But! I had one detail I did want to share with you. One of the things J and I wanted with the groomsmen was that we didn't want them to wear tuxes. We are not super formal people, so while our wedding does have formal touches here and there, we wanted the men to wear suits and not feel overdressed.
J was in his friend's wedding in March. His friend is also one of his groomsmen. Their wedding gave J and his friend the perfect time to take advantage of the Men's Wearhouse buy one, get one free sale. Apparently, Men's Wearhouse doesn't mind if the two suits are not for the same people. This was great, because J basically got his suit for half price!
Anyway, one idea I wanted to do was I wanted them all to wear similar ties. I really liked the idea of the boys wearing ties that looked close but weren't the same. So, a couple of weekends ago, J and I hit the mall to peruse the sales.
We went to all the big department stores, and all of them were having sales on their ties. I was pretty proud of myself for picking out the ties, because I didn't pull out the ones we'd bought to compare tie color.
They look really good! We haven't decided which tie will go to whom, but I'm pretty sure they will all look snazzy. 
Don't the colors look neat? Additionally, we bought ties for the dads. We are having them wear gold ties. That ties (ha ha) all the colors together. I'm pretty excited to see them on the wedding day!
