Men's Wedding Suit Trends 2025

Getting wed in 2025 and looking for some inspiration? As self-proclaimed industry experts (hey we have been doing this since 1989!) we know a thing or two about wedding tailoring, and one thing we know for sure is that Grooms are stepping up their style game. The focus has shifted beyond just the bride's attire; family and friends are also excited to see what's on the fashion menu for the men. In 2025 we see the focus shift towards outfits that reflect personal style and distinctiveness. This guide highlights the key tailoring trends that will dominate weddings in 2025. 

Suit Styles Reigning Supreme in 2025

The Modern Classic Suit: A Timeless Twist

Classic simple suits are getting a fresh update without losing their appeal. Expect to see suits in slim tailored fits in timeless colourways like navy, blue and grey. In 2025 Grooms are seeking to invest in a suit that takes them beyond their wedding day so are opting for simple styles that can be worn to a myriad of occasions for years to come. A navy suit like the Max Navy Suit is the perfect choice for Grooms seeking a modern choice. 

The Double Revolution: Refined and Unique

Double breasted suits are making waves among grooms and wedding parties. This modern design adds a touch of extravagance and confidence. Celebrities like Timothée Chalamet, Michael B. Jordan and David Beckham are all fans of this relatively new style. For a wedding look that stands out, pair a double suit with simple accessories and classic shoes.

Traditional Tweed: A Firm Favourite 

Ever since the rise of Peaky Blinders tweed suits have been a firm favourite amongst Grooms and with the film being eagerly anticipated to be released imminently it's no surprise that tweed continues to reign supreme. In 2025 we see a shift towards more simple tweeds in subtle colourways. Our Kris Silver Grey Tweed Suit is the perfect example of how tweed suits are changing. No longer bedazzled in checks or velvet trims tweed suits are more refined in their style which makes them easier to style beyond the big day.  

Tailoring Trends: Personalized Perfection

Modern Fit vs. Slim Fit: Navigating the Silhouette

It's fair to say that 2024 saw a big shift in the fit of suits. The tailoring industry saw two key groups establish themselves and remain committed to their preferred fit. It’s modern vs slim fit. Modern fits offer a more comfortable loose feel while slim fits provide a sleek tailored fit. The best way to determine the right fit for you is to consider your body type and ensure that the fit you select complements your shape. 

Detailed Accents: Buttons, Linings, and More

As the saying goes “the devil is in the details” and this couldn't be more true when it comes to your wedding suit. Trends in buttons, linings and pocket squares all play a part in your wedding theme.

Detail matters when it comes to suits. Trends in buttons, linings, and pocket squares can transform an outfit. Unique details like contrasting linings or custom buttons can add personal flair. Choose details that complement the Bridesmaids and wedding theme.

Colour Palettes and Patterns: Beyond the Traditional

Shades of Navy, Burgundy, and Green: Rich Jewel Tones

Jewel tones like navy, burgundy, and emerald are popular choices for grooms' suits. These rich colours work well with many skin tones and wedding themes. Pair a navy suit with lighter accessories for a balanced look, or opt for a green suit with black accents.

Subtle Patterns and Textures: Adding Depth and Interest

Subtle patterns such as pinstripes and checks are becoming favoured alternatives to solid colours. Pinstripes in particular are a great option for modern city weddings. Our Rocco Pinstripe Suit ups the style factor with the addition of a double-breasted blazer. This style is a great option for Grooms seeking a more casual smart look. Check suits are timeless and will see you right for years to come. Our best-selling Jenson Check Suit is a firm favourite due to its versatility and modern appeal. 

Matching or Coordinating Wedding Party Attire: Stylish Unity

There are a myriad of options for Grooms and Groomsmen to stand out on the big day. From mix and match ensembles to blazer and chino looks the options are endless. We particularly love the trend of the Groom wearing a different waistcoat to his Groomsmen. It's important for the groom to feel like the center of attention on his big day, and opting for a subtle styling difference can help achieve that! Equally important is coordinating your suit choice with the wedding theme and the bridesmaids' dresses. One of the easiest ways to do this is through accessories. A helpful tip is to bring a swatch of the bridesmaid's dress or a napkin to your suit fitting. Hold your suit options and accessories next to it to see if they complement each other.

Accessories: The Finishing Touches

Statement Shoes: Adding a Touch of Personality

Picking the right pair of shoes to wear on your wedding day is of utmost importance. You’ll likely be on your feet for the majority of the day and then there's the all important first dance! The key to choosing the right shoes for your wedding is to opt for a quality pair of genuine leather shoes. Our Larkin Shoes In Tan and Black are a popular choice thanks to their timeless brogue style. Be sure to buy your shoes at least a few months before the big day so you can wear them in. If you’re looking for something a little different from the norm loafers and boots are a unique choice that pair well with well tailored suits. 

Pocket Squares and Ties: Subtle yet Significant Details

Accessories like pocket squares and ties are essential for completing the look. Opt for colours or patterns that echo the suit, enhancing overall coherence. Mixing textures can create visual interest; for example, a silk tie with cotton pockets square.

Accessories can make or break a look. When choosing your tie or bow tie the key is to look for subtle colours in your suit. Look at the lining, trims and buttons for inspiration on which colour you should opt for with your accessories. If your suit is plain then a patterned tie is theoretically the best option. When choosing a patterned suit, opt for a plain tie or pocket square to avoid a busy appearance.
