The Groom's Tuxedo

Next is my groom's attire. Jaylu is torn between wearing a Barong or a Coat and Tie. One consideration is the attire of the whole entourage. He is worried that our male entourage is going to have a hard time looking for their suit. Unlike with Barong, it is simpler to instruct them to just rent or buy a Barong, no need for color coordination since most Barong's are either white or off white. But deep in my heart he wanted a suit. For one, because it is not usual that he wears suit and our wedding day is very special so I wanted him to feel that this is his day too so Ill support him on whatever he prefers.

Then as we all know, Suit is more expensive that Barong. But beacuse it will be Ate Dayin who will take care of our wedding attire, and the owner of the tailor shop is my brother's family in law, we were able to get a big discount :)

During the meeting, Jaylu was able to try on some Coat and Tie, and yes, he is so pogi on it which encouraged him to go with the coat and tie. I admire his body structure because he is not on the bigger scale and not on the lighter scale, well before he is so payatot during our college days but not anymore, he is now on the average scale. (syempre love your own.hehehe) We showed to Ate Del his peg, I did not know that mabusisi din pala ang Coat and Tie. So i just let Ate Del and Jaylu discussed the details of it. Our package already includes the pants, the longsleeves, the vest, the suit and the bow tie.

And to address his concern on our male entourage, I was able to find a suit rental for a very cheap price. Only 300 per suit :) So what we are planning to do is to get the measurements of our male entourage and we are the one who will pick up the color and the design of their suit so it will be uniform for all, I will just provide the neck tie which is according to our color motiff, all the boys are going to wear a neck tie, only Jaylu will wear the bow tie so people will distinguished him as the groom. We got the suit rental on a package basis that is why we got big discount. As for our male principal sponsors, we are thinking of letting them wear Barong, we dont want to require them wearing Coat and Tie, it might sound demanding and we also dont want their suit in different shades, so to be uniform, they will just wear Barong, all in white or off white color.
