Bridesmaids can wear flight attendent uniforms......
But seriously, I would not do it - but it's your wedding! I've heard about couples getting married at McDonald's because that's where they both work. I think it would fit in better if you had the wedding and reception at the airport - some corporate hangers can be rented for such occasions. if you are planning on getting married in a church, check with the pastor. He/she might have a strong opinion.....especially about the hats......
Peace, dude....

Do you all work for the same airline? Because that would look a little strange to see like 8 different uniforms. The black and blue would clash, as would the silver versus the gold. That's my girl opinion for you. What does your fiancee think of this idea?

So if you and all your fiends where janitors and your life revolved around cleaning up puke would you wear that uniform to your wedding?
The answer is no, no no no! The only people that can wear a uniform to an event like that and not be a tool are Military. Have you run this past your fiancé yet? I'd be willing to bet the response would be an even bigger NO!

If your bride says yes to this, understand that she will secretly resent it for the rest of her life. A strong NO vote here.
My advice, learn the difference between work life and a personal life.
Congrats on the engagement & good luck!
If you haven't done the engagement photos yet, take your uniform and a suit, and have a photo done in both. This way you have a nice picture of you and your bride to be in uniform and you won't ruin her wedding.
