A white tie is a very tricky dress code but looks great with a tuxedo. The ideal white tie attire is black pants with a matching tuxedo or blazer/jacket or totally black suit and formal shoes.

2. Wedding Attire By Season

What kind of dress to wear to a wedding as per the season? Tips towards wedding dress codes for men as per season are as below:

A. Summer Wedding

Pick breathable fabrics like linen, wool-linen blend or for that matter silk/rayon-linen blend; this helps skip the summer heat. Simple dress shirts without neckties, with formal pants, are the safest bet. Lighter colors are always in. Trendy youngsters can also pick cropped suit pants; here skip the socks.

B. Winter Wedding

Black, brown, navy blue, maroon, olive and more are the winter colors that enhance a standard suit. So what adds the zing? The texture and fabric - rich velvets and other thicker fabrics. Keep the dress shirt plain if the suit has this zing or you are wearing a textured jacket - so that this stands out. Also for an add on accessorize your outfit suitable suit accessories. 

C. Spring Wedding

Spring is the season when nature blooms at its best, so always go for pastel shades to suit the mood, whether you go for just formal shirts and pants or formal suits. Light gray, light blue are also the colors for spring. Don't forget to accessorize the outfit with bow ties/neckties, and cufflinks.

ADDITIONAL TIP: Be it any season of the year, in case of a destination wedding attire, always scan the weather forecast and temperature and pick an attire accordingly. For instance, you might need suitable boots, in case a winter wedding shows a steep fall in temperatures!

3. TIME OF WEDDING

Now comes the question of what to wear to a wedding with no dress code, but a specific time of the day? Our experts share the tips below:

A. Morning Wedding

Early morning weddings are usually done when something traditional is being planned for the bride and groom. Thus, an ethnic wedding attire would look great for a morning wedding. Again, bright and pastel shades are better, as the event may stretch till the brunch and may be held in the garden outdoors.

B. Daytime Wedding

Daytime Wedding Outfit For Men

Unless there is a dress code, prefer to wear bright yet pastel shades for a daytime wedding, which mark our words will be set up in bright environs. Whether you pair a small dress shirt with jeans or wear a checkered suit, simply avoid the color black in the day, even in the shoes or neck-tie. 

C. Evening Wedding

At evening weddings, the colors matter whether it is formal attire or casual. You can slightly play with colors in shirts and even in your shoes. Can also stick to blacks, grays and browns in the outfits when in suits, where cufflinks add the zing. But if you pick blazers for men, then a pocket square will add the spunk.

Always ensure that even if an online pick the attire must have an excellent tailoring and comfortable fit. A wedding is a place where a lot of activity is involved including dancing and being married, thus a proper fit will keep you comfortably active and sweat-free too. 

2. Dry Cleaning is Must

Even if you are using freshly bought attire, dry cleaning adds that extra charm to the outfit by making it look spic and span. But always remember to slightly sun-dry the attire after you bring it back from the dry cleaner. There must be no chemical smell in the outfit. 

3.Consider Accessories Carefully
