Ordering Groom's Attire
4 Months Before your Wedding: Ordering the Groom’s Attire
With just 4 months remaining to the day when you finally say “I do” to the girl of your dreams, it is time to order your attire. The following seven guidelines are very important and every groom should follow them.
Plan the Budget
The quality of your tuxedo depends on how much money you want to spend. You may want to be a little extravagant with your wedding attire because it is easily the most important day of your life.
Will you only buy your suit or do you want to foot the bill for all groomsmen? If they are paying for themselves, choose a style that they can all afford. Explore the possibility of renting their suits if you are doing your wedding on a budget.
Match the Groomsmen’s Attire to the Theme
The style and theme of a wedding is perhaps the first thing to consider. Do you want a traditional English wedding or a contemporary sporty affair? The venue, flowers, and décor of the wedding should have this taste.
In addition, the style of your clothes should match this. Colors, for example, should add to the look and feel of the wedding. Ensure that your appointed designer is experienced and comfortable with your theme. Ask for past samples.
Let the Groom Stand out
It might be true that the bride is the most important person during a wedding. While her dress should stand out, the groom’s suit should match perfection. Ensure that his tuxedo surpasses the dazzling attraction in the suits of the groomsmen. Simply put, they should not dress up too much to leave the groom dappled.

Offer Varieties to Groomsmen
Your groomsmen are most likely modern and fashion-conscious. They may not like it if you dictate their taste in tuxedos. Instead, consult them to learn what they are comfortable with. Share your thoughts and table various options. Do not give them so much room that there is no consensus in the room.
Consider Non-Traditional Footwear
The traditional footwear for weddings is black leather shoes. This is especially true when they go with a navy suit. It could inject a little more fun if they have something different, modern and eye-catching. When doing so, remember that comfort comes before luxury. Let them choose the option that best allows them to walk and dance the night away.
Match the Style of Bridesmaids
The colors and styles of the groomsmen’s suits should match that of the bridesmaids. This is because each gentleman will be assigned to a lady at the party. You do not want the couple to look odd or unsynchronized as they sit and walk together. Simply put, coordinate the colors between the two groups months in advance.
Personalize Something Special
Your wedding is a special day not just for you, but also for your groomsmen. They have perhaps worn suits countless times before. Let this occasion be different by offering them something special. Customized cufflinks or personalized belts and watches add to the overall look and feel of each gentleman. Ask them for ideas on accessories and finishing touches.
