Groom suits

Groom suits can adopt different styles depending on the degree of formality required. Whatever your choice, it should be perfect for you. And it is that, logically, that day you will be more in the spotlight than any other.

Discover the different wardrobe options you have for your wedding day, from three-piece suits to the traditional morning suit, passing through the tuxedos: an option on the rise in groom suits.

Three-piece suit

The most common choice of the bride and groom are the classic suits. Both light and dark colors are used. But you should keep in mind that dark suits (in navy blue, gray or black) and plain are considered more elegant. As for the type of buttoning, better simple than double.

Vests also play an important role when it comes to taking a suit out of office territory and earning points for elegance. So dark three piece suits with white dress shirt are a great idea.

Compared to the morning suit and tuxedo, a three-piece suit is less formal, but that does not mean that footwear and tie can be chosen lightly. The occasion calls for dress shoes and a traditional wide tie (Save the skinny ones for more informal occasions).

Country wedding

Continuing with the classic costumes, when the wedding is in the country, they often opt for a somewhat more relaxed look. The fundamental pieces are the jacket, the shirt and the tie. The rest of the elements tend to relax a bit, but not too much.

They wear full suits, but it is also common to see blazers with dress pants. If you decide to create a more relaxed look for your country wedding, you can use more robust footwear, such as brown brogues. As for the fabric of the suit, in this context shades of brown, checkered prints and matte fabrics are suitable.

Tuxedo

Also called a dinner jacket or tuxedo, the tuxedo is a semi-formal option for your wedding, since it is less formal than the morning suit, but more than an ordinary suit. Although it is an evening dress, more and more grooms use tuxedos to get married in the morning.

For your wedding, consider a black or midnight blue tuxedo jacket (preferably the latter). Underneath, he wears a white shirt with an English collar and double cuff with cufflinks (plain or with some kind of decoration on the front), a waistcoat or sash and a bow tie in the same color as the jacket. Add some black oxfords (other styles may work as well, as long as they are not brogues) and pants with side bands at the bottom.

White tuxedo jackets are acceptable. At some weddings, the bride and groom choose a white tuxedo jacket to differentiate themselves from their guests. Jacquard and burgundy or bottle green velvet are other options worth considering for the jacket. However, in weaving issues it is necessary to adapt to the time of year. In summer, you will want light fabrics for your groom suit.

Chaqué

In the most formal and traditional weddings, the white tie dress code is imposed, which implies using the classic jacket.

The top part of the morning suit consists of a white shirt with an English collar and double cuffs with cufflinks, a silk tie, a simple or double-breasted light vest and black or gray jacket with back skirts. At the bottom, gray or gray and black striped trousers with darts are worn, while the appropriate footwear is black Oxford shoes.

Classic patterns are acceptable as an alternative to solid colors. Consider the crow's foot and tang. You can even use pictures as long as they are refined. As a gala garment that it is, the patterns of the morning suit must be in harmony.

A series of accessories can be added to the jacket. We talk about gloves (if the time is right), top hats, dress watches, pocket squares and boutonniere. As for these last two accessories, they are sometimes worn together, but it is advisable not to use a scarf and flower at the same time.

The other clothing of this dress code, the tailcoat, is reserved for the night or closed places. The morning coat is the daytime dress garment, while the tailcoat is the evening dress. It should be noted that currently the use of the morning coat at weddings is a minority. In addition to being one of the groom's suits, this formal attire is also used at Ascot races and official ceremonies.
