Before you choose the accessories—the dress shoes, the neckwear, or the cufflinks—you need to decide on a color for your wedding suit. Here's why: When you lock in the color, you create a foundation for your wedding outfit.

Obviously, there's a lot to consider when putting together a men's wedding outfit. If you're game for guidance, read on for specifics and recommendations for nailing your look.

Men’s Wedding Suits in Blue

Whether it’s the standard navy or a vibrant blue, you can’t really go wrong with a blue wedding suit. They work equally well with black or dark brown shoes, and help your wedding colors pop by bringing out the color in your outfit’s accessories.

If you’re traditional, a navy suit will soften your wedding outfit without making it too casual. A true navy men’s wedding suit is typically a pretty dark shade, so this works especially well for weddings that start in the evening and extend into the nighttime.

 

Black Leather Shoes - The Black Tux

While navy suits are a great choice for formal weddings, the right accessories can keep your look approachable. Black shoes will dress a navy suit up, while brown shoes will give any outfit anchored by a navy suit a more casual feel.

Blue Suit Outfit - The Black Tux

Blue Wedding Suit

One benefit to wearing a blue men’s wedding suit is that it will complement any color you choose to pair it with — even black neckwear or shoes gets a boost from the blues. Because it's bit brighter than its navy counterpart, the blue suit appears more saturated and lively. That also makes it a more casual choice than navy, and a better choice for daytime weddings.

 

Wine Stripe Necktie - The Black Tux

When choosing accessories for a blue suit, you can either go big on color, or pull back in favor of monochromatic blues and greys with muted tones and patterns. Sometimes you can do both, as the necktie above demonstrates.

Men’s Wedding Suits in Grey

Grey wedding suits are a staple — formal but not stuffy, and dressed down with little effort. Still, it’s important to choose the right shade of grey for the season, time of day, or overall style of your wedding.

Charcoal Wedding Suit

Like the navy men's wedding suit above, charcoal is a traditional suit color that’s great for formal and evening weddings that aren’t quite formal enough for a tuxedo or black tie dress codes.

The dark charcoal color means a crisp white dress shirt will really pop, but you can still see this fabric's texture which makes it a little easier to wear than a full-on black suit. Charcoal is also great in the fall and winter, especially paired with a vest.

Grey Wedding Suit

If you’re looking for versatility—a suit you can match with anything—grey is the way to go. It’s equal parts formal and casual, and the medium grey works for both daytime and evening weddings. The grey suit gets the green light for any season — it can do it all.

While we love a blue-on-grey palate, you can pair just about any hue (and even more grey if you want) with a grey suit, with no fear and zero regrets.

Light Grey Wedding Suit

There’s something breezy about a light grey suit. It gives your look a chill, whimsical element to your look that’s perfect for a wedding. It shows respect for the occasion but embodies how relaxed and ready you are.

Light Grey Herringbone Dress Sock - The Black Tux

Light grey is best for daytime weddings in the spring and summer, and it’s the perfect option for a rustic men's wedding suit. Light grey also invites the use of color or pattern in your accessories choices.

Men’s Wedding Suits in Tan

Allow us to introduce you to the ultimate in summer men’s wedding suits—the tan suit. If this is a beach wedding, a tan suit should definitely be on your wedding attire short list.

Mojave Tan Linen Suit Outfit - The Black Tux

Tan would also be a solid suit choice for any spring or summer wedding, or for a destination wedding in tropical climates. Like light grey, its tan fabric will keep you cooler in the sun than say, a charcoal or navy suit. Browns work well together, but for a bold contrasting look, try black accessories with a tan suit.

Men’s Wedding Suits in Black

While the classic black tuxedo shines in basic black and white, you’ll want to use more color—either with your dress shirt or accessories—if you’re set on a men's wedding suit in black.

Essential Black Suit Outfit - The Black Tux

This is probably not the best option for spring or summer weddings. As the saying goes, a hot man in a suit is an angry man in a suit, and if you do opt for this suit in warm weather, skip the vest.

Matching Your Groomsmen

Your wedding day is a big deal, so choosing men's wedding suits for your groomsmen is too. If you want to coordinate your look with the wedding party, that often means renting, (which may or may not give you anxiety).

First, you and your groomsmen don't have to wear matching outfits. Instead, your looks can complement one another with accessories (neckties vs. bow ties, pocket squares, dress shirts, etc.) paired with the same suit. Learn more about choosing groomsmen suits here, or watch the video below for a primer.

 

And renting a wedding suit? That used to make us anxious too, which is why we changed it.

We design our own suits and tuxedos with higher standards and a better, modern fit. Plus, we make it easy to choose men's wedding suits for your entire wedding party, help them find their perfect fit, and track their orders entirely online. (Oh, and we deliver.)

Whether you're looking to rent or own the suit, we've got you.
