2025 Groom Style Guide: Trending Men's Wedding Suit Colors You'll Want to Wear

This year’s weddings are all about celebrating personal taste, sharp tailoring, and just enough color to make a statement, without outshining the bride (let’s not start drama on the big day). Whether you’re getting ready to exchange vows, stand beside your best friend at the altar, or just want to look incredible while attending, it’s time to upgrade how you think about wedding wear.

 

The days of cookie-cutter black tuxes and rigid old-school formalwear are in the rearview mirror. 2025 is about custom-made charm, relaxed elegance, and tones that show off your personality without screaming for attention. We’ve rounded up the suit shades defining this stylish year and how to pull them off with confidence.

But first, let’s rewind a little.

Over the decades, what a groom wears has meant more than just following dress codes. From the structured morning coats of the 1800s to the uniform tuxes of the 1950s, each period left its imprint. Today, though, the modern groom doesn’t follow the rules, he reinvents them. He selects colors, shapes, and fabrics that tell his story.

Cream & White Linen – Reigning Kings of Summer Weddings                                                                  

Cream and white linen suits are dominating the summer scene, especially if you’re saying “I do” with your toes in the sand. They’re breathable, laid-back, and make a clear statement: “I’ve got my life together and I look good doing it.”

Level Up Your Look:  Pair with light-colored, custom-tailored shirts, blush, powder blue, soft green, to elevate the whole look. If it’s a warm day, go for a slim fit linen suit designed just for you. It’s all about cool comfort without compromising style.

Earth Tones – The Guy Who Gets Nature (and Style)

Picture hues like olive, cocoa, or burnt clay, these colors shine at rustic or outdoor venues. They’re subtle but rich, and they look phenomenal in a well-cut slim fit or perfectly tailored ensemble.

Want next-level polish? Go for a handcrafted suit from Brooks Bingham. Earthy never looked so refined.

Midnight Blue – A Smooth Replacement for Black                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       

Think of it as the tuxedo’s cooler, more photogenic cousin. Midnight blue gives off all the elegance of black but with more depth and personality. Whether custom or off-the-rack, it flatters everyone and transitions beautifully from vows to the afterparty.

 

Pastels – Bold in the Softest Way


Pastel tones like lavender, coral, or dusty peach might not be traditional, but that’s the point. These hues make you stand out for all the right reasons at springtime ceremonies. Brave enough for a soft tone? Try a pastel three-piece that balances sweetness with swagger.

Keep accessories minimal: white loafers, simple square pocket folds, and breathable cream dress shirts.

 

Charcoal Gray – Timeless with a Twist

Not as stark as black, but more refined than lighter grays, charcoal is the sweet spot between classic and contemporary. Ideal for urban venues and nighttime events, this shade pairs perfectly with a sleek white shirt or a textured velvet jacket.

With a suit cut to fit by Brooks Bingham, you’ll never feel overdressed or underwhelming.

 

Last-Minute Style Wisdom

Tailoring is everything. Skip the guesswork, go custom. Whether it’s an online made-to-measure order or an in-person fitting, get something that’s shaped just for you.
The right fit makes every color pop. Even a two-piece in a muted shade becomes unforgettable when it hugs you in all the right places.

 Accessorize smartly. Let your suit do the talking, and let your shoes and extras quietly support the conversation.

Whatever tone you choose, wear it with certainty. Confidence is the sharpest thing you can put on.
