Modern Groom Style: What's Trending Now
From fresh colour palettes to breathable fabrics, the best groom style trends for spring and summer weddings focus on looking sharp and feeling comfortable. Whether you’re planning a formal ceremony or a more relaxed celebration, these trends will help you make a memorable impression.
Spring & Summer Wedding Trends Every Groom Should Know
Defining Individuality with Custom Suits
Gone are the days when every groom wore the same off-the-rack suit. In 2025, the focus is on individuality, with grooms choosing tailored, one-of-a-kind pieces that reflect their personality and style. King & Bay specializes in custom and bespoke suits, meticulously crafted for a perfect fit and flattering silhouette. This spring and summer, grooms are embracing customizations like monogrammed details, unique linings, and subtle design elements that make each suit truly personal. More than just a look, a personalized suit is a reflection of character and taste; it's the small details that leave a lasting impression.
Mixing Casual with Formal
While traditional suits are still a popular choice, there’s a growing trend towards a more relaxed but refined aesthetic. Grooms are increasingly opting for separates, such as a tailored blazer paired with crisp trousers. This combination offers a unique balance between formal and laid-back, making it ideal for summer weddings, especially those held in outdoor or non-traditional venues. The casual approach is not about sacrificing elegance but rather reimagining the way we view wedding attire. It’s about blending combinations to create a look that feels both fresh and timeless.
Light & Breathable Fabrics
As spring and summer bring warmer weather, grooms are prioritizing comfort without sacrificing style. The demand for breathable fabrics like linen, cotton blends as well as lightweight fabrics is increasing. These fabrics not only provide cooling properties, but they also allow for a more relaxed and comfortable feel, especially for grooms getting married outdoors. While traditional dark colours like navy and charcoal remain timeless, lighter hues such as soft pastels, taupes and off-whites are gaining popularity this season. These lighter shades work harmoniously with the laid-back summer atmosphere, while still maintaining a sense of sophistication. The key is balance and mixing comfort with elevated elegance for a refined, relaxed look.
Sustainable Style
As sustainability continues to influence fashion, many grooms are opting for environmentally conscious wedding attire this spring and summer. Sustainable fabrics such as organic cotton are gaining traction as grooms become more aware of the environmental impact of their choices. At King & Bay, we’re proud to offer a range of sustainable options that combine style with responsibility and we believe that style doesn't have to come at the expense of the environment. Since custom clothing is tailored to your exact measurements, we ensure minimal excess fabric is used, unlike mass-produced clothing that often ends up in landfills. We also prioritize sourcing high-quality, durable fabrics that stand the test of time, reducing the need for constant replacements. When you choose custom clothing, you’re not only investing in timeless style but also supporting a more sustainable and mindful approach to fashion.
Making a Statement with Bold Accessories
While accessories used to be an afterthought, this is no longer the case. Bold accessories have become an essential part of the groom’s overall look. This spring and summer, grooms will be choosing to express their style through eye-catching elements. Detail such as pocket squares in unexpected patterns, statement cufflinks and ties that bring a pop of colour to the outfit will all help to elevate the groom’s look without feeling overwhelming.
For grooms looking to take their accessories to the next level, embroidered dress shirts and personalized leather shoes are emerging as sought-after choices. These subtle yet impactful additions are all about showcasing personal taste and creating a signature look that stands out.
Custom Footwear
As attention to detail becomes a hallmark of modern weddings, more grooms are turning to custom footwear to complete their spring and summer wedding look. Off-the-rack shoes rarely offer the perfect combination of fit, comfort and personal style that today’s grooms are looking for on their big day. Custom footwear allows for tailored sizing, premium materials, and personalized design choices from unique colour combinations to monogrammed soles. At King & Bay, we offer handcrafted, custom-made shoes designed to complement your wedding attire perfectly. Whether you're after a classic oxford or a bold statement loafer, our Master Clothiers work with you to design footwear that reflects your individual style while ensuring all-day comfort. Custom shoes are more than a finishing touch; they're an essential part of a groom’s complete, curated wedding ensemble.
At King & Bay, we believe that the groom should be just as celebrated as the bride, and his attire should reflect his personality, values and sense of style. From custom tailoring to bold accessories and sustainable choices, trends emphasize individuality, comfort and elegance. Whether you’re planning an outdoor wedding or rooftop celebration this spring or summer, your wedding attire is the perfect opportunity to express who you are.
