18 Epic Groomsmen outfit ideas for the Groom and his Crew

The groom can most certainly wear a necktie or bow tie that is a different color than the ones that the groomsmen will be wearing. White (and also ivory/off-white) are often popular for grooms because those colors typically complement the bride’s gown.

Wearing a different jacket from the groomsmen is a surefire way to make a mark. For a casual daytime affair (say, at the beach), it’s acceptable for the groom to sport a jacket, while the bridal party wears only the vest and tie. For more a more formal setting, color is an excellent way to stand apart.

The entire wedding party should be color coordinated. So, usually, all of the groomsmen and the groom (all of the men in the bridal party including fathers) wear the same attire and coordinating colors. However, the groom can wear a slightly different style or coordinating color.
