We are having a 4:00 pm beach wedding in June (2nd for me, 3rd for him). My dress will be ivory tea length. Would an ivory dinner jacket with black pants be okay for him or should he wear a suit? He is non-active Navy. Would his dress uniform be appropriate? [:)]

Dear Fordv,

It is just a bit early in the day for the dinner jacket. Plus, it may be too formal. The same goes for his dress uniform. The suit may be best.

Best wishes,

What color of suit would you suggest? Black or would a lighter color work?

I've seen a lot of men wear khaki linen pants with a white linen shirt. Very comfortable and fitting with the beach theme.

Actually, that is exactly what I would have suggested. That attire would fit perfectly with the formality of the event.
