Well, my future hubby has a very contemporary style and the regular rental tux was not his cup of tea, or mine.
I searched online for different formal looks, and kept coming back to this one. I think it has the right mix of classic with a modern twist because of the bow tie. Funny enough it's pretty much exactly what my dad wore on his wedding day in the 70's. :)
We purchased a traditional tux for him. To buy instead of rent was only a difference of about $100.00. It really isn't much different than one that you would rent except for the fact that it will fit him perfectly. I ordered the oversized velvet bow tie online, and I have to say it looks pretty sharp.
Just thought I would share in case anyone is looking for alternative formal looks for their grooms or groomsmen.
Anywho, onto the real reason I'm here, I think this tux definitely a little classic and a little modern.
