Just under a month to Christmas, and the wedding bells are starting to chime for a host of Winter weddings over the next few weeks, so while the focus is typically on finding the perfect wintry ensemble for the bride, there’s someone else to think of who will be standing outside chilling in the photos. Red noses and blue hands don’t look so great on guys either, and just like for the ladies and their gorgeous winter warmers, it’s important to ensure the groom and the gents are just as suitably attired for the cold weather. It’s one of those things so easily forgotten, so to avoid dodgy jackets thrown on last minute, we’ve put together some great winter groom style inspiration and ideas from real grooms featuring everything from cosy suiting and coats, to jumpers, hats and scarves.
Winter Groom Style Inspiration and Ideas
Cosy Coats
Whether it’s a chic peacoat or ultra snug overcoat, if you love a good winter coat why not wear one with your wedding look! Perfect for the really colder months, it’ll keep you extra warm getting from the car to the ceremony, and the ceremony to the reception, and all of the photo stops inbetween. Plus, it’s something special to use in your everyday wardrobe after the wedding.
Dapper Velvet Blazers
The heavier texture of a velvet blazer is the ideal choice for a stylish winter wedding groom looking for a luxurious and elegant look. Not only with you feel the extra warmth, you’ll look pretty dapper while doing so too!
Warm Wool & Tweed Suits
Be it a suit, a jacket or even just a waistcoat, layering warmer suiting fabrics like tweeds, houndstooth and wool instantly adds warmth to any grooms look.
Stylish Scarves
A winter wedding accessory you may not have thought of, but a stylish scarf plays a double role at a winter wedding. Firstly, it will keep you warm and snug. No one wants to be shivering their way through the ceremony. Secondly, will also add a unique stylish element to your wedding day look. Don’t forget about the groomsmen and father of the bride too!
Snug Winter Hats & Gloves
Finish your look with winter accessories and woolies such as flat caps or woolly hats for extra warmth, and don’t forget a pair of gloves in wool or leather to keep those hands warm for their all important ceremony debut!
Classic Jumpers & Cardigans and Trendy Turtlenecks
With winter weather being so temperamental, even if it’s not cold enough for a coat, popping a jumper, cardigan, polo or pull-over underneath the suit does the trick instead. We particularly love the cardigan under the jacket look as it gives the illusion of a waistcoat, all while keeping cosy! And for a smart casual groomsmen look, why not opt for a sweater, shirt and slacks combo?
