All comes down to the shade of brown but a white, pink, pale blue or grey shirt with a navy or pink striped tie.

Just go into next or matallan and try different colour combinations until you fine one you like.

blue and green should never be seen so you will have to keep away from your wife.

White shirt, let the mrs pick a tie that matches hers. TM Lewin do some nice ones in shades that match most weddingy dresses reasonably well.

Does depend if you've got a dark brown (ok) or biege (gheyness) suit though.

If it is a dark brown suit wear a light brown tie or vise versa if it is a light brown suit - get a dark brown tie. It will look the dog's bollocks.

Break it up with a nice white shirt.

I'd go for a pretty neutral shirt and bling it up with a nice new tie, there's a lot of that nice shade of green about that goes with brown.

Saw some lovely curtains in those colours the other day Very Happy

brown suits are so much nicer than grey, black or blue, never going to be gay enough to pull off white/cream.

i did opt originally for a new suit, probably in grey but when you wear them once a year seems a waste.

its a dark brown suit

Black shirt, no tie. Or if you are handsome, a black round neck tee shirt would look smart too. Thumbs Up

Is the idea that its fancy dress? Soooo 2003, it'll look like a combo set from Asda.

Make sure your belt and socks match the suit colour.

Hmm, Brown suits not everyones cup of tea, but better than a grey/blue/black suit more apt for the office!!

Light brown suit - Pale blue or Pink, plain shirt. deeper pink or blue tie with wide diagonal strips. Tan belt and Tan shoes, TAN though, not beige!!

Dark brown suit - Beige shirt with a pattern in the weave, not different coloured stripes or checks. Gold coloured plain tie. Brown shoes and belt, as close as the suit colour you can get. OR Deep red (burgundy) shirt and tie of the same colour, again neither patterned. Shoes and belt as before.

As its a wedding, Windsor knot in the teie and a french cuff shirt with links or silk knots.

Cinders may then be considered ready for the ball Laughing

This is exacly the kind of thing that gives bikers and biking a bad name!

YOU OWN A SUIT FFS!

A dismal failiure all round, hang your head in shame!

The nearest any, self respecting, biker should ever get to owning a suit, is the one you borrow from a mate for your day in court.

I'm embarrased on your behalf!
