2026 Summer Wedding Suit Trends You Need to Know

With June in full swing, our Orem shop is buzzing with couples finalizing their looks for the biggest day of their lives. While classic navy and black will always have their place, the 2026 wedding season has brought some incredible new styles to the forefront.

If you want your wedding party to look sharp, modern, and perfectly coordinated, here are the top trends we are currently seeing for grooms and groomsmen suits in Orem.

1. Earth Tones Are Taking Over

For years, the standard wedding lineup was a sea of dark blue or charcoal grey. This summer, couples are leaning heavily into nature-inspired palettes that look spectacular against Utah's mountain backdrops.

• Light Tans and Khakis: The ultimate daytime wedding look. It keeps the guys cool in the sun and looks incredible next to white bridal gowns.

• Sage Green: Easily the most requested color of the year. It acts as a beautiful, soft neutral that pairs perfectly with almost any floral arrangement.

• Warm Terracotta and Rust: Perfect for late summer and early fall, these rich colors make a massive, stylish statement for the groom.

2. The Return of the Three-Piece Suit

Vests are officially back in a big way. Adding a matching vest to your rental or retail suit instantly elevates the formality of the event.

More importantly, it solves the "reception problem." When the dancing starts and the summer heat sets in, the jackets inevitably come off. A three-piece suit ensures that even when the guys ditch their coats, they still look incredibly put-together and formally dressed in their vests, rather than looking like they are just wearing office clothes.

3. Textured Ties & Floral Neckwear

We are seeing a huge step away from plain, shiny satin ties. Today’s grooms and groomsmen are adding personality to their outfits through texture.

• Floral Ties: A subtle floral pattern that matches the bridesmaid dresses is a fantastic way to tie the whole wedding party together.

• Knit Ties: These feature a square bottom and a textured weave, giving a slightly vintage, highly stylish feel to a classic fitted suit.

• Textured Bow Ties: A velvet or patterned bow tie is a brilliant way for the groom to stand out from the rest of the groomsmen.

4. The "Hybrid" Wedding Party Strategy

This is the smartest trend we've seen, and it makes life easier for everyone's budget. Instead of making all the guys buy a suit, or making the groom rent a suit he wants to keep, couples are doing a hybrid approach:

• The Groomsmen Rent: The groomsmen utilize our premium, hassle-free suit rentals. They get a flawless look for the weekend without breaking the bank.

• The Groom Buys: The groom purchases his own professionally fitted retail suit from our shop. Our experts perfectly tailor the fit to his build, ensuring he has a stunning, high-quality suit to keep for his new life as a married man.
