Dark Groom Outfits
Wearing a dark outfit doesn’t always mean you should wear only black or stick to only something whimsical. You can go for modern and minimalist outfits, too, or rock various types of moody colors to create a look. Let’s consider both fantasy and modern outfits.
Dark Fantasy Groom Outfits
Your fantasy look fully depends on the theme and style you’ve chosen: a Viking wedding look can be finished off with fur, chains, a full beard and very rough accessories. A Harry Potter outfit can be done with a cloak, and a Game of Thrones look can be accented with a Jon Snow coat. You can even skip the complete fantasy outfit and stick to a modern suit but with a quirky cover up and accessories, most of grooms prefer this option as it’s easier to recreate.

A modern groom’s look in dark shades is often black on black, though you may consider brown, burgundy, dark green and purple.
