What Is Spring Wedding Attire for Men?

Spring brings warmer weather, which means more outdoor weddings. You'll want to keep the rising temps (along with the wedding dress code) in mind when shopping for a men's spring wedding suit. Linen suits take the place of wool and flannel ones this time of year, since they're more lightweight and breathable. "I also love that they can easily be dressed up or down," says Goldman.

Goldman notes that while you should stick to lighter fabrics, you certainly aren't limited in your choice of color this time of year. Men's spring wedding suits come in a wide array of pastel shades which are perfectly on-theme for the season. You can also embrace floral prints in every part of your spring wedding men's attire–shirts, suits, ties and other accessories, the whole nine yards. For those who prefer to go the more traditional route, not to worry. Light neutral shades, like khaki and grey, are perfectly acceptable for spring as well.

Men's Formal Spring Wedding Attire

No surprise here, but for a formal wedding in the spring, you should plan on suiting up. Like we mentioned above, suits made from lightweight materials like linen and cotton are best this time of year, but you could also opt for a seersucker suit if you want something a bit more unique. Elevate your look with seasonal accessories, like a floral pocket square or a bright colored tie. As for footwear, dress shoes are strongly encouraged. Your classic black or brown pair should do the trick.

Men's Casual Spring Wedding Attire

Good news for all you laidback lads: You don't have to don a coat and tie for a casual spring wedding. In place of a suit, your men's wedding guest attire for spring casual weddings may include lightweight, flowy trousers or chinos. You can pair them with a knit polo, a denim shirt, an oxford shirt or even a light sweater. If you do prefer to wear a suit, go for a less formal one (just leave your tie at home and consider any of the aforementioned shirts for underneath, instead of a traditional button-down). Also, you should skip the dress shoes for this type of event and go with a pair of loafers or sleek, clean sneakers instead.

Spring Wedding Groom Attire Ideas

If you're the one walking down the aisle for a wedding this season, there's undoubtedly a bit of pressure to find the perfect look. After all, all eyes are going to be on you for the ceremony. Don't stress. Regardless of your dress code–black tie, formal, or even a dressy-casual destination wedding–we've got you covered with some of our favorite spring wedding outfit ideas for grooms.

Spring Wedding Guest Attire Ideas

Dressing for a spring wedding as a guest is a little different than dressing as a groom. On one hand, there's less pressure as you won't be the one walking down the aisle. On the other, you still need to show up looking your best (without showing up the person getting married, of course). Some of our favorite spring men's wedding guest outfit ideas for guests will help you strike that balance.

Size Range: 38–54

Blue Herringbone Dress Shirt

Size range: S–XXXL

Tips for Choosing Spring Groomsmen Attire

Are you suiting up as a groomsman this season (or selecting outfits for your wedding party)? Keep a few of our favorite tips in mind as you piece together your spring groomsmen attire.

• Accessibility is key: This isn't seasonal advice but it bears repeating: whatever your groomsmen will be wearing needs to be accessible. This pertains to both price and availability. Be sure that the suit you'd like to see your guys in isn't outside anyone's budget, or on the verge of selling out.
• Pick a color: Groomsmen suits tend to skew simple. It's not a hard rule or anything, but you're generally going to have them dressed in a neutral such as gray or navy. The way to make the look pop is to add a pop of color by way of a coordinated accessory like a tie or pocket square. The color can be a seasonal favorite or one that connects to the colors of your wedding.
• Add accessories: You can also bring a seasonal touch to your groomsmen's suits with the right spring accessories. Maybe this means a knit tie instead of a silk one, or boutonnieres that use spring blooms. Your interpretation of it is what will make it special, so use this as a chance to let your creativity shine.
• Suits aren't required: If you're having a wedding with a more casual dress code or inviting your groomsmen on a destination trip, it's totally cool to ditch the suits. Instead of that look, you can go with anything you want that feels appropriate to the season, location, and occasion. Matching knit polos? Go for it. Coordinated linen camp collar shirts for a beachfront wedding? They'll look great. This is a great opportunity to think outside of the sartorial box. Take advantage of it.
