Pros and cons of a midweight cotton suit?

I was thinking of dropping a good chunk of change on a custom suit and I've been really liking the look of non summer weight cotton suits lately, basically something like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjalikDUWls. I like the casual vibe and being able to wear the two parts as separates. The only thing is that this will basically be my only real suit, the only other one I own being a not particularly well fitting one from Suit Supply some number of years ago.

I don't work in a formal office so the only occasions I'd see myself wearing a suit would be weddings and concert/symphony halls and stuff like that so I feel like I'd be able to get away with just owning one of these, but would love to hear some potential cons I might be missing.
