Tux Shopping!

This past Saturday was tux shopping day. I trusted my groom to choose his own tux. His parents and brother went with him while I stayed behind with his sister-in-law. I didn't want to see him in a tux yet! I want our wedding day to be the first time I see him in a tux.

Yesterday my soon to be mother-in-law called me to encourage me to go to the tux shop and check out what Brad had on order. She saw what he got but wasn't in agreement with what he chose. Her biggest concern was the color shirt he chose.

So today I went to the tux shop to see what had been chosen.  I didn't like a single thing he picked. I changed everything but his shoes! I changed the tux style, the shirt, the tie and the vest. He had chosen a mismatched tie and vest set. Now in his defense he did have the right colors I had originally told him were his choices. However, after seeing what the colors look like in person I wanted to opt for a different overall look. Well at least it was easy to change his wedding attire. When we saw each other tonight he quickly asked, "now what am I wearing?". Yes, he was aware I had spoken with his mom and was going to the tux shop to check out the colors for myself.

In hindsight I should have gone last week to select the main color instead of giving him the option of 3 different colors to choose from. Well at least I haven't seen him in a tux yet! I only saw the tuxes on display.
