2022 Summer Wedding Colors

While it might seem like wedding dress trends grab all the attention, let’s not overlook the fresh, new looks coming onto the groom’s wedding attire scene. Grooms, groomsmen, and even groomsmaids are no longer expected to play it safe with fashion, and instead, have endless attire options to fully customize their look. 

Curious to know what guys will be wearing down the aisle in 2022? Read on to learn about the on-trend colors being chosen for their big day! 

Earth Tones and Soft Neutrals

Outdoor wedding venues are growing in popularity, and with that, comes new trends in groom attire. Couples are now opting to trade-in wedding halls for the great outdoors, and what better way to compliment your surroundings than with rich tonalities of browns and tans, off-white/bone, and olive green.

While the classic black tux will forever stand the test of time, neutrals are definitely on the rise. The overall wedding aesthetic trend is chic and minimalistic through the use of metallics, clean lines, modern elements, and a neutral color palette. Having the groom and groomsmens’ attire complementary and cohesive with the complete wedding day look is more important than ever. We definitely encourage grooms to step out of their comfort zone and go for the nontraditional soft neutral look.

Velvet

There is something unexpected about a velvet blazer. It will undoubtedly receive a ton of positive attention on the big day! 

Because it’s a richer, thicker fabric, it looks great for outdoor weddings, especially in deep green and dark blue. For those who are having weddings towards early spring, velvet bow ties or accents on shoes can look equally as rich with floral and citrus colors.

Bold Pops of Color

Color is back in a very big way when it comes to weddings in 2022. Not only in floral, decor, and general aesthetic, but also in men’s fashion. 

We are seeing suits in tones of blue from medium to dark navy, deep greens, and also burgundy/purple hues. However, some will tone it down with navy or black pants and let the blazer steal the show, while others are in head-to-toe color. Of course, it doesn’t end with an elegant tux or suit, but the accessories and shoes are also of utmost importance.

Emphasis on Fit

Stuffy tuxedos with vests and bow ties are a thing of the past, and instead, 2022 grooms are all about fitted suits with a sharp tie. Men today have much more interest in their wedding and how they look at their wedding.

No one wants an uncomfortable run-of-the-mill rented tuxedo and instead, they want it to be fitted, they want it to be the perfect length and they want it to be as memorable as their partner’s attire! 2022 is the year of men making fashion statements at their wedding!

Secret Nods to Significant Other

An unexpected trend for the groom’s look is coming up with unique ways to tie in his partner’s look or name into theirs. Grooms are creating a pocket square or jacket lining out of unused dress fabric or having their partner’s name embroidered under their collar for a romantic and personalized touch.

Pocket Square Boutonniere

When it comes to accessories, there’s a question we hear from grooms pretty often: “Boutonniere, pocket square, or both?” The pocket square boutonniere moves the floral accessory from the lapel to the pocket, creating a unique look that’s fresh, fun, and stylish all at once. 

Playful Second Looks

What better way to make an entrance to the reception than with an outfit change? We predict that grooms will be going more cool, casual, and a touch of their personal style when it’s time to dance the night away. Whether it be a custom sneaker from their favorite brand, a swanky white dinner jacket, or leave the suit jacket behind for a fun pair of suspenders or bow tie. 2022 will be an incredible year of wedding fashion, and grooms are definitely going to want in on it.
