We are tracking two contrasting trends for 2025: earth tones and bright colors. Earth tones include shades of brown, dusty greens and desert colors. Happy, bold colors are fun because you can pair a bright blue suit with a berry-colored tie, and it will perfectly complement the lively décor at the wedding.

Whether it’s for pockets or flower-draped lapels, men’s boutonnières have evolved into beautiful, fashionable floral trends.

It’s always a delight to see grooms in classic suits, with their choice of flowers serving as the perfect accent to their ensemble. This simple addition can make a significant style statement.

We recommend keeping outfits monochromatic, like an olive-green suit with a sage green tie, or keeping the look all within the earth tone family, like a brown suit with a terra-cotta tie.

Men need to be camera-ready, too. It is a big day for them, so having a professional to ensure you are camera-ready is a game changer. We take care of grooms from head to toe, including hair styling, facial blemish concealment, color correction, shine reduction and final wardrobe check.

The attire sets the tone for the style, period. If you are going for something casual, then less structured and movable hair is a good fit. For formal attire, a structured, sleek hair style complements the overall style of the event.

“When it comes to choosing wedding-day attire, one thing men should do is consult an expert,” says Lauren Dorta of Friar Tux. “There are some nuances that aren’t obvious, like the fact that no one should be more formal than the groom (e.g., a father who wants to wear a tuxedo, while the groom wants to wear a suit) or making sure the groom and groomsmen are wearing vests under their coats so they still look styled once they take off their coats.”
