Spring Weddings Part I - Suits & Tuxes featuring Bonobos

Happy Wednesday loves!!  I've decided to do a new Wedding Wednesday series but this time it won't be about my wedding.  Instead it will be all about Spring Weddings!  It's that time of year again when most of the weddings start to take place due to warmer weather or some of you may be starting to plan a warm weather wedding, destination perhaps?


This week I'm kicking things off with suits & tuxes.  Now I don't know about you ladies (and gents) but this was something that was not easy for my husband and I and also something we put off as long as we could.  Personally, I think the suit & tux market for weddings is slim, especially if you go the rental route.  And even slimmer for warm weather weddings.


So when Bonobos contacted me about doing a feature on their new cotton & seersucker suits for Spring, I was thrilled!  Their goal is to make affordable clothing while maintaining a high quality of material and style.

The Foundation Suit in Cotton Navy is part of their new Spring collection.  It's 100% premium cotton twill and is perfect for those warm weather weddings, whether you are part of the wedding or going as a guest, you will be cool and comfortabe!  It also comes in Grey, Olive & Stone.  The stone color is also a great summer option, perfect for a beach wedding!  In addition to the cotton suit is the The Foundation Suit in Blue Micro-Stripe.  This suit is not cotton however it is crafted with Italian Super 110s wool at a lighter tropical weight making it breathable enough for the heat.

If you love the look of The Foundation but are looking to stand out, try the seersucker, also part of Bonobos' new Spring collection.  It comes in classic navy and blue & white stripe.  This might be my favorite of their Spring line.  It screams summer to me!  I can see the groom in a blue & white seersucker and the groomsman in the navy seersucker!  The seersucker also has a vest option if you are looking to add a bit more formality.  Did I mention this suit starts at $400?  Such a great price!

Maybe your are not planning a warm weather wedding or don't have to worry about the heat, Bonobos still has you covered!  Their Capstone Suit is the absolute pinnacle. Crafted from the finest woven wool, this is the top of the Bonobos tailored line and is offered in a legendary four-season fabric.  The Capstone is also offered in a double breasted style which I think would be perfect for a Gatsby themed wedding!

And of course Bonobos carries a classic black tuxedo.  Theirs is a bit more modern with the option of either a gingham lining or polkadot lining (my favorite)!  This tuxedo is perfect for the best black tie affair in town whether as a groom or guest.  Every man should own this tuxedo!


Bonobos also carries an amazing line of accessories including shoes, ties and pocket squares.
