1. SAY HELLO TO COLOR
Colorful suits are all the craze this season, and for good reason. Swap the traditional black tux for an emerald green, deep purple or mustard yellow suit to bring style and eccentricity to the aisle. Get creative and coordinate your colorful fit with your wedding’s colors or details. Try burgundy or navy blue for a sophisticated formal look and occasion. Wear a light sage green or blush pink suit to match a more casual, laid-back affair. Looking to add even more uniqueness to your fit? Ditch the solid suits as a whole and go for patterns. Popular patterns trending this year include floral, plaid and paisley suits.

2. BRING OUT THE BLACK TIE
On the contrary of the trend of colorful and bold suits are black ties and all-black affairs. The all-black tux, black tie combo gained popularity in 2024 and will remain a hit in 2025. Black ties are effortlessly timeless and can easily pair with a classic formal black-and-white wedding or a wedding with any other color scheme. The black tie is guaranteed to make you look sophisticated and sleek and photographs well. This combo works well for a contemporary and minimalist wedding.

3. FIND FREEDOM IN THE FOOTWEAR
No more are traditional black oxford shoes the standard to wear with suits. This year, find freedom in footwear by choosing shoes that are classy or comfortable to you. Loafers and brogues are becoming more and more popular, even in a variety of colors and textures. Swap black for a shade of brown, guaranteed to be sophisticated but add a pop of style and character to your outfit. Try your loafers in leather or suede to step into trendiness, while maintaining an elegant look. For a more casual or relaxed appearance, go for tennis shoes or even fun socks.

4. PERSONALIZE YOUR CUFFLINKS
Cufflinks are a classic wedding wardrobe staple. Not only are they worn for practical reasons, but they’re also aesthetic. Traditional ones are usually round and made of gold or sterling silver. Change up your cufflinks and add some authenticity by personalizing them. This can be creating monogrammed cufflinks of you and your spouse’s initials or the wedding date, choosing unique shapes or figures to represent something meaningful or sporting bold and bright cufflinks to match wedding colors or stand out!

5. TRY A TEXTURE
Texture on a suit jacket or even a full suit is becoming more and more popular for wedding attire. While the traditional wool texture suit will always be sophisticated and in-style, experimenting with a different texture is a fresh way to show a touch of personality and add fun and grandeur to the occasion. Explore velvet, tweed or brocade textures for winter weddings. Consider lightweight fabrics like linen or cotton for warmer temperatures.
