05:29 5. Ill-Fitting Clothes
06:39 6. Uncomfortable Clothes
07:30 7. Vulgar Items
08:19 8. Extremely Casual Clothing
- Athleisure & Athletic Wear

- Jeans
- Shorts
- Flip-Flops & Other Sandals

Now that you know what to avoid wearing to a wedding, you’ll be able to free up your mind to create a truly classic wedding outfit and, of course, to just enjoy yourself.
Let us know in the comments what you think should never be long for a wedding!
10:47 Outfit Rundown - Навчання та стиль
I went to a wedding in suit and tie, as I do, while other guests were way too casual. It was in church and the bride and groom were in gown and tux. While I was a guest and not in the party, the priest dragooned me into doing one of the readings because I was one of the few appropriately dressed people in attendance.
Good job Giant Skunk.
I always say it is better to be slightly overdressed than underdressed.
Today everything is so sloppy and too informal that a simple suit goes a long way and makes you stand out as a paragon of classic gentleman. 👍
So funny….I work at a church, so we host memorials and weddings often. I’ve been teased before for wearing a regular suit, simply because most other guests are under dressed 😂
I agree when attending a wedding, or even church _if one goes to church,_ or a job interview. A person should look his/her best, to me its *respect!*
I would wear black capped Oxford shoes with a near mirror finish on the cap!
Of course the groom if possible, wear a tailcoat, whereas the best man, should wear a _Shawl Lapel jacket,_ not to out do the groom! As one's wedding is a special day for the couple _more for the bride,_ even the guests should wear a good quality suit as well, all the guests should be _men that is_ should dawn *black capped Oxford* shoes!
After all a wedding, job interview etc isn't casual Friday is it?
I’ll probably never get married, but if I did, people would have to dress up. I love wearing a tie and looking nice, the world has gone way too casual for my tastes. When in doubt or no dress code is indicated by the bride or groom I’d dress up, it’s a wedding!
Didn't happen
This one seems to have become less automatic in the last 30 years, but is a matter of politeness: if you wear a hat to a wedding, and the wedding is being held at a church, take the hat OFF when you enter. (Notable exception: headwear that is part of your own religious observance, for example a dastar or a kippah/yarmulke).
I just got married in Brazil. Even in the summer, most of the guys wore jackets and no one melted…including me
Was the season summer or winter where the wedding took place?
Also was it costal or inland? I find humidity really difficult to deal with
Congratulations on getting married!
Linen jackets are breathable
I'm not sure how helpful this will be but at the last wedding I attended, I directly asked my good friend (the bride) about the dress code & roughly what her groom would be wearing. That way I'd be able to dress in such a way that would make her happy on her special day, but I also wouldn't overdress. I know this won't be possible for everyone depending on what kind of relationship you have with those that invited you.
I live in the American south. Weddings get REALLY casual down here. But some thoughts I've carried with me for those occasions are:
1. Softer materials. Worsted wool will probably be a little too much. Something with some texture will probably help you blend in.
2. You'll see lots of grays and blues, having a little brown will help provide a calm, elegant air to your look.
3. Florals, whether printed or embroidered, on accessories, are an extremely solid choice. Weddings generally have flowers. Flowers generally represent a good omen for life, the future, and things of that nature. So adding some subtle, elegant floral touches to your accessories can really make a positive difference.
Funny you say that. I expected southern weddings to be sticklers for formality.
@@Adam33067 You'd think so, but no. Not unless you're in some kind of mega-church but even then, they can get pretty casual compared to what you might conventionally consider wedding attire.
If the dresscode specifies cargo shorts, it's time to find better friends or family members.
100% agree.
Amen. I got invited to a beach wedding once. They were more distant friends. Couldn't bring myself to go. If they had been inner circle or my brother, I'd of endured it.
Cargo shorts are the best shorts.
@@JamesRDavenport I'd of? You should find better English books or better English teachers instead of contemplating about social functions.
@@darthgiggity7948 I'd= I would. It's a legitimate contraction. I'm a proper American, I prefer not to speak like a Grand Moff all the time.
I would have definitely been murdered if I wore a T-shirt and shorts to my brothers wedding. Especially being a groomsman.
Tomorrow it’s my one year wedding anniversary 💒🤵🏻♂️ I bought 2 boutonnières from Fort Belvedere, and use them in my civil and religious wedding, both looks amazing in the pictures and quality it’s outstanding!
Congratulations, Alejandro, and thanks for your purchase! We're glad that our boutonnières could provide the finishing touch for your ceremonies.

I really want to thank y’all for adding captions to your videos. It’s rare to find a channel that bother to set the auto-caption language, let alone write one. Again, thank you so much for making your videos more accessible
There is a huge difference between "what is acceptable at a wedding" and "what a GENTLEMAN should wear to a wedding".
For what it's worth, if I'm required to wear anything less than a suit to a wedding so as to not be overdressed, I'm probably declining the invitation.
@@themoderndandy713 I recently attended a pretty casual Wedding (outdoors at a park) with the reception outside behind a local tavern. The only dress code request was that everyone wear something black. I wore a black suit.
@@themoderndandy713 Good point. 👍
@@dandiehm8414 Nicely done. What color tie?
@@eyeheartsushi2212 Silver. :)
I have seen people in very casual clothing at weddings. It is disrespectful to the bride and groom and comes across like you do not care. It is something you just do not do.
big fan of casual weddings. Chinos, a nice shirt and sporty blazer. But most important is to aks about the dress code.
I got married in a Robin Egg Blue leisure suit 45 years ago tomorrow.
I am agreeing with point 3- Wear something that would mistaken you for the maid of honor/groom/wife-to-be. I've seen a guy that was adamant that his girlfriend would wear a robe similar and in the same color than the bridesmaids, when she wasn't related to the bride at all, all that because it was his girlfriend's best-looking dress.
It created somewhat of an incident with the bride, didn't looked very "classy". To make it simple, just respect the "hosts" and follow the instructions and it should be fine regarding the dress code, it their wedding, not yours.
I have to go to a wedding TOMORROW. that was pretty convenient!
Why? No. Don't go.
@@photomukund wot
@@yourlocaldoomer Go.
@@BatmanRules k
Psychic Sidekick has obviously predicted some horrific incident, which is to happen at the wedding tomorrow. Definitely trust the internet stranger and skip the wedding. Psychics are renowned for never being wrong. Ever. My fortune cookie told me so.
Great video as always! What do you all think about doing a video series where subscribers send you a picture of themselves in formal attire with a description of the event that it was worn to, and you review the outfit, talking about what you like and don't like about it, and how it could be improved?
I just had this idea and was about to type it. It'd be great!
I can't believe people need to be told this. 🤦♀
Exactly. It wasn’t all that long ago that everyone just KNEW what was appropriate for a wedding. Funerals too. Things have not changed for the better.
We live in times of overall degeneracy and dystopia my friend.
I, for one, had no idea not to wear bow ties with F-bombs to my conservative, Christian aunt's wedding. Thank goodness I decided to wear my pentagram one instead! Thank you, Gentleman's Gazette!
My reaction as well.
Could you give us your opinion on silk blended suits?
Love the videos, I sincerely appreciate your guidance.
1. Tatoos
2. Braided hair
3. Non wearing socks
Most weddings I have been to in Austria and Germany were very casual (T Shirt with odd jackets and sneakers everywhere).
At least on the countryside traditional folk weddings boom.
Are sport coats still too casual for weddings? Based on Raphaels resort attire I suppose not. I also have a Dark suit but it gets too hot out here and hardly do I ever get to wear it these days sadly. Completely agree with all the points made here.
Request:
May you please give us a list of the best tailors in major cities?
I live in New York City, so there’s so many tailors that I’m not sure which tailors are the best. Thank you.
Good video
Oh come on Glam Preston's the best.
most of the time when i go to wedding , am the photographer . so i wear a black shirt and black pance with wast coat with sometimes neck tie also have dark blazer if i will stay to the party or resection and ask to the assistant working with me to also wear black so whee are not confuse with guess and don t show in reflection
Hello Gentlemen's Gazette, first of all; thank you: thank you so much. I have been coming to you for fashion advice for years now, and you have done so much to help me! You guys are totes awesome.
Secondly. Can you do a company review on Jos. A. Bank? I watched your Brook Brothers company review and quite liked it! I thought it was wonderfully extensive and covered everything very clearly, and I was hoping that somewhere amidst youtube, I could find a video somewhat like it pertaining to Jos. A .Bank. But unfortunately no one can match your digestible and clarified format, so would you make my dreams come true oh fashionable ones?
Also thanks so much if you read this!
Thank you for your support! Jos. A. Bank features in our quickfire review of Ready To Wear suit brands: www.gentlemansgazette.com/ready-to-wear-suit-brands/?
I was only in 3 weddings. 1 was mine, white tie, my sisters black tie and my brothers which suit and tie.
I went to a wedding at St Martin in the Fields. Which is the parish church on Trafalgar Sq in London .. the reception was at the In and Out Club, which was prince Phillips’s club. I wore trousers like Kyle, my old school tie and a DonegAl Tweed jacket to reflect my ancestry. I think I got away with it..,
You forgot to mention a White Dress. A gentleman should NEVER wear a white dress to a wedding.
Taupe perhaps, but never white.
Lots of guests watching live stream wedding ceremonies do actually dress up as if they were there in person.
Yea, and the same basic rules apply to FUNERALS! Black suits and black ties.
Somebody wake up the speaker! Lol. He's putting me to sleep.
Please make a video about What to wear for college student. Not too classic and not too simple or something like that pls
Wait, you mean my idea of dressing as Iron Man and her dressing as Samus from Metroid wasn't a good idea? Just kidding, lads. I'll be wearing Morning Dress in the day and White Tie in the evening, unironically.
As you used the word should I will allow to remember you that the correct etiquete is to dress according the what invitation says and if it doesn't say anything then ask. Then you dress as told. Don't guess. I've seen couples in black tie in classical concerts where the artist uses t shirts. For example in London a concert gala means a special guest artists not a dress code, always ask. Unless you go to the NYE at the Royal Festival and your attire will pass for a costume.
Any idea when to wear gold and when to wear silver accessories etc?
Very traditionally, gold was for daytime, and silver or platinum was for evenings. Those were nineteenth-century rules, though, and now it's just a matter of taste.
which ever matches your eyeglasses or wrist watch.
Supposedly according to What Not to Wear, gold and silver jewelry can be mixed. I think wear what looks good with your outfit.
On ne porte pas de marron avec du bleu.Merci pour votre passionnante video.
Hello the gentlemans gazette,
I was having a discussion with someone about polo shirts paired with a jumper- we fell into disagreement. In your team's view is it acceptable? Can it be stylish? And could you recommend it? And if so why?
Thank you very much for your time,
All the best,
Fyodor.
We've got something in the works all about polo shirts - stay tuned! 😉
@@gentlemansgazette I'll keep an eye on it then! Thanks alot your channels been a great help.
I believe a jumper is something else in the United States. Some form of women's clothing I think. I'm from Australia though so i know what you mean.
@@fosty. yeah I'm from England, I wasnt sure the difference in terms.
I've been a follower of the Gentleman's Gazette for several years and enjoy many of the videos. Your presentations, Mr. Thibodeaux, are very good in appearance but are lacking vocally. I've bit my tongue on commenting for a long time, but not anymore. You speak far too quietly, lacking diaphragmic support and enunciation. You often speak rapidly. The combination of the two makes it difficult to understand you, even with my volume turned up fully on UA-cam and on my desktop PC speaker. It's almost as if you are trying to deliver a talk very quietly & gingerly in the back area of a library. You have impeccable taste, great tact & appearance, and a zest for what you do. It would be simply good to be able to hear you better and thus enjoy your presentation with more clarity. Thanks for understanding.

Background music feels a bit loud in this one
I wish there was a sneaker/dress shoe hybrid that took some of the comfort and support of an athletic shoe and put that inside a dress shoe, (rather than the more common practice of trying to slightly fancy up a sneaker.) I've tried dozens of dress shoes, and they are all excruciatingly painful.
Try suede loafers, there are a few really soft models, which are way more comfortable than most dress shoes(Jay Butler Bit Loafers come to mind), but most models will work. Not the most formal of shoes, but for most situations at least sufficent.
there is, they are called "casual shoes."
A well-made dress shoe will have the comfort and support you're looking for - which brands have you tried so far?
Look into Doc Martens. They have a very rounded toe with incredibly comfortable soles. You can get a high gloss black leather. I pretty much only wear Doc Martens or Birkenstock Bend today. No pointy shoes anymore.
Don’t expect people without foot issues to understand. They never get it. I was in the army for 10 years, and I have heel spurs, bunions, planters fasciitis, etc. I wear custom orthotics in all my shoes.
the bro wore a shirt that was way too small for him at his brothers wedding. pretty funny though seeing his gut all mashed up hahah
In Poland it'd be unthinkable to not wear a suit to a wedding; off-jacket/blazer and slacks/chinos would be passable if you're not close to the bride/groom. The only way it'd be acceptable for those not that close to the newlyweds to wear just a dress shirt and slacks would be if the wedding took place in the summer and it was scorching outside.
Actually this is odd but my son was wearing cute themed clothes because he didn't have wedding clothes! 😂
Is it acceptable to be the only person wearing a formal kilt outfit to a black tie wedding? I have the bride's mother's permission, but I don't want to detract from the ceremony.
also, dispite it being a suit, a birthday suit is rarely appropriate to wear to a wedding.
I generally can't stand weddings. 100% with Jim Gaffigan. But, if I must go, I want to go looking the gentleman. It's disrespectful otherwise.
Double it and give it to the next person
Why am I watching this I'm 15. I should be doing my homework right now! I don't know anyone getting married! Why am I this dumb?!
Edit: thank y'all for your nice comments
Formal dances will be an entryway to this type of dress
You are learning great life lessons, that is why! This way when you do attend a wedding, you will know what to do. I commend you for watching this!
Never call yourself dumb or other people (you like) for that matter as you and they may believe it. Stay positive.
it's never too early to learn useful tips
I was always under the impression that you over dress and if the rest of the guest are casual just take off your tie, roll up your sleeves and carry your jacket.
Do not wear a birthday suit!
None of these rules would apply in Denmark, other than at royal weddings.
Also remember to wear clothes to a wedding
All due respect--thank you for the info presented--that last outfit was not a good one.
As a Texan who has been to “rodeo” weddings, and was even in wedding party say a close friend’s, I would day a better term is a western wedding. It’s more of a culture phenomenon in rural agricultural communities of the south western and western states for people who actually live that lifestyle, and for most it’s not a “theme” for them.

Too bad my fellow Californians break all these rules on a regular basis 😄
I think men shouldn't go to weddings. Unless you are the one marrying, the entire thing is for women only. Save time, save money, don't go. Then you don't even need to choose what you are expected to wear.
Seriously unless you have a companion or are a very close friend of the bride and groom, don’t go.
Those lapels on your jacket are too high up, photographed at that angle looks like you could take off.
I'm going to say it since no one else will (out of politeness): That suit jacket is at least 2 sizes too small and the contrasting lapel buttonhole is very tacky. I think that ignoring this and pretending like this is fine because Kyle has questionable sartorial competence, is bad for the channel's credibility.
Yes you can go alone
Are you asleep? show some enthusiasm and talk up son
Naaaaaaaah bro, cmon dude
How to never be dressed right for a wedding, because money.
The commentary was in a mumbled boring monotone. The outfit he was wearing was ill matched and he needs to pull his striped socks straight.
If y’all didn’t notice. Most ex athletes don’t wear dress shoes because they hurt our feet. Jordan’s and my tuxedo when I get married in September.
The idea is to try to wear dress shoes that fit...
Wear at your wedding whatever you want of course. It won't change anything about the fact that you'll probably look like a prepubescent school boy trying to rebel against that suit and dress shoes mummy told him are appropriate to wear. 🤷♂️
Dress shoes are flat. I spent hundreds on gators , but at 61 I can’t walk in them. Look at Shaq, Kenny, Charles on TNT or even ESPN. Dress shoes ( Dr Martens would be the exception) aren’t very comfortable. So I post my Jordan 37 with my sand color tux when I get married in September.
If the dress code says black tie, for the love of god cut off all contact from the bride and groom. They have no taste or sense of propriety. Black tie is far too casual for what should be one of the most momentous moments of their lives.
bro black tie is more formal than like 98% of every other event nowadays
You people are so out of touch with what matters in this world.
I'm getting married in 2 1/2 weeks. I made my own dress (striped cotton lawn and blue satin trimming) and a shirt and vest to match for my fiance'. He doesn't like feeling strangled, so I put a fancy clasp at his collar instead of having him wear a tie. The groomsmen won't have ties either, even though it's an evening wedding.
