Looking for help with a groom outfit
The wedding is in a couple weeks and is non traditional and casual. The bride is wearing lilac overalls like these: https://goddessgear.net/collections/linen-hemp-and-organic-cotton-overalls-by-goddess-gear/products/cropped-hemp-and-organic-cotton-overalls. What kinds of outfits would go well with that?

cord suit in a brown/green could be good but a couple weeks isn't long to find something. What do you already own and what is your budget?
additionally, are you looking to shop online or in person? Are you in a major metro area?
I'm close enough to a city to look in person, and online works as well. I'm not concerned about the budget at this point.
I tried looking for overalls that don't give the vibe of 'just came home from my job', but I can't find any that aren't denim or filled with cargo pockets
please provide an actual budget because "I'm not concerned" is items that are well over $1500
Haha good point. Preferably less than $500
If you want overalls, then Engineered Garments and Nigel Cabourn have often made mens overalls in non-traditional/fun fabrics that you might be able to make work. These would be available on ebay/Grailed at less than $500 - but the key with these would be styling them to get out of "workwear" territory - though they'll remain really casual, and a couple of weeks is a tight turn around.
This is me in some Nigel Cabourn overalls that are probably still a little too jobsite for you but as an example.
I don't know if they have a US presnce (probably), but Lucy and Yak do some stuff that might work, their sizing is basically unisex.
