The Ultimate Guide For You And Your Best men
The summer has finally arrived, bringing with it a slew of wonderful weddings. If you’re fortunate enough to have one of these weddings to attend, About Vintage and Deerest have teamed up to ensure you and your best men are perfectly dressed for the big day.
What to Wear as a Best Man at a Wedding?
As a regular wedding guest, you have many options. A good starting point would be a suit. If the couple prefers that you attend in a tuxedo or white tie, it will typically be mentioned in the invitation.
However, a best man shouldn’t wear just any suit. It should coordinate with the groom’s suit. For example, if the groom is wearing a dark green suit, the best man might also wear a green suit, ideally in the same shade. It can also look great if the groom stands out on his own, and the best man complements with a color that enhances but does not overshadow. Accessories, such as the wedding vest and tie, can help identify the groom and ensure he shines the most on the big day.
As a best man, you could choose a different tie than the groom. Your best men can wear their suits without a vest, whereas the groom often wears a suit with a vest – and there are many stylish options here.
A Common Mistake We Often See at Weddings
Many grooms and best men miss an important detail that’s just as crucial as their suit – their watch.
With a matching watch, you complete the suit with an elegant final touch, ensuring that both the groom and his groomsmen look impeccably sharp.
A Special Day Deserves a Special Watch.
You only get married once, and a watch is a perfect way to commemorate and remember your wedding day. That’s why at About Vintage, we have a dedicated page for Groomsmen and Best Men. Here, you can get a 20% discount when purchasing at least 4 watches for you and your best friends.
At About Vintage, we offer free personal engraving on your watch. You can have the wedding date or another meaningful date or text engraved.
One of our favorites for this summer is our 1934 Telechron, Steel/Off White. In our opinion, it’s possibly our best design to date. The cream-colored dial, its slimmer case, and its classic design make it perfect for a formal event like your wedding day, yet versatile enough for everyday wear afterward.
This watch’s look can also be significantly altered by the strap you pair it with. It comes with a brown suede strap, but you can easily style it with one of our many other straps for a different look.
