been to one wedding in which the groomsmen and groom were in uniforms, the bridesmaids and bride were in tradiational dresses. Different companies, different colors (blue vs black, gold vs silver) but it didn't "clash" to much. The wife was alright with it (as i know) and things went off well....Your wedding though my friend, congrats, and keep ur lady happy...it'll lead to longer happiness on your end.

Getting married this spring. Since my entire life revolves around me being an airline pilot and since the wedding party are airline pilots too, we were thinking of having everyone dress in their respective uniforms for the wedding instead of tuxedoes and dresses. (cheaper to do it this way too)
What are your thoughts?

Yeah...probably not a good idea...
My buddy did his rehearsal dinner in a hangar with (obviously) an aviation theme. That was pretty classy...there was a 172 in there, a couple King Airs outside, and we flew a Seminole to the place, so all the family from out of town got to see what he does and what airplanes he flies...pretty neat. (He's a CFI at the moment) We had a bunch of simple R/C planes and helicopters there for people to fool around with, a paper-airplane contest...stupid stuff like that. It was a good way to incorporate aviation into the wedding without making it cheesy...until all of us groomsmen got a picture with aviators on :-D
Oh yeah...he and his bride left the wedding on a helicopter flown by one of the groomsmen...that was sweet.

This has got to be just about the dumbest thing I've ever heard of. Getting married in your pilot uniform? Are you going for the old style look or the more contemporary younger pilot? You know, frosted and spikey hair, i-pod and backpack. How about leather jackets? Clip on or zipper tie? Where are you going on your honeymoon, the Holiday Inn in Gulfport?
Too many people seem to be taking this seriously. This is a joke, isn't it? Please tell me this is a joke.

LOL! That's funny because that's exactly what my future mother in law said ("It's your wedding") when we asked about advice on where to have the wedding. I am soooooo lucky to have a future mother in law like that.
