Choosing a wedding suit can be quite intimidating. One has to keep in mind not to over shine the bride and at the same time not blend with wedding attendees.
It is important to choose a suit color that works well with your skin tone, is comfortable and fits well.
Here are few pointers that will help you make better decision.
1) Your Wedding Venue :

Ballroom Weddings
For luxury hotels and formal indoor venues, structured suits and tuxedos work best.
Outdoor & Garden Weddings

ROM & Intimate Weddings
Smaller ceremonies allow for a more relaxed and modern approach.
2) Choose a Suit Based on Your Body Type
