedo, it makes sense to buy a high-quality, classically tailored tux that will last through the years and never become outdated. In this case, be sure to find a reputable tuxedo shop with a professional on-site specialist who can help you find the perfect suit. Whether you choose to rent or buy, be sure to tell your specialist the date of your wedding and what your overall theme and color scheme is.

Studs & LinksWhile black tuxedos are both timeless and traditional, you will also find white, silver, gray, and even pale shades of color for spring and summer weddings. Pinstriping is a suave detail, and mandarin collars are a great alternative to the traditional collar. Top hats and tails sound interesting?
