| I'm thinking either a Tan Linnen sport coat and contrasting linen pants, or a J Press Seersucker suitQuestions I need answered:1. I'm assuming "Outdoor cocktail attire" means Jacket and Tie?2. What color pants with a tan linnen blazer? Can I go with a bright color like salmon, or shoudl I stick to navy? Or is some other color ok.3. Is seersucker and/or linnen ok for April in that part of the country?4. If I wore white pants, what could I wear for a shirt? Something light colored.5. Could I just wear a standard grey suit with light shirt and tie or would I really stick out? |

| Okay...outdoor cocktail attire does not require a tie. Sport coat and slacks with an open neck dress shirt is fine. I would not go with white pants...preferably dark with either tan jacket or print jacket. If you can pull off a light colored shirt...fine...as long as it goes with the jacket you choose. Stay away from the standard grey suit....too stiff. Keep your attire smart casual. |

| Tie yesthe bride is the show, don't competekeep it simple; the Tan linen jacket with, creme shirt; muted brown pant with subtle tie would be perfect. You could go brown shirt with creme tie, and lighter pant. but stay neutralCocktail attire means the ladies dress up...so a tie is complementary it says you are dressing to their level. |
