Why the Long Tux?

Increasingly I note that wedding parties are foregoing the traditional black tux for a more "informal" look of the black suit and necktie. And why knot (not)? After all, since the average wedding now costs more than $10,000, couples can save money by not renting the tuxes and accessories.

As one groom put it recently, "What's wrong with a black suit?" Saves money, time, and a lot of heartache. I've known more than one couple who had to pay for an extra day or two or rental because they couldn't get the tuxes back within the 24-hour rental period.

Really . . . why the long tux?
