Groomsman Attire - What Groomsmen Should Wear

About this video

The Gazette team provides comprehensive guidance on groomsman attire for both wedding couples planning their parties and groomsmen themselves. They outline key dos and don’ts, including providing specific direction to groomsmen, differentiating the groom from his party, avoiding rental tuxedos in favor of quality suits, and steering clear of overly colored or matching formal wear. The team emphasizes communication, comfort, and ensuring the bride and groom remain the focal point of the wedding day.

Key takeaways

  • The Gazette team argues that wedding couples should give groomsmen specific guidance on attire and consider coordinating through accessories like pocket squares or vests rather than identical full suits
  • The Gazette team recommends avoiding rental tuxedos due to poor materials and fit, instead suggesting quality dark suits that groomsmen can wear again after the wedding
  • The Gazette team advises against colored dress shirts, matching sets of accessories, and overly bold personal styling, recommending instead simple, classic pieces like white dress shirts, neutral ties, and black oxfords to keep focus on the bride and groom
