Bbq theme outdoor wedding...need help with the details.

What about slacks, a dress shirt, and suspenders or something similar? I've seen that done a lot for more laid back weddings!

We are very low budget and are doing an indoor BBQ setting. My brother has a friend with a smoker. My fiance and groomsmen are just doing black slacks. White button up T-shirts and ties. I have a light flowy empire waist dress. Doing semi casual dress for guests. It's ur day, do what you want! :-)

Make sure it's catered by a licensed and insured caterer.

Don't self cater like Danielle is suggesting

We won't be self catering. The garden I work for has a list of preferred caterers and although I'm allowed to use an outside caterer, I'm getting a really good deal by using one of them (perks of the job).

My fiancé was thinking of doing the slacks and button ups, but he wants to wear his Nike Air Max shoes -_- (He's a sneakers/cap/oakleys kinda guy)

I figure it is his wedding too and he can wear what he wants, but how do you dress that up?

No, that isn't all we are serving lol. Those are the entrees. I'm not too worried about the food, I was just describing the jist of it.

Will he button the shirt and wear a tie or bow tie? That would dress it up a bit.

Wow, no thank you!! I have seen how hard and efficient the caterers work so I can't imagine doing that on my own.

I think he'd rock a bow tie, what color pants/bowtie do yall suggest?

Maybe khaki pants, white shirt, and a red bow-tie?

By the way this will be an evening ceremony/reception outdoors

I agree with @bkc khaki pants, white shirt, red bow tie

I think he'd like a red bowtie on a white shirt...he is a big Cornhusker fan!

Adorable inspiration pictures, but his taste in football teams leaves a lot to be desired.

LOL, thank ladies!! I think I like the gray pants too...white shirt and his red huskers bowtie! Sorry going to the chapel!

BTW I posted the same pics a whole bunch of times...how do I delete?

Thanks Alyssachu!!

I second the gray pants, bowtie, and suspenders deal. I really like that you are embracing the BBQ theme with the red checkered thing. I think it looks great! And I am so happy you are not self catering! So many people come on here with the "laid back self catered wedding" thing, which is an absolute oxymoron.

@Priscilla do you work at Lauritzen Gardens? Lol you said he is a cornhusker fan

I love the inspiration pics and theme, but as a Wyoming fan, I would have to say no to the red/Huskers lol. But I'm sure he will rock it

I love what you have going on! I like th grey pants, white shirt and red bow tie idea.
