When it’s warm outside, the right fabric is key.
Light materials like linen, cotton, or blends like cotton-linen or wool-linen are perfect choices. These fabrics let the skin breathe and feel comfy even when the heat kicks in.
Linen suits are a favorite for summer weddings thanks to their breezy vibe, though they do tend to wrinkle. Cotton suits are a solid choice for a crisp, clean look with fewer wrinkles. If you like the classic feel of a traditional suit but still want summer comfort, go for lightweight wool or wool blends for a nice middle ground.
I added a few helpful links to visualize and learn more on cotton and linen from Gentleman's Gazette. The Gentleman’s Gazette is your best source for all aspects of classic menswear, etiquette, craftsmanship, and savoir vivre.
 
 
Matching colors can create a polished, cohesive look for the wedding party.
For a summer wedding, lighter shades are a great way to go! Think beige, light gray, soft blue, or even pastels for that sunny-day vibe.
To make the groom stand out, try choosing a slightly different shade or adding standout accessories. For example, if the groomsmen are rocking light gray suits, the groom can go for a darker charcoal gray, creating harmony while still standing out.

I’ve included behind-the-scenes glimpses of the crew getting ready, so you can see how these looks come together. Plus, I’ve added vendor links for easy shopping—visit their website and you’re all set!
Groom’s tip: Don’t forget to ask your photographer to capture those special moments of you and your groomsmen getting ready—it’s a great addition to your wedding timeline.

Sleek, modern suits are a great way to elevate a summer wedding look. Slim-fit suits are all the rage, offering a sharp, tailored style that’s both clean and contemporary.
For an extra touch of class, try a double-breasted suit for a more sophisticated vibe.
Or, if you’re going for a more relaxed look, opt for a casual-cut suit or even a suit jacket paired with tailored trousers. Whatever style you pick, make sure it’s comfortable enough for dancing under the summer sun!

Accessories are the cherry on top of any wedding day outfit.
For a summer wedding, go for light, playful accents like floral or patterned ties. Pocket squares in fun colors or patterns are another great way to add a pop of personality...
And don’t forget about shoes and belts! Light brown or tan leather shoes pair perfectly with lighter-colored suits, and a matching belt can tie the whole look together. Top it off with a boutonniere made from fresh seasonal flowers to add a touch of nature to your outfit.
