Summer weddings are very popular due to good weather, much sunshine, warm breezes and not frequent rains. But it’s often rather hot in summer and the tricky thing is to find proper attire, in which you won’t feel too hot and will look stylish at the same time. How to choose clothes that fit your style, colors that flatter you and the fabrics that are light enough for summer?
Colors
A summer groom look is something special, light, airy but elegant and stylish, so I think dark colors are not necessary – choose light grey, white or even cream. There are tons of combos you may create: creamy and light blues, tan and whites or off-whites, greys and whites and much more. You may accent your neutrals with bold colors, too, to make the look more eye-catchy. Bright accents are welcome! Play with prints and colors: Gingham bow ties, bright flowers and boutonnieres, colorful ties and vests – no limits during the hottest time of the year!

Outfits
There are many different options but most summer grooms choose no jacket variants, especially if the wedding is not too formal or a vintage-inspired one. If it’s appropriate, go for shirts with shorter sleeves or at least roll up the sleeves to avoid overheating. An original idea is to wear shorts instead of trousers – the groom won’t feel hot and still look cool! Don’t wear socks if it’s hot, some types of shoes allow that without looking tasteless. Moccasins, sandals of various kinds and some other types of shoes will let you feel comfy and look dapper at the same time. One more idea is going barefoot but it’s suitable not for every location.
