Of course, the newlywed groom is expected to wear an outfit significantly more formal than that of the other wedding guests. Most grooms choose white shirts for the occasion — and that is unquestionably a great choice. It doesn’t have to be boring, nor does it mean everyone has to look the same at the wedding. The overall appearance can be personalized and elevated through the selection of the suit and accessories. If you prefer to play it safe, a navy suit is an excellent option. However, if you're a bit more daring and it suits your personal style, feel free to go for a blue or grey suit. To complete the look, a classic white linen pocket square is the most formal and fitting accessory for such an occasion. As the groom, it’s especially worth including this element — it adds a refined finishing touch.
Another accessory that can significantly transform your wedding look is the bow tie or necktie. The choice is entirely up to you when it comes to completing your wedding shirt ensemble. A bow tie will naturally draw attention and make a bold statement — perfect if you want a slightly more classic and eye-catching look. On the other hand, if you prefer a necktie, you can add flair by choosing one in an intense color or with a pattern to liven up your outfit. Just remember: your shirt must match the level of formality expected at a wedding. That means: a cutaway collar and if you're wearing a bow tie, it’s essential to choose a shirt with a covered placket — like this formal bow tie shirt.
How to dress as a wedding guest – the shirt
Just like for the groom, a white shirt will also be a good choice for a wedding guest. It clearly signifies the importance of the occasion. Moreover, it matches all suit colors and all skin tones. You can also consider a light blue shirt. This outfit will still be elegant and formal due to the neutrality of its color. It will be especially suitable for a guest who holds a more significant role—such as being a groomsman or the father of one of the people getting married.

Another interesting option for wedding shirts is patterned shirts. The most subtle choices include a fine houndstooth pattern or a very small check. From a distance, these patterns are barely noticeable, and your shirt may appear almost solid-colored. If you're not afraid of more pronounced designs, you can go for a distinct stripe—don’t worry, it’s still a safe and stylish option. But if you really want to stand out and express your personal style, choose something no other guest is likely to wear—like a shirt with floral prints or airplanes.

What to wear in the summer?
Most weddings take place in the summer. Add dancing, alcohol, and crowds — it all makes the heat even more intense. Because of this, some people worry they won’t survive an entire wedding in a long-sleeved shirt. Unfortunately, if you’re wondering whether a short-sleeved shirt is a faux pas, the answer is — absolutely yes! It is completely unacceptable if you want to maintain a classy look, even after taking off your jacket. So, what’s the solution? Choose a breathable linen shirt. This fabric is known for its lightness and high breathability, helping you stay cool and sweat less. Linen is also very gentle on the skin and hypoallergenic. However, keep in mind that a linen shirt is not considered formal, so wearing one may clash with the principles of classic men's elegance. But if the wedding concept allows for a more relaxed approach — for example, a boho-style wedding — then a linen shirt will work very well.
