Modern Tuxedo Styles Every Groom Should Know

Modern Tuxedo Styles Every Groom Should Know

Choosing the perfect tuxedo for your wedding day shouldn't be a stressful ordeal - it should be fun! Forget the stuffy, ill-fitting tuxedos of the past. Today's modern groom has an incredible range of sophisticated, stylish options that perfectly reflect his personality and the vibe of the wedding.


At Serendipity Bridal and Events in Washington DC, we believe every groom deserves to feel as amazing as his partner. We’re here to guide you through the hottest modern tuxedo styles that will have you looking sharp, confident, and completely ready for your close-up.

 

The Slim-Fit Classic
This is the cornerstone of modern formalwear. The slim-fit tuxedo is tailored to hug the body without being too tight, creating a clean, elongated silhouette. It’s a significant update from the traditional boxy cut, offering a contemporary edge while remaining undeniably classic.

 

MICHAEL KORS | STYLE 990


Why we love it: It flatters almost every body type and is versatile enough for any wedding setting, from a grand ballroom to a chic city loft. Pair it with a slim-cut pant and a sleek bow tie.

 

The Midnight Blue Tuxedo
Black will always be in style, but midnight blue is the sophisticated alternative taking the wedding world by storm. This deep hue appears richer and often photographs better than pure black, offering a subtle contrast that makes it feel instantly modern.

 

MICHAEL KORS | STYLE 311


Why we love it: It’s unexpected but still formal. It looks stunning with black satin lapels and creates a particularly striking look for evening weddings. Want to mix it up? Try a tone-on-tone blue vest underneath.

 

The Separates Look (Formal Edition)
Who says your jacket and trousers must be the same color? A modern formal look can be achieved by pairing, for example, a crisp white or ivory dinner jacket with black tuxedo trousers. This is a bold choice that works particularly well for destination, summer, or semi-formal weddings.

 

KENNETH COLE | STYLE 201


Why we love it: It’s a chic, Old Hollywood-inspired look that feels fresh. It gives off a sophisticated, celebratory vibe without sacrificing formality.
