Groom & Groomsmen Outfits: Wedding Suits and Complete Looks

What should the groom wear? Below are 45 complete groom and groomsmen outfits from the Happy Gentleman lookbook: 3-piece wedding suits, linen suits for summer weddings, tweed suits for autumn and countryside weddings, and tuxedos for black-tie weddings. Each look lists the suit, shirt, tie and shoes, and every item can be bought separately.

How to choose a groom suit

Summer and beach weddings: cream, light blue, sage or pink suits, or a linen suit. Linen is light and breathable; a waistcoat keeps the look formal when the jacket comes off.
Autumn, winter and countryside weddings: tweed and herringbone 3-piece suits in tan, brown, green or navy. They look right in a barn, a country house or a church, and they keep you warm.
Black-tie weddings: a tuxedo with a wing collar shirt, black bow tie and patent shoes.
Groomsmen: the same suit as the groom in a different colour, or the same suit with a different waistcoat, tie or pocket square. The groom stands out with a different tie, a flower or a contrasting waistcoat.
Timing: order 4–6 weeks before the wedding so there is time to try everything on and exchange sizes. UK exchanges are free.

Frequently asked questions

What should a groom wear to his wedding?

Most grooms choose a 3-piece suit: jacket, waistcoat and trousers. Choose light colours or linen for a summer wedding, tweed or herringbone for an autumn or countryside wedding, and a tuxedo if the dress code is black tie.

Should the groom and groomsmen wear the same suit?

They often wear the same style so the wedding photos look coordinated, but the groom stands out with a different colour, waistcoat or tie. A common option is the same suit for everyone, with the groom in a contrasting waistcoat.

What colour suit is best for a summer wedding groom?

Cream, light blue, sage green, beige and blush pink all work well in summer. A linen 3-piece suit is the coolest option for outdoor and beach weddings.

What should a groom wear to a rustic or countryside wedding?

A tweed or herringbone 3-piece suit in tan, brown, olive or navy, with brown brogues or Chelsea boots. A pocket watch or a flat cap adds a vintage touch.

Can I order suits for the whole wedding party?

Yes. Each suit is ordered separately, and jacket and trouser sizes can be chosen separately for each person. UK exchanges are free, so order early to leave time for any size changes.

How fast can I get a wedding suit?

Free UK delivery on orders over £49 takes 2–3 working days. DPD Express next-day delivery costs £4.90. Orders placed before 2:00 PM (UK time) are usually dispatched the same day.
