I'm getting married late in May, in a very non-traditional ceremony. Having trouble finding the right suit for me. Looking for something 40s, and I'm open to pretty much any colors. Any tips on where to look, in addition to Loungers looking to off-load a suit, would be much appreciated.

According to the gentleman at Nordstrom's I wear a 38R jacket and 36R pants.

Also, no tuxedos. Like I said, non-traditional!

If you're getting married pre 6pm, this modern notion of black tie ("tuxedos") being worn would certainly be non-traditional.... ;)

A suggestion on sizes: if you're a modern 38 in a jacket, look fro a 40 in most vintage, especially pre 1960...

Thanks for the tip. I'm not disinclined to wearing a tux, its just that everybody else is dressing down. My fiancee is not even wearing a traditional wedding gown, more like a summer dress.
