For the Tall Groom - Loving the Long Jacket
Your wardrobe choice may be limited, but you should never underestimate the difficulty of finding the perfect wedding tuxedo. You have a choice; you can look awkward in your tux, or you can show up as your bride's ultimate fantasy, as an impeccably dressed Cary Grant or George Clooney. With the right tux you can go from being an average Joe to becoming the suave and debonair real-life James Bond.
To look dapper and handsome in your tux, you have to find a tuxedo that complements your bride's wedding attire, plays up your best assets and keeps you feeling comfortable on one of the most important days of your life.

Long jackets make you appear shorter than you actually are, making it easier to understand why most basketball players prefer these long jackets over short coats. Long tuxedo jackets are usually made of satin, and have either a single breasted or a double breasted design.
Choosing Your Long Jacket
Since we're talking jacket length, you have to know that long jackets have different lapel designs. Although lapel styles generally don't matter to grooms, having the right lapel for your long jacket is a great way to bring attention to your upper body. It may not be the most important jacket decision you'll make, but the lapel design can and will affect your suit's overall appearance.
Notch Lapel: The notch lapel has a V-shaped cut where the fabric points inwards right at the area where the lapel and the collar meets the jacket. The notch lapel is a great lapel choice if you're trying to emp
