How Can We Save Money on the Guys’ Attire?

Q. How Can We Save Money on the Guys’ Attire?
A. First, you must consider where the vow renewal will be held and how formal the celebration will be. There are a number of fashionable options for the guys today.

For more formal ceremonies:

• Have the guys wear suits and white dress shirts they already own and add matching ties.
• If the guys don’t have suits, consider buying them since you can often get very nice ones for a cost similar to renting.
• Pair a traditional black tuxedo with a modern shirt and tie.
• If you need to rent tuxedos or suits, see if how many you need to order to get one free. Feel free to decline the shirt, shoes, cufflinks, vests, cummerbunds, and ties if the guys already own them. Be sure to ask for some type of discount if you don’t need the full package.

For a more casual vow renewal:

• A nice pair of slacks, dress shirt, and tie are a great option.
• A crisp pair of khakis and a white shirt also look great, especially on the beach.
• For a backyard celebration, a short sleeve button up shirt or dressy t-shirt can be perfect.
• If you’re going with a really casual celebration, even nice shorts and a short sleeve button up shirt or dressy t-shirt can be perfect.

The most important thing to keep in mind is that everyone in the vow renewal party’s attire should be of the same level of formality. For example, sundresses and shorts, formal long gowns and tuxes, or simple gowns and dress pants with shirts and ties (jacket optional).
