Mens Wedding Party Attire

All of our guys wore medium gray tuxes and matching vests. My husband wore an ivory tie, and the groomsmen wore pink ties to match the bridesmaids dresses. The pocket squares matched the ties, so my husband's pocket square was ivory and the grooms men's pocket squares were the same light pink as the ties and bridesmaids dresses. I would probably do the rest of the groomsmen in the real color, and have their groom in the white and the best man in pink like you suggested.

Wish I could help you or even have some input. My fiancé still hasn’t decided on best man or groomsmen much less color of suits. I do know he’s decided on a suit vs a tux but that’s about it.

Pocket squares normally match the vest and tie. However, for the best man in our wedding we had him wear a different color pocket square to stand out from the other groomsmen. My husband also wore a completely different color vest, tie and pocket square than the groomsmen and best man. So it ended up being my husband with a black tux, silver vest, tie and pocket square. The best man with a black tux, red vest and tie, and silver pocket square. The groomsmen and bride's man with black tuxes, red vests, ties, and pocket squares. Do you want each groomsman to have a different pocket square?

My husband and his groomsmen wore blush pocket squares from The Black Tux for our wedding!

I'm skipping them.

Contrary to belief, pocket squares should NOT match the tie. It should complement it. So if the groomsmen are wearing a teal tie and vest, you could get a printed pocket square that has teal in it and ties the look together.


Our groomsmen wore black suits with black tone-on-tone animal print ties and a black/teal/green animal print pocket square. Teal was one of our colors and we got married at a Safari Park so it made sense.

View Quoted Comment Yeah I have also heard they aren’t supposed to match, just compliment like you said. i love that!! The only one I see online that has teal is like 4 shades of colors, but maybe theyll have more there, i looove what you did!!

View Quoted Comment Yeah, I originally thought they were supposed to match and was going to do burgundy ties with burgundy pocket squares. Then when we tried it out, it kinda looked boring. Also I didn’t really know what the rules on pocket squares are so I had to google it. Haha


I’ll be honest, the guys accessories was one of the hardest part of wedding planning for me. I almost gave up and was planning on just getting plain white pocket squares.
I found ours at Paul Smith (online) and the ties are John Varvatos (Bloomingdales). So I would definitely check there!

View Quoted Comment Ok Thanks!! Appreciate it!
