In its different shades, the blue groom's suit has taken away the prominence of the traditional black and grey suits, because it is an elegant, versatile and very easy to combine colour that adapts well to different types of brides and grooms and styles of celebrations.

What color should the groom's suit be? Is blue the shade of blue you want to wear at your wedding? If you still have doubts about whether or not to use this color, we help you to solve them below.

Blue groom suits

From an elegant navy blue morning coat in cool wool to a modern slim fit suit in cobalt blue, or from a glamorous royal blue tuxedo in satin to a cool duchy blue linen suit for beach weddings, there is something for everyone.

Whether in sophisticated or casual suits, the truth is that a blue groom suit is able to make every groom stand out with his wedding dress, at the same time that matches beautifully with various colors Among them, pale pink, burgundy, yellow and camel, apart from the classic black and grey. And if the suit will be a checkered pattern, green with blue is a good option. Thus, blue is not only possible to exploit its various textures and shades, but also for the multiple combinations it allows.

The different shades will help you to find exactly what you are looking for, for example, a steel blue wedding suit for a winter wedding; a tiffany blue one, perfect for a summer wedding; or another one in metallic blue for a wedding in an urban hotel.

Matching accessories

If you choose a blue suit, some of the accessories of your groom's wardrobe can be chosen to match. There are two recurring options: either you choose a blue suit and waistcoat in the same shade, with shirt and tie in a different colour, or you choose a blue suit and tie or tie in the same shade, while the waistcoat is in a different one. The boutonniere can be matching or contrasting.

Now, if you are really a fan of blue, then you can choose all your clothes in this color, but in different shades, for example, a blue Oxford suit, with a light blue shirt and an indigo blue printed tie. And the shoes? If the marriage is formal, the protocol indicates that the shoes should always be black or, second preference, brown.

Only in more relaxed settings, such as a beach wedding, will blue espadrilles look good. However, if you don't want blue to be the dominant color in your bridal outfit, then choose it as a complementary shade. For example, go for a grey suit with a blue waistcoat and blue flats, or a beige suit with a blue biker jacket and blue boutonniere.

In match with the partner

Whether you will wear the blue suit or just the accessories, it is an excellent color to combine with the accessories with your partner, whether bride or groom. Therefore, if your color will be blue, if it is bride may opt for a nice bouquet of hydrangeas, sapphire jewelry or shoes in blue. While if it is groom, you can go dressed alike or combine only the accessories in the tone, as theboutonniere or tie.

And with the best men?

Since the goal is not to be uniformed, but combined, one idea is that, for example, everyone wears the same blue printed socks, which will allow you to take some fun photos. Or it can also be the same vests, suspenders, belts or humitas, among other accessories. It will depend on the costume you choose and how different or the same you want to look like your best men Another interesting proposal is that you wear a dark blue suit and they wear a lighter shade, so that the groom and his groomsmen can be clearly distinguished in the photos.

Blue will be more fashionable than ever next season, a color that will allow you to go out of your comfort zone, but without risking too much. Are you convinced by these images? Remember to check our wedding suits catalogue!
