Question
I have been trying to decide what I am going to wear for my wedding. It is a beach wedding, and it will be informal. I have an idea in my head but I have not been able to find any pictures of it that allow me to see how it looks. I also have not been able to find the right shirt I want anywhere, all of the Hawaiian shirts are too bright or have to many colors. I was thinking of wearing white Linen pants, and a light blue Hawaiian shirt with white Hawaiian flowers on it. What do you think so far? Now here is the big question. I was thinking of wearing a tan or khaki blazer with the white pants and Hawaiian shirt? Please let me know what you think.

Answer
Hi Matthew,

I think I'd suggest you not wear a blazer.
Most of the pictures you see, show men wearing white linen slacks and a Hawaiian shirt, untucked.  

If you were getting married indoors and it was more formal, then you would want to wear a suit.  

http://hawaiianweddingshop.com/pikakebridal.html is a good site to go to for hawaiian shirts.

Hope this helps.  Please feel free to contact me again if I can be of any further assistance.
