Choosing the Perfect Suit: A Groom's Guide to Saying "I Do" in Style (Without the Stress!)


Let's face it, grooms - wedding planning can be stressful. Between venue tours, catering tastings, and navigating family dynamics, finding the perfect suit sometimes feels like an afterthought. But fear not, future husbands! Choosing your wedding attire can be a fun and rewarding experience.


At The Wedding Hand, we understand the pressures of planning a dream wedding, and we're here to help you navigate every step, including finding the suit that makes you look and feel like a million bucks on your big day. So, grooms, grab a glass of (non-staining) scotch, relax, and let's dive into the world of wedding suits!


Tip 1: Consider your style

Are you a classic gentleman who loves a timeless tuxedo, or a trendsetter seeking a bolder statement? Maybe you're somewhere in between, preferring a tailored suit with a modern twist. Understanding your personal style will guide you towards the perfect silhouette and colour palette. Don't be afraid to experiment, but remember, your comfort and confidence are key.


Tip 2: Formal or informal?

The formality of your wedding will largely dictate your suit choice. A black tuxedo is the epitome of elegance for black-tie weddings, while a charcoal or navy suit offers a slightly less formal feel. For outdoor or beach weddings, consider lighter fabrics and colours like linen or seersucker.


Tip 3: Coordinate with your bride or groom

Ensure your suit complements her dress, without overshadowing it and make sure it doesn’t clash with the bridesmaid dress! Consult with her about colours and fabrics to make sure you’re on the same page.


Tip 4: Accessorise

The right accessories can take your suit from ordinary to extraordinary. A carefully chosen tie or pocket square can add a pop of colour or personality. Don't forget the finishing touches like cufflinks, a boutonniere, and (of course) a pair of well-polished shoes that complement your suit. The details matter in your outfit, from your socks to your tie clip, every detail matters. Choose accessories that reflect your personality and wedding theme.

Tip 5: Don’t forget the groomsmen

Choose a suit that your groomsmen feel comfortable and confident in. They should complement your look, not compete with it, and they should complement the bride and bridesmaids as well, certainly not overshadow them.


Wedding planning doesn't have to be stressful, especially when it comes to your attire. With a little guidance and these handy tips, you'll be saying "I do" in a suit that reflects your personality and leaves a lasting impression.
