Even though it seems that all eyes are on the bride, the groom's attire is just as important. Here are a few things to consider when dressing for the occasion.

A tuxedo should always be worn - the style depends upon the time of day and the formality of the wedding. Tuxedo jackets are generally black, gray, white, or off-white, with striped or solid black pants.

The color and style of any extra accessories should be dictated by the tuxedo. The vest and bowtie (or cravat, if preferred) should compliment the rest of the outfit. However, if you'd like to try something a little more unconventional, it is permissable nowadys to wear a brighter colored tie and cummerbund - so long as they match each other!

The groom's shoes should have little to no embellishment, and are generally patent leather. It is also customary to wear cufflinks, a tie tack, and a boutonniere that matches the bride's bouquet.
