Planning your wedding is an exciting experience, but selecting the most ideal suit for you might be a challenge.
For same sex couples, more of an individual approach is your best bet, you might want elements of tradition, without looking like you match too much and to fully express your individual style. With so many options available, how do you select the right look for you and your partner?
At Montagio, we’re here to help you feel comfortable and confident on your big day with custom tailored wedding suits for people of all genders. We specialise in creating bespoke suits for all body types and we’ll help find a look you’ll absolute love so you look perfect on your perfect day.
Consider Your Wedding Theme
The style and overall tone of your wedding celebration will highly influence the look of your gay wedding suits.
Your suit should fit the overall feeling of your wedding; this might look like a chic black tie event, a semi casual formal look or a more relaxed theme.
Consider the venue, the time and location, which are all elements to think about. Our tailors will work with you, present material and styling options to create a look that will help solidify and match these elements altogether.
Formal Black Tie
f you’re thinking about going for a black tie event, you can’t go past the classic tux or a tailored fit.
– Matching Look :
To really standard out with detailing and fabrics like satin or velvet, you can create a look that feels quite sharp creating a sleek and modern feel. Both of you can really make a bold statement with the classic pop of detail on the lapel to create a truly unified feeling.
– Non Matching Look :
Choosing black, charcoal or navy can also keep the overall look traditional with a timeless style. For two grooms or two brides, having the subtle contrast on your lapels or different ties, will add cohesion whilst keeping your individuality.
The Beach Wedding
For many people, if you’re getting married on the beach or even a destination wedding, we suggest breathable and light fabrics like linen or cotton.
– Match with colour
To go with this theme, tones of grey, beige and creams will match your surroundings and your suits, this will really highlight the beach atmosphere.
If you want something with added flair, matching accessories like sandals can compliment the look which will fit the setting and beach environment.
– Non matching
For the fit and look, a looser and relaxed structure, with an open collar or sleeves that are rolled up creates a more relaxed feeling and style.
You can alternate this look with each couple member as well, with a rolled up and rolled down look or visa-versa with the buttoned up or buttoned down look.
Outdoor Wedding with a Rustic Look
For an outdoor wedding an earthy and more relaxed theme can be your go to look.
Matching
You could go for matching suit and jacket options. Linen and cotton materials work well in the colour palette of olive, brown tones, and tan will match the natural setting and nature around you.
This can even extend to your bridal party as well to help create a more cohesive feeling amongst everyone.
– Non Matching
To tie your lesbian wedding suits and gay mens wedding suits together, accessories like floral button holes, or matching floral lapels are great options to keep in theme.
This keeps your wedding looks consistent without feeling the need to completely match each other, with subtle hints in your outfits.
Express Your Unique Style
The purpose of your wedding is to honour your relationship and love. Your gay wedding suit should create that feeling, and bring together the unique qualities that make you an individual as well as bringing together the elements you both love about each other.
