Wedding season is coming up. Are you ready?
Sure, you might have the perfect, stylish, well-fitted suit. But there’s more to the ideal wedding outfit than the suit itself. Suits are an amazing canvas to add stylish accessories and create an unforgettable look.
Not sure where to start? Here are five of our favorite men’s wedding accessories to get you on track.
Watches
A stylish watch always pairs well with a suit. Whether in the office, on vacation, or at a wedding, watches take your suit game to the next level.
Traditionally, watches weren’t worn at weddings because it was thought to be a rude gesture. However, times have changed and a classy watch is a welcomed addition to elevate your wedding outfit.
A watch worn with a suit to a wedding should have a sleek, clean, and minimalistic look. Leather straps work best—although you’ll want to match the band to your shoes.
This Black & Silver Transparent Dial Strap Watch is a great pick for a classic black band. The unique see-through case and soft strap make this watch a must-have.
If a brown strap is more your style, the Brown & Gold Multi-Function Croco-Grain Strap Watch is right for you. The Croco-Grain strap combined with the gold-tone metal case helps to add a classic feel to your outfit.
Tie Bar
If you want to look your best as a wedding guest, a tie bar adds some nuance to your get-up.
Although a tie bar might be a subtle accessory, it can be the missing piece to completing an outfit—especially when combined with the perfect bespoke suit. It also has the added benefit of holding your tie together and keeping it in place.
There are two primary types of tie bars: Slide bars and tie clips. Slide bars are a solid piece of metal that slides into position to hold the tie, while tie clips have a simple hinge that opens and closes on the tie.
Cufflinks
A pair of cufflinks is another example of men’s wedding accessories that is both ornamental and functional at the same time. Cufflinks are an alternative to shirt buttons that hold your shirt cuffs closed.
They’re also great for adding more nuance to your outfit—just like a tie bar.
Cufflinks can be found in various designs, from simple metal cufflinks to intricate designs and gemstones. The right pair of cufflinks can even be passed on as an heirloom from generation to generation.
Cologne
Cologne is an often overlooked accessory for men. When you look good, you want to smell good, right?
The type of cologne you pick will depend on the season. During the colder months, woodsy scents are the most sought after.
During the summer months, you’ll want to go after lighter scents. The Modern Gentleman cologne from Joseph Abboud is a great example, with top notes that include citrus peel and pear.
Sunglasses
Sunglasses are only an applicable accessory for an outdoor wedding.
However, when you get the chance to pair some stylish shades with your well-fitted suit, you need to take it!
In general, you’ll want to stick to basic styles to avoid standing out too much at someone else’s wedding. Here’s the good news: The basics work. You’ve got a couple of style options to choose from that work well with a suit and have you looking your best.
The Black Square Sunglasses from Joseph Abboud are a great choice for effortless style when you attend a wedding. They feature solid gray polarized lenses and an injected frame.
If you prefer a classic style, aviators never get old. These Black Aviator Sunglasses from Joseph Abboud offer a timeless and sleek look that never goes out of style.
