Many grooms and groomsmen are stepping away from the traditional black tux when it comes to wedding attire. They’ve come to love the idea of being able to dress up and look good in front of the camera alongside the bride and bridesmaids. As the trend of grooms with swag continues to evolve, so does the fashion. If you’re looking to add some personality to your wedding style, these summer wedding groom fashion tips will definitely help.

Grey is the New Black

First, if you’d like to lighten up the color palette for your wedding then go with a grey suit. Grey goes well with rustic themes and is a lot cooler to wear than a traditional black suit.

Soft Neutrals

For grooms who aren’t afraid to wear a bit of color, going with a soft neutral toned suit is going to be your best bet. For example, light tan or grey suit paired with the beautiful pastels of spring works well every time.

Navy Adds Sophistication

If grey is not your color, another suit color that goes great with pastels is navy blue. It’s still a lot lighter than black and pairs well with brown shoes.

Swap Vests for Jackets

Depending on the temperatures when you get married, you could essentially get rid of the suit jacket altogether. As you can see here, these grooms and groomsmen looked absolutely dapper in their vests for the Summer.

Accessories Make the Man

To add a bit more personality to your summer wedding groom fashion you can’t forget the right accessories. Some funky colored socks, cool cuff-links, suspenders, or a spiffy watch will bring your whole outfit together.

So you see, grooms who aren’t interested in the traditional black tux and white shirt can step out of the box for their summer wedding. Grooms can add their own flavor to the mix and still look stunning as he experiences the greatest day of his life. As long as you keep these summer wedding groom fashion tips in mind, there’s no way you won’t look just as amazing (well close anyway) as the bride on your wedding day.
