The Gentleman’s Wardrobe Survival Kit for Getting Married

Memorial Day signals the start of summer wedding season and this is your year. You’ve found the person you want to spend the rest of your life with and now you want to dress right for each occasion leading up to the “I do” and beyond. Whether this is your first marriage or your next, you need the Gentleman’s Wardrobe Survival Kit for getting married. Besides your wedding tuxedo or suit, there are a few key wardrobe elements to help you stand out from the crowd as both a sharp-dressed man and the groom-to-be.

Cufflinks

Yes, you need a stellar pair of cufflinks to show the world that both you and your shirt are one-of-a-kind. What better way to show off a world-class dress shirt than a complementary couple of cufflinks. Monogrammed cufflinks, ala Frank Underwood-style, also add an air of confidence and personal investment.

Suspenders

A finely-crafted leather belt is a staple of your wardrobe, but what about suspenders? The first rule of wearing suspenders is to never wear a belt and suspenders together. Choose suspenders to pair with a beautiful suit for an exceptionally tasteful look.

Neckties, bowties, and scarves

Wearing an open-collar shirt may be appropriate on your honeymoon, especially in a tropical climate. For your engagement pictures, pre-wedding parties, and rehearsal dinner, have a suite of neckties and bowties to consider that can elevate your upper attire. If your wedding is in cooler weather, you may want a linen scarf to protect your throat from the chill.

Pocket circles and pocket squares

Nothing makes a suit catch a lady’s eye more than an accent pocket circle or pocket square to fit your attire. Plan your wardrobe with pocket squares that complement your collection of neckties and bowties. You want a color palette that’s versatile enough to create eye-opening impressions.

Handkerchiefs

Remember, a handkerchief is not for the gentleman; it’s for whomever the gentleman lends it. A light-colored cotton handkerchief can be the perfect touch of class for your bride as she tears up or for your best man as he gets the proverbial dust in his eyes at the rehearsal.
