White is the New Black 

Black or white? Grooms can don the quintessential wedding color, too. Kaleb decided to rock both, starting the day in a classic black suit, then switching to a dapper white number post-ceremony. Groom's attire from Milburn Clothing, photographed by Charise Healy Photography at the Royal Club.

Menswear in the wedding industry is getting very fun and unique. Everybody wants something different.

Fancy Footwear

Showcase your personality by stepping outside the box of a typical wedding day shoe. Whether you want to be like Sam and go for a cool pair of Nikes or recreate Russell’s style with sophisticated loafers from Gucci, the options are endless. Below, our groom shines in these Guccis and a suit from the Black Tux, photographed by Anna Pinzari Photography.

To a Tee

A simple black tee has never looked so good. Fashion-forward groom Chris traded his white button-down and dress shoes for this oh-so-cool casual look to dance the night away in comfort and style. Chris dazzled in Milbern Clothing at the Machine Shop, photographed by Aurora Grace Photography.

Head to Toe

If your bride can wear two outfits, so can you. Kenny King, co-owner of King Brothers Clothier and a recent groom himself, chose two looks for his wedding day: A luxe champagne paisley jacquard jacket for the “I do’s” and an exceptional black and silver sparkle jacquard look for the reception, each accented with a posh pair of Christian Louboutins. Kenny's looks from King Brothers Clothiers were a dapper choice to wed at El Chorro, photographed by Shannon St. Clair. 

Outfit changes are an underrated wedding day switch-up. It doesn’t have to be a full outfit change — simply ditching the jacket or swapping out the shirt and/or jacket can accomplish a major tone shift.
