Should the father of the bride have?

Question

the same tux as the others in the wedding party or something different

Answer 1

Different.  

Parents of the bride and groom and not technically part of the bridal party and shouldn't try to look like they are.

Answer 2

I say same tux but perhaps a different color tie/vest so as to match the Mother of the Bride.  

Answer 3

Different. He and the the groom should stand out

Answer 4

it can go either way, it is up to you.  I would personally go with the same tux but a different tie/vest/cumber bun/etc. to make him stand out.  Perhaps something that matches what the MOTB is wearing, or an accent color.  

Answer 5

The father of the bride almost always wears a black tie/vest w/ his tuxedo.

Answer 6

The father of the bride, and the groom, don't wear tuxes - they aren't in the wedding party. They just wear nice business suits.

Answer 7

Whatever you all decide. You usually see the groom in a white tie/vest, the groomsmen in a tie/vest that coordinates with the wedding colors, and the father of the bride in a classic black tie/vest. But if you want all the men to match, or for your father to match the groomsmen, or for him to wear a coordinating color that he likes, it's completely up to you, your fiance, and your dad.

Answer 8

different

Answer 9

Different.

Answer 10

I think something different but just as nice would be really nice for the father of the bride.
