I'm planning a formal wedding in April 2006 and one of our Groomsmen is actually a Groomsmaid. The men are wearing black tuxedos with black vests and a black tie (no bow-ties). I don't want the Groomsmaid dressed exactly like one of the guys but I'd like to put her in something feminine that resembles a suit. I've seen a few women’s tuxedo suits but they look like waiter's uniforms (yuk!). My Bridesmaids are wearing floor-length, black, strapless gowns. She's not a Bridesmaid so I don't want her to wear the same dress as the rest of the girls. HELP! What should she wear?
I would certainly consider a nice black suit for her or a black dress with a different dress maybe something in black and white. Nancy Tucker President of Weddings Beautiful US http://www.weddingsbeautiful.com
Typically, the lady would wear the same dress as the bridesmaids, but in the same color as the men. So, Ms. Tucker's ideas are perfect. Rebecca Black, Etiquette Now
