Okay, here is my sharing about “father of the bride wedding dress” :
So, my daughter got married last weekend. As the father of the bride, I needed to choose what to wear. It’s a big deal, you know. I did some research online. A lot of suggestions said if it’s a formal wedding, go for a tuxedo. Casual? A suit will do.
I considered what kind of wedding my daughter was having. She went for a semi-formal outdoor thing. I didn’t want to overdo it with a full-on tuxedo, but a regular suit seemed a bit too casual. I remembered seeing something about how a classic black tuxedo is best for formal attire. But that wasn’t quite right for this situation.
Then, I started thinking about colors. Most guys go for black or navy, which is fine, but I wanted something a bit different. I read that burgundy is a good choice for fall weddings. My daughter’s wedding was in the summer, so that was out.
- First, I tried on a few tuxedos. They looked sharp, but I felt a little too dressed up for the garden setting.
- Next, I looked at some suits. Navy, gray, the usual stuff. They were okay, but nothing really stood out.
- After that, I started looking for burgundy, and it didn’t match my mind.
I spent hours in stores. I tried different styles, different colors. Finally, I found a charcoal gray suit that fit perfectly. It was a good middle ground between formal and casual. I paired it with a crisp white shirt and a light blue tie that matched the wedding colors. It felt right. Not too flashy, but still respectful of the occasion.
On the day of the wedding, I felt good in what I was wearing. I walked my daughter down the aisle, and I felt proud. The suit was comfortable, and I think I looked pretty good, if I do say so myself.
Conclusion
Choosing the right outfit was way harder than I thought. But, it’s all about finding something that fits the vibe of the wedding and makes you feel confident. That’s what I learned, anyway.
