3 Groom Suit Ideas for Your Dream Wedding

Wedding day isn’t just about the bride, the modern wedding features a dapper groom more than ever. You want to look and feel your best on this day. For a groom, choosing the right suit or tuxedo is very important. It should be comfortable, and stylish and match the theme of the wedding. Having styled several hundred grooms over the last 15 years let me share my top three looks for your dream wedding.

A black tuxedo is the epitome of classic elegance:

It is the perfect choice for a formal or black-tie wedding. Choose a black tuxedo in a classic fit with a satin peaked lapel, black patent leather shoes, and a white dress shirt for a timeless and clean look. Adding accessories like a cummerbund, studs and colorful bow tie are tools used to create a bespoke look that is timeless yet has some edge.

Modern Blue/Navy Suit:

If you're looking for a more modern groom’s suit, opt for a Blue suit. It's a versatile color that can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. A lighter blue suit will suit a more tropical or warm weather vibe. Want to lean in the direction of formality? Stick to a navy with some texture. Cut as a two-piece or three-piece suit, a navy can be one step below the tux in the formality chain and will work well in wine country, city weddings or even a beautiful outdoor setting.

Rustic Linen Suit:

For a rustic or outdoor wedding somewhere warm, a linen suit is a perfect choice. Linen is lightweight and has a casual texture, making it perfect for summer weddings. Often a linen suit will match up to a less formal dress, think beach wedding or casual outdoor vibe. Choose a natural, earthy color like beige or light brown for a relaxed, casual look. Pair it with a white dress shirt and brown leather shoes to complete the rustic look. Stick with classic styling and a trim fit. Allow the color and texture to speak.

No matter which style you choose, make sure it reflects your personality and makes you feel confident and comfortable on your big day. Most importantly work with an experienced tailor to insure whatever you select fits just right. Don't be afraid to experiment with different colors, patterns, and styles. Just remember to choose a groom’s suit that fits you well and complements your body shape.
