Do You Have To Wear a Tux at Your Wedding Reception?
This might be an interesting article topic but believe it or
not, I hear this question a lot. Everything I write will help you decide if you
need to wear a tux at your reception. Keep reading if you have this question.
Should you or should you not wear a tux?
There are a few factors that will play a role in making your decision. First think about how the times are changing. Traditions are being changed every day. On top of changing traditions we are seeing more diverse culture and more diverse couples.
First I want to discuss how changing times are a factor in deciding to wear a tux. There are a few reasons that we are seeing the tuxedo pushed aside. First, suits are getting nicer and nicer. As time goes on we are seeing suits get nicer while tuxedos are staying the same. A Salt Lake wedding photography professional said that both suits and tuxedos look great in pictures. In my wedding I decided to buy a nice suit. The cost was the same as renting a tux but I own it and can wear it in the future.
The second reason tuxedos are being pushed aside is because of culture. Culture plays a huge role in wedding attire and traditions. More often we are seeing grooms wear kilts, lava lava’s or even shorts at beach weddings. This always makes for a fun and unique wedding experience. If you can bring culture into your wedding in any way, I recommend it.
For those who want to be traditional and look classy as ever, stick with the tuxedo. I think the tuxedo is as classy as it always has been. An advantage is that it’s fancy and formal look. A disadvantage of tuxedos is the price and the fact that you usually are renting them for one night. One way you can save money is by the groom wearing a tux and the groomsman wearing regular suits.
A word of warning
I decided to wear a suit in my wedding and reception but I have a very down to earth family. If you are trying to make a decision, keep family at the front of your mind. If you are marrying into a family that comes from an extensive background of money, I recommend staying with a tux. If both families are relaxed, the choice is totally yours.
Make sure you also think of your wedding venue as you make this decision. If you are having your reception in a relaxed and casual environment you can easily get away with wearing a suit. If you are getting married in a fancy and expensive wedding hall, you should dress very classy. You will look back on your wedding pictures for years to come.
If you decide to wear a suit, make sure you wear a boutonniere. Even a simple rose on the breast of your jacket will set you aside from dressing up for church. This is a special occasion and you want to portrait that in your pictures. For more wedding preparation tips go to Salt Lake Photographers. We are here to help with your wedding.
