Our groomsmen are wearing navy and he is wearing cobalt blue (vests) that will match my cobalt shoes :) my BM are also in navy so it kind of ties together. I've seen a lot where the groomsmen wear color and the groom wears white/ivory for the vest.
They are all wearing the same vest, suit jacket and tie, but FI has a black dress shirt while the other guys have white
to married bees, any pictures will be much appreciated. Thanks :)
My FI bought a dark gray suit, and the grooms men and my dad are renting a black suit.
He will have a white boutonniere instead of a coloured one. He's 6ft 5 so that should help! :P
my FI is going to have a white vest and tie, and a white boutonniere instead of a yellow boutenniere and blue vest and tie. Here's an example that I found online that I have in mind:

Mine is going to wear a 3 piece suit instead of a two, A patterned tie instead of a solid, probably have a different bout, and if I can convince him...probably purple socks (wedding color). It will be a pretty subtle difference.
All the men in our bridal party wore or rented their own tuxedos, so no one "matched," in that sense (though they all had the same level of formality). My husband also wore a different boutonniere (tuberose) than the other men (roses).
My FI will be the one with the biggest smile on his face!
He's going in to be in the same uniform as his friends, but I don't think anyone is going to have trouble figuring out who the groom is.
my FI will have a dark grey vest whereas the groomsmen will have royal blue vests. as well, my FI will have a hot pink rose boutinnere to match my bouquet and the groomsmen will have white flowers that match the bridesmaids bouquets.
i'm toying with the idea of having my SO wear a different color suit all together, maybe grey? Just depends. I also LOVE the monochromatic look but I don't think he should have on the SAME as the groomsmen. Ya know?? I love seeing the pictures, it really helps put things into perspective!
have him match YOU!
my groomsmen are wearing navy suits & rose ties in coordination with the bridesmaids rose dresses...
i assumed my FI would want a navy suit but with a champagne/ivory tie in coordination with my dress.. he surprised me and wants a tan suit and navy tie all together to stand out!
DH wore a different bout. Everything else was the same for him and his GMen.
He wore a different kilt and had a rose in his bout instead of just berries.

Hi!
We have decided to go for same suit and waistcoat but with different colour ties. Havent decided whether the groomsmen should have the pink tie or whether my hubby-to-be should have the pink!!
I'm really glad I saw this thread cause I hadn't even thought about having the groom look different from the groomsmen!
He wore a white bow tie, and the rest of the boys wore black:

The wedding party wore gold vests and ties; DH wore an ivory vest and tie.
He's wearing a silver vest and tie (matches my shoes), and the groomsmen are wearing the same style, but in blue to match the bridesmaids.
Our colors were cobalt blue and apple green. We had our groomsmen in blue, our officiant in green, and DH, well, a mix of those! He had a green/blue tie with a white vest combo.
Actually, nothing! He only has one GM, his best man, so we thought it would look silly for them to do something mismatched because then it would just look...mismatched, lol. FI's bout will probably be bigger/different flowers than the best man's though.
All the guys had the black suit with a black shirt. We didn't do vests. I bought the GM green ties with green pocket squares and the groom a white tie with a white pocket square. His bout was also different. They looked awesome!
I never thought about this! But I like the picture with the white bow tie vs the black. Also I am making him a more detailed boutonniere, does that count?
I'm having a Mexico beach wedding and he will be wearing a full beige linen suit with a white shite underneats... and the guys will be wearing the same but withough the jacket and they will have rolled up sleeves... of course he will be taking the jacket off once the ceremony and photos are done
My fiance is wearing a gray 3 piece suit, while all of the groomsmen are wearing black suits. He also has a special tie. We didn't originally plan for him to wear a different color from the rest of the guys, but he was trying on suits and we both just loved it so much. I really like the look when I've seen other brides do it.
At the ceremony my husband wore his dress uniform while the groomsmen wore tuxes but then also changed into a slightly nicer tux that was black like the other guys' but had kind of an edging of shinier Material. He wore an ivory vest and tie and pocket square while the groomsmen wore grey vests and ties with a green pocket square.
FH - Ivory vest and ivory tie with white cymbidium orchid bout'
Groomsmen and my dad/FFIL/FstepFIL - lapis vest, lapis tie with green cymbidium orchid bout'
My FI will have a vest and tie that matches his grey tux whereas the groomsmen will have a purple vest and tie to match the bridesmaids. Here is my FI's tux with the grey vest and tie:

hubby to be will have orange tie and his boutiner will matxh my bridal bouqt flowers(purple and orange).. grooms men will where plum ties with matching boutiners flowers the bridesmaids will be holding(white and orange)
My groomsmen are in black pants, black shirt, red ties.
My FI will wear black suit with a red shirt and a black tie.
I also think FI has different flowers, but it's been six months since I talked to the florist!
My GMs will be wearing suits of various dark grey colors with mismatched green ties to match the BMs mismatched green dresses, and I will be wearing a very light grey suit with a light blue tie to match the light blue sash on FI's dress.
I'm actually having the same issue right now because, while FI will be wearing his military uniform, so will the best man :( I really wanted FI to be the only one in uniform but that would be a military no-no. So, I'm not really sure how FI will "Stand Out," especially in pictures. FI will be the only one wearing a particular cap and the other uniformed wedding party member will be wearing a berret - maybe that's enough?
Fiance is wearing a grey vest and a purple paisley tie while the groomsmen are wearing purple vest and grey ties. Best Man is wearing all purple (but no paisley).
I was initially against having the groom wear something different from the groomsmen, but it was important to my fiance, so of course we went with what he wanted. I'm really happy we did and I think it will look great. The groom, groomsmen, and dads are all wearing black tuxes with a black vest but the groom is wearing a black tie, the groomsmen yellow/gray striped ties, and the dads gray solid ties.

My fiance does not want to look the same as our 5 groomsmen? What can we do to make him stand out?
