Read on for the Oliver Brown wedding style guide, with tips for dressing for getting it right, whatever the location.     If you're the groom Morning suits are traditionally worn by the groom and groomsmen on the big day itself. We recommend a morning coat in grey or black, or with a subtle herringbone weave as shown above. Ensure to team your coat with a waistcoat and silk tie - and of course, a floral button hole which complements your waistcoat and the bride's bouquet.     If it's a city wedding Unless it's a very formal affair, a slick day suit such as our single-breasted navy herringbone suit is perfect for contemporary city weddings.
