Gay Wedding Ideas, Styles and Trends

Modern weddings are becoming increasingly personal, inclusive, and fashion-forward — and gay weddings are at the forefront of redefining what stylish celebration truly means. Whether it’s a sleek city ceremony, a chic countryside affair, or a beachside vow exchange, same-sex weddings give couples the freedom to express their love in a way that’s true to who they are — from the setting down to the suits.

At Wessi, we celebrate love in all its forms and proudly offer stylish menswear options that cater to diverse identities and wedding visions. Here’s a look at standout gay wedding ideas, styles, and trends that are making an impact in 2025 and beyond.

1. Tailored to Fit Your Love Story

The classic tuxedo will always have a place at weddings, but modern couples are choosing customized suits that reflect their personality and connection. For same-sex grooms, this can mean matching suits with subtle differences (think lapel shape or lining color), completely different looks in complementary tones, or personalized embroidery inside the jacket — such as initials or the wedding date.

At Wessi, we offer a wide range of suits that can be tailored to create the perfect match — or contrast — for any wedding theme. From timeless black tuxedos to modern jacquard blazers, our collection allows couples to feel confident, chic, and unique.

2. Statement Colors and Fabrics

Gone are the days when black and navy were the only acceptable colors for grooms. Today’s gay weddings are embracing vibrant tones, bold patterns, and luxurious fabrics. Think emerald green velvet, rich burgundy brocade, or pastel linen for beach or summer weddings.

Matching your outfit to your wedding setting is a trend that’s both stylish and symbolic. Garden weddings pair beautifully with floral prints or light tan tones, while urban rooftop events call for sharp, contemporary designs.

Wessi’s seasonal collections include standout pieces in bold colors and textured materials, giving couples the freedom to break away from the ordinary.

3. Mix and Match Looks

Who says you both have to wear the same style? Many couples are now mixing formal and semi-formal elements to express individuality. One groom might choose a classic 3-piece suit, while the other goes with a blazer and trousers combo. This kind of styling works well when both outfits follow a shared theme or color palette, creating harmony without uniformity.

Wessi’s wide variety of formalwear — from double-breasted suits to modern slim-fit blazers — gives every groom the chance to showcase their personality while still complementing their partner.

4. Creative Accessories That Pop

Accessories are the easiest way to infuse personality into your wedding look. Colorful bow ties, floral lapel pins, monogrammed cufflinks, or even matching pocket squares can make a big impact.

A growing trend among gay couples is to incorporate symbolism into their accessories — like rainbow lining inside the jacket, or matching pins that reflect their shared story. Wessi offers a curated selection of accessories that match our suits seamlessly, allowing you to add those stylish finishing touches.

5. Second Look or After-Party Attire

A second outfit for the reception or after-party is becoming a popular trend, especially among grooms who want to let loose after the ceremony. Consider switching into something more fun — a satin jacket, a bold-colored suit, or a sleek shirt and vest combination that’s great for dancing.

Wessi's modern partywear options ensure you stay sharp while enjoying every moment of your big day.

6. Photography-Ready Ensembles

Today’s weddings are all about Instagram-worthy moments — and your outfit plays a central role. Coordinating your attire not just with your partner, but with your surroundings and even the floral design can create photos you’ll treasure forever.

A standout suit from Wessi, paired with expert tailoring and a few personalized touches, guarantees you'll look picture-perfect from every angle.
