]My Fellow Sailors;
I need any and all advice you may have to offer.
Here is the situation; My bride wants me to wear my uniform to our wedding. Our date is set for late August of 2010.
Here is the problem; I can't decide which of my formal uniforms I want to wear. The real diffculty here is that my groomsmen will be a mixed group, some civilian, some Navy, one Coast Guard, maybe one Marine, and even my best chick-friend from highschool. My bride-to-be would like it if I wore my Full Dress Whites and my concern with that is the white of her dress might not be the same as the white of my uniform, and that makes for alot of whiteness in all the photos.
Personally I'm leaning towards Full Dress Blues, that way I can have my civilian groomsman wear a long black tux with a straight tie (not a bow tie) and come close to looking similar. But I'm worried that Full Dress Blues won't be formal enough.
So in summery, I have a rough idea what I'd like to do, but again, I welcome any and all ideas, comments and questions.
THANKS FOR YOUR TIME!
