The Groom in White
While your guests shouldn't be wearing any shade resembling white to your wedding, there's no rule that says the groom can't be in white too.
Incorporate one (or more) of these unique touches into your wedding day look.
Of course, you're going to look stunning at the altar. And while all eyes turn to the bride, the groom gets his fair share of attention too. So finding your groom's style is just as important as finding your own. But where to start? We'll always love a classic tux, but some trends shouldn't be discounted when it comes to groom style. We've rounded up the best new groom trends to get you your guy looking just as sharp as you.
We're only half way through 2018 and already we're seeing some seriously stylish grooms. We saw men pushing the typical wedding-day boundaries with fashion hats, sparkly shoes, and unexpected suits. There is a fresh take for the destination groom by pairing a navy sport coat over an all-white outfit. Some grooms opt for classic tailoring in new colors, others are in denim, T-shirts, or sneakers. And for a wedding with two grooms, explore coordinating looks.
A classic black tux is the easiest way to look undeniably sharp, but we'll always suggest a touch of personality on the big day. Below are some of our favorite groom trends to inspire you and your future husband.

Shorts Suit
For his Marfa wedding, this groom went for casual-meets-formal in a location-appropriate shorts suit. While the bride's oversized flower crown drew attention, so did the groom's accessories—especially the red Toms shoes.

Preppy Prints
Grooms are having fun with prints in accessories, pants, even a print shirt under a solid suit. We love this preppy take for a more casual wedding. Imagine the fun the groomsmen can have with this?
