What should you wear to a wedding?

What should you wear to a wedding?

Nowadays, deciding what to wear to a wedding is not as simple as it used to be. One thing men need to remember is that weddings come in many forms - religious or civil, day or evening ceremony, formal or casual celebration, themed or unthemed? Whether you are the groom or a guest, these are just a few factors to consider and keep in mind. Ultimately, one of the biggest questions becomes, so what should one wear?

If you are the groom, you and your bride can certainly set the tone for your wedding, including a dress code that you and everyone else should abide by. If you're sticking to tradition and celebrating your big day with a formal evening event, it's a good idea for the groom to meet the bride at the altar wearing a classic black or white tuxedo jacket paired with black tuxedo pants. Depending on your preference, you can choose a three-piece tuxedo and complete the outfit with a white or black bow tie and a chic corsage.

Now, if your wedding is still an evening wedding, but slightly less formal, a suit and tie will definitely work. To maintain the solemn feel of your wedding, you'll want to stick to classic colors, including black, charcoal, or navy. Complete your wedding attire with a solid tie in a matching color (including black or white), and an optional pocket square or traditional corsage.

Of course, we all know that weddings aren't always an evening celebration. If your wedding is a traditional ceremony that takes place in the morning, then a traditional and appropriately named morning gown will be the best choice. Wear a black, gray or blue morning coat for a dramatic figure.

These days, it's not uncommon for weddings to take a modern or more casual format - whether it's a simple civil ceremony at a town hall, a casual seaside ceremony, or a low-key lunchtime celebration. Depending on how informal your wedding day is, a suit in the right color and fabric is usually your best choice. For example, if you decide to have a beach ceremony, a beige linen suit without a tie will be perfect.

The great thing about being a guest is that while you must adhere to the designated dress code, you can take a more laid-back approach and have fun dressing up. If you are attending a formal ceremony, feel free to wear a tuxedo in a less traditional fabric or color.

No matter what you decide to wear on your wedding day or to a wedding, the most important thing is to feel good and confident in your outfit. Afterwards, forget what you were wearing. Focus on the importance of the occasion and enjoy the moment.
