    If bridal fashion has taught us anything, it’s that weddings are no longer about tradition for tradition’s sake. And honestly? The same goes for grooms.

    The modern groom isn’t settling for a standard black suit and calling it a day. Today’s best wedding style moments are tailored, intentional and deeply personal – and celebrity weddings continue to set the tone.

    From old-money tailoring to relaxed coastal suiting and fashion-forward textures, we rounded up the celebrity groom looks that still deserve a spot on every wedding mood board.

    1. George Clooney (2014)

    When George Clooney married Amal in Venice in 2014, his wedding look became an instant blueprint for timeless groom style.

    His custom Giorgio Armani tuxedo delivered everything a formal wedding suit should: razor-sharp tailoring, a classic black silhouette and understated elegance.

    • The era: Classic European luxury
    • Suit: Custom Giorgio Armani
    • Why it still works in 2026:
      The return of quiet luxury means black-tie dressing is back — but cleaner, softer and less over-styled.

    Steal the look:

    • Peak lapel tuxedo
    • Crisp white shirt
    • Satin detailing
    • Minimal accessories

    2. Brooklyn Beckham (2022)

    Brooklyn Beckham’s Palm Beach wedding look marked a major shift in groom fashion. His custom Dior suit featured a classic ivory dinner jacket with contemporary tailoring and elevated details.

    The result? Traditional without feeling dated.

    • The era: Modern old money
    • Suit: Custom Dior by Kim Jones
    • Why it still works in 2026:
      Ivory and off-white tuxedo jackets continue dominating destination and summer weddings.

    Steal the look:

    • Ivory dinner jacket
    • Black tailored trousers
    • Clean-cut silhouette
    • Elevated evening shoes

    3. Justin Bieber (2019)

    Justin Bieber’s South Carolina wedding proved that less really can be more.

    Instead of heavily structured formalwear, Bieber opted for a sleek black Celine tux paired with relaxed styling that felt modern rather than overly polished.

    • The era: Contemporary minimalism
    • Suit: Custom Celine by Hedi Slimane
    • Why it still works in 2026:
      Minimal tailoring continues trending among younger grooms who want elegance without feeling overdressed.

    Steal the look:

    • Slim black tailoring
    • Clean shirt styling
    • Minimal jewellery
    • Streamlined accessories

    4. Nick Jonas (2018)

    Nick Jonas gave us one of the strongest examples of contemporary black-tie dressing during his wedding celebrations.

    His custom Ralph Lauren look balanced traditional tuxedo structure with softer luxury finishes and rich evening styling.

    • The era: Modern statement formalwear
    • Suit: Custom Ralph Lauren Purple Label
    • Why it still works in 2026:
      Statement formalwear is replacing safe formalwear.

    Steal the look:

    • Velvet textures
    • Tonal layers
    • Luxe tailoring
    • Monochrome accessories

    5. Kit Harington (2018)

    Kit Harington’s wedding look reminded everyone that classic doesn’t have to mean predictable.

    His formal morning suit featured contrasting pieces that created visual interest while staying rooted in British tailoring traditions.

    • The era: Heritage tailoring revival
    • Suit: Traditional morning suit
    • Why it still works in 2026:
      Vintage-inspired tailoring and old-world ceremony dressing are making a major comeback.

    Steal the look:

    • Waistcoat layering
    • Contrast trousers
    • Tailcoat structure
    • Heritage fabrics

    6. David Beckham (Style Era: Late 2010s–2020s)

    Not technically a recent wedding moment – but impossible to ignore when talking groom inspiration.

    David Beckham remains the reference point for modern groom style: fitted but not restrictive, classic but never boring.

    • The era: Tailoring perfection
    • Signature suit aesthetic: Sharp bespoke suiting
    • Why it still works in 2026:
      Because fit still matters more than trend.

    Steal the look:

    • Bespoke tailoring
    • Deep navy tones
    • Soft shoulder construction
    • Premium finishing details

    The weddingETC takeaway

    Celebrity wedding style works because it feels intentional – not expensive.

    The strongest groom looks right now aren’t trying to outshine the moment. They’re designed to complement it.

    Whether you lean toward Clooney’s timeless tux, Beckham’s polished tailoring or Bieber’s relaxed approach, the formula stays the same: great fit, thoughtful details and a suit that feels like you.

    Because the best wedding photos never start with, “What was trending?” They start with, “That looked so him.”

    Bow ties are a classic option that will add the finishing touch to your wedding day outfit. As dashing as they are, the sophisticated embellishment is a bit tricky to pull off.

    Step by step

    Choose a great bow tie 

    Black is a classic colour to choose but if your wedding vibe allows for it, consider opting for a funky colour, pattern or material.

    Sizing 

    To ensure you get that dashing and sophisticated look, adjust the bow tie according to your neck size. Ask a sales assistant to measure your neck when purchasing a bow tie. There should be an adjustable slider or a hook and holes that will allow you to make the bow tie bigger or smaller.

    How to tie 

    The most popular choice is the butterfly bow tie.

    First place your bow tie around your neck facing up. Make sure that the right side is shorter than the left. Your left end is A and the right end is B.

    Move A over to the right. It will be across from B. It should form an X shape.

    Move A under B and bring it up through the neck loop.

    You can now fold B towards the right and finally to the left, which will then create the bow shape.

    The A side can now move straight down over the middle section (the bow shape)

    A can be folded towards the chest.

    Pinch the fold.

    You need to push A through the loop behind B.

    Finally, pull on the folded parts which will tighten it. Adjust the bow tie to be balanced on both sides.
