Beach weddings are common during the spring and summer months. If you’re attending a friend’s wedding you probably already know it will likely be warm or even hot – and maybe a little humid, too! As a man, you don’t want to outdo the groom in terms of your attire, but you do want to look good. If you’re going for second best dressed, we have a few tips that will ensure you look good in your attire for a beach wedding while keeping your cool.
Beach Wedding
First of all, ditch the tux. Unless the beach wedding is a formal occasion, you’ll want to go a little more relaxed. What you want to avoid is a silk or wool blend suit, which would be suffocating in the heat. Instead, think unconstructed and lightweight, such as a suit crafted of linen, cotton, or seersucker. Pale colors are also recommended for a beach wedding, given the light, casual atmosphere. Stick with pale grey, a light blue shade, or off-white.
If it’s a casual, laid back beach wedding, go for a crisp tailored shirt and white linen pants, wearing the shirt collar open with sleeves rolled up. A pair of sandals, webbed belt, and perhaps a panama hat or white fedora and you’re ready to go! This is an easy attire for a beach wedding.
Still on the casual line, if you like something a bit on the funky side, pair beige tailored shorts with a white shirt and summer blazer; tie is optional! Slip on some deck shoes (sans socks, of course), a matching belt, and your wardrobe is sure to make a splash.
Sandy hues are always fitting at the beach! Pair a white shirt (short or long sleeved) embellished with a little embroidery with chinos, a natural fiber hat, woven sand-colored belt, and sandals if you want. Really casual beach weddings require no shoes at all – but you may want to ask the bride or groom if they’d rather those who attend wear shoes.
Attending a sailing themed wedding? This one’s easy! Pair a crisp white dress shirt with navy shorts. Throw on a sports jacket (pinstripe preferred), sailor-inspired cufflinks and multi-colored boat shoes. Get these correct and you’re ready to get on board.
As you can see, men’s attire for a beach wedding varies depending on the theme of the beach wedding. Also, on how formal or casual the occasion will be.
