Robin and I got married last year and I knew that I wanted to wear a tuxedo for the ceremony and a dinner jacket for the cocktail hour and reception. As this was a very important day, I wanted everything to be perfect, especially when it came to what I was going to wear.
My criteria for my wedding attire was that it was classic, had some tasteful modern touches as well as some personal aspects to them. As you'll see in this video, no detail was overlooked. From my tuxedo to the dinner jacket, shirts, shoes, suspenders, cuff links, watch, pocket square, cummerbund, socks, ring and even my cologne.
Be sure to watch to the very end for a funny surprise...

Man, i'm speechless at how nice your outfit was... It truly looked amazing. Love the attention to detail, thank you for sharing this!
Appreciate the comment. You're very kind. And you are certainly welcome,
Such a classy look that if you look back 50 years later it will still be the gold standard in formalwear. I'd definitely lean on (read: steal) your ideas if I am to get married in a tux. Congratulations again!
Thank you very much. That was definitely the point. Wanted to look back on and thing, yeah, totally did that right! This video is here to inspire, so if it does inspire you some day, that is the best compliment you can pay. Cheers.
That was beautiful. From the black-gold sartorial appeal of the black tie tuxedo to the the relaxed dinner jacket look. Amazing.
Truly inspiring, Brian. Thanks for sharing such a personal and important aspect of your life. And thanks for bringing up so interesting ideas on men's garment.
You got it, Apolinário! Appreciate the comment and the support. Best to you.
Absolutely brilliant, I'm speechless!
First of congratulations on your marriage. I've been married 23 years myself and can appreciate the desire to make that day perfect. You absolutely nailed it! I said before that your Tux was amazing and superbly done. The nod to Bond with the cuffs was simply incredible. Your dinner jacket is a beautiful piece and could only be worn by a man such as yourself who knows what he's doing. Thank you for sharing all those details of your special day.
You're very kind, Jeff. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave that thoughtful comment. Appreciate it very much. Cheers.
Thanks for sharing so many details about your special day. What a video. Also, congratulations!
Appreciate that very much. Hope to inspire guys to really but some thought and effort into the special day.
Timeless style. Class all the way, congratulations on your special day.
Thank you so much for the nice words. Very much appreciated. And thanks for taking the time to leave a comment. Cheers.
I’m getting married next year. Thank you for this video! Demonstrates the intention i want to put into my looks as well. Great choices and I’ll be taking some as well 😁. Now it's time for me to.get to work.
Thanks for sharing the details of your thought process that led up to that exquisite tux and dinner jacket! Perfection! The down side is that now I need a time machine so that I can go back and re-think some of my own wedding details. lol But it's all good - evolving means being able to find perfection in the imperfection and having zero regrets. :-) Great job Brian!
You’re very welcome. Thanks, as always, Ron!
Great selections all around. Good job.
Many thanks. Appreciate the comment.
Luv the details and that was the perfect watch, simple and clean.
Really doesn't get much better than that. Appreciate the comment.
You look like a very nice person…very humble…congrats of a follower of your channel from Barcelona. Thank you!
The most special of days done right - incredible! 👏🏻
Many thanks, sir. Appreciate the comment.
The touch of the turn back cuff on the suit coat is awesome!
Watching this on my wedding day. Great look!
Congrats man! So proud of you!
Many thanks, Jeff.
Great choices, especially loved the dinner jacket.
Many thanks, Randall! That dinner jacket was absolutely everything I wanted. Dominic did such a fantastic job. Appreciate the comment.
Love this and how much work you put into it, no detail not considered. For some odd reason do end up with getting married, have had the thought for years wouldn't be like the other folks including my Dad and rent something just for that day, plus fit who I am especially the archetype (half rigged and half refined). And here you have done just that, worn something you will wear again and who you are, well done!
Thanks so much for the comment, Adriel. Honored to inspire. Cheers and best wishes to you.
Another great video, continued blessings on your union.
You're very kind. Thank you so much for the nice words.
Elegant! And belated congrats on the wedding
Thank you very much. Appreciate the comment.
Never thought that so much thought goes into getting your wedding tuxedo... Absolutely superb vid!!! Congratulations to the wonderful two of you!!!
Well, one certainly doesn't have to put this kind of effort in, but I feel like it is such a big day, that you owe it to yourself (and your wife!) to put that kind of thought into. I'm also a very detail-oriented person, so it's kind of second nature.
@@hespokestyle But you have inspired me, Brian. Now that I have seen this video, its gonnabe impossible for me to overlook the details when I am gonna buy my wedding tux and look like the best version of myself. Thank you!!! Keep rocking!!!
Phenomenal, Brian. Thumbs up.
Absolutely big fan of your style 👌🏼Thank You!
Appreciate that so much. Thanks for the comment.
Amazing dinner suit. Gauntlet cuffs are my favourite feature/embellishment on a dinner jacket.
Many thanks!
I want my wedding day to be this perfect. Classic ♥️
You're very kind. Thanks for the comment.
Very beautiful outfits, both of you! I have the same moire Albert Thurston braces. Always gets compliments.
Thank you so much, Jay. You're very kind. Aren't those braces fantastic?
Damn! Every detail was definitely well thought out! IMO the double breasted tux jacket was an awesome choice. Exactly what you were going for - elegant and classic with a modern refinement!
Thanks, man! Just the way I am. No detail overlooked. Especially on that day!
Congratulations! Great tux. Very classy and stylish~
Thanks so much, Lon. Appreciate the comment. Best to you.
REALLY GREAT VIDEO AND EXPERIENCE, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!, from León, Guanajuato, Mexico!!
Wonderful! Thanks for sharing all the details, your sons will be proud of you, love the last pic! She has beautiful hands 😁.
Bonus points for catching that! Will pass along your comment. 😀
Perfect for grabbing 🍑. 🙃

Congratulations, Brian!
The tux looks great.
I like the frames you're wearing in this video too!!
Thank you so much! Frames are Tom Ford. Have had them for a while but just decided to break them out again recently.
@@hespokestyle yeap, I remember seeing them some time ago. Good to see them again.
@@qarhsi Thanks!
man what an amazing tuxedi!
Very elegant. We went for morning dress for my wedding. Never had another opportunity to wear it again but it made for some nice photos. Lol.
Amazing! You have some photos to share here? My guy from Michael Andrews Bespoke, Cory, married an English girl and he did morning dress as well. Would love to do it some day, but I don't know when I'd ever wear it.
EXCELLENT choice in fragrance! 💯 👍👍
Glad you think so! It was perfect for the day.
Wow that's so cool that you have a spouse. So cool guy!
DAMN bro. Fly as hell. Amazing choices
Tux was on point great style you spoke.
Haha! Thanks, Jimmy. Appreciate the comment.
Love the details and thanks for sharing! Would you mind sharing the fabric for the sexton DB shawl jacket? Its amazing! I'm suspecting cream fox flannel?
Hi Brian, I am in love with the frames you are wearing! Can you please tell me the exact Tom Ford model as the link in the description is no longer working. Pleaseeee
This is so beautiful
B. Alex thank you, sir.
Well done!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thanks so much. Appreciate the comment.
Beautiful!
Many thanks! Appreciate the comment.
Great choices!
Thanks, Jakub. Appreciate the comment.
Amazing!!! So inspirational..❤️D.
Beautiful tux I'm in the process of making mine in black also and think I will follow you into the 4 1/2 a half inch wide grosgrain lapel and thin stripe on the slacks. It think it gives it an extra luxurious look. I am keeping the pocket opening material like material as the jacket. You have a good point there and its a cleaner look this way. Im not doing anything with the cuffs
but I like the fact that you did such an awesome job with it. I found a lady here west of Boton who does custom bow ties and she made me a gorgeous black oversized grosgrain bow tie to go with it for $80. I got a special custom pair of tux shoes from Liam Michael shoes to compliment the whole thing. Now to get out there and wear it.........🙂
Amazingly done, 10/10 on every detail. Love your attention to detail on all your outfits. I always say all these small details on their own make a small difference but together they are what elevates a well dressed man to an amazingly well dressed man. It adds that factor that a person not in the know can not pinpoint a single detail but it just "feels and looks" better for some reason.
Personally will not be wearing a Tuxedo to my upcoming wedding as I would never use it again and it would be a shame to spend upwards of 1500$ on a beautiful piece that would see no wear. I'm still looking at my options, do you have any recommendations? Thinking of something double breasted with a vest.
Wow, man! Your actual life is like my sartorial fantasies come true! I am simply blown away by each choice, regarding each detail!
Now all I need to do is rob a bank and I'll get right back atcha!
Haha! You're too kind. Thank you for the nice words, Sebastian.
damn, just damn. What an incredible eye for detail
Appreciate the comment, John. I am always very detail-oriented, but this had to be next level!
Great video! I also like your sense of taste in fragrance, I'd like to see more videos on fragrance!
Thanks so much. Check out the video on holiday time fragrances I just did: ua-cam.com/video/dgTYP1ckhMM/v-deo.html
I wouldn't consider myself a full-fledged, hardcore fraghead, but I do appreciate interesting and well-made fragrances. Always open to recommendations!
@@hespokestyle I've already viewed and appreciated when posted. I think you have a bigger fragrance culture than some other youtubers who only list fragrances in order of girls appreciation.
Hahaha. Well, I'm married so I don't care about that!
Great idea for a video!
Thanks and appreciate the comment.
Been watching your videos for a few months now, but I am astounded at how effortlessly classy your videos and your style is. From your EDC video to your gym bag video, there is a lot more going on here than in any menswear youtuber that I'm familiar with.
You should do an interview more about yourself. I'm very interested in hearing the background of a guy who casually says shit like "this bespoke company that's been making clothing for me for years" or drives BMWs in europe.
9:29 best picture of the day. Congratulations for having found the right one.
I can't take my eyes off that Datograph.
You're forgiven!
Outstanding. The attention to detail is inspiring.
Thank you very much!
@@hespokestyle Brian, it's you who deserves the thanks and appreciation. You bring a level of class, style and sophistication to the subjects you cover that are unmatched by anyone else on your platform(s). Your content is very informative (which is the goal) but is also entertaining and fun to watch without resorting to the tackey gimmicks used by some others. I know new and relevant content can be hard to come up with but you seem to make it look easy. Thanks for all the time and effort you put into your channel. It's ubiquitous to the thought, time and effort put into your tuxedo and it definitely shows.
Thank-you Brian.
The watch im getting despite style rules I might be breaking is the JAZZMASTER
OPEN HEART AUTO by hamilton, white face, with rose gold trim, I will be switching out the brown leather band for a black alligator leather strap.
Well done!
Many thanks!
Amazing! So much attention to detail. I am a British Asian and I had my suit - a sherwani - made in India by Lals of London. It had to match with the season and the venue, a Cheshire farm in the British summertime, but it also had fo reflect my Bengali culture, so it was a muted and off white pastel-type colour with a regal feel. Even the way I held my shawl (scarf) mattered that day. #TeamAttentionToDetail
Thanks for chiming in! And your outfit sounds amazing as well. Have a photo you could share here?
He Spoke Style I have messaged you on instagram. But even better, check out out “trailer” which the videographers made before giving us the full video. You’ll see we have 2 events, the wedding hosted by the bride’s family and then the walima hosted by the groom’s. The outfit I’m referring to is the first one you’ll see! ua-cam.com/video/_0fn4sUUXrQ/v-deo.html
Amazing! Thank you so much for sharing!
Do you recommend a satin or velvet bow tie for my wedding tux? It’s a black velvet jacket with a satin shawl.
U both look great
I am gonna finally buy a tuxedo. Can you recommend a tailor in the Savannah GA area?
So sorry, I'm new to this channel, but you're so much into these style questions that I really wonder one thing: (at least) in Europe (from where I am), a Tux is considdered to be worn after 06:00 p.m. only (exceptions for weddings after 4:00 p.m. - did you get married that late?). The equivalent to the tux for the day is the "Stresemann" suit (almost identical to a cutaway, however with simpler black / charcoal jacket). The most formal suit would be the cutaway during the day and the tailcoat ("white tie") for the evening / night events.
The other thing I was a little surprised about is that you say, stand-up collar shirts are not worn with a tux. I checked and found in my books that the stand-up collar shirts are particularly to be worn with a tux... .
A really funny thing is the bow tie that you showed with that clip. Never seen this before. Usually, you get them ready tied with a latch (?) and adjustable over here. Looks quite funny when worn with a stand up collar since this is visible. However, most people I know have it like this. And when you even go to a high end haberdasher and ask for a bow tie to tie by oneself, first thing is that the salespersons raise their eyebrows... .
Just btw: Guess, the surprise at the end is that Robin is either grabbing your but - or maybe, she's just checking on your wallet ... :-) - actually both not exactly good manners... :-) - more a joke, I guess...
This outfit can‘t be any better.
You're very kind. Thank you for the comment.
What are your thoughts on a velvet slipper with a navy blue tuxedo?
I'm getting married and thinking of getting a suit made however something that's fancy but also can be used semi regularly.
Can you please share some style suggestions. Preferred 3 pc suits
Beautiful 👍
the ending - grab that @... is very creative :)
Very Impressive I really like the Black Double Breasted Tuxedo details and Ivory Double Breasted Smoking Jacket details.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
My Pleasure.
Love You Brian
Haha Cheers!
The slim sleeves, with the roped shoulder... just gorgeous... Imagine this silhouette in a DB Flanell.... breathtaking! Would love a series focused on eyewear! How did you come by your cubitts frames btw? Did you visit London? Or purchase the frames at a retailer?
Really appreciate the comment, Arnold! Cubitts frames... I forget where I first saw them, but I'd been looking for that shape--I have the Herbrand--for a while. Kind of Oliver Peoples-esque but without the hefty price tag. Not opposed to paying for well-made products, but I also like to support really fantastic start-up brands, especially ones that are putting out a high-quality product.
I was gifted Black Afgano and I plan on using it on my wedding day. Is it a good fragrance for mid Sep wedding?
Wearing a Lange, Datograph no less. Enough said.
Haha. Thanks, Donny. I feel very fortunate to have that Dato.
Proper tuxedo protocol is to wear no wristwatch. A pocket watch is acceptable.
@@davel8033 Donny is referring to the watch I'm wearing during the talking portions. However, on the topic of not wearing a watch with a tuxedo--that is a total myth. I wrote an entire post on it previously, discussing both sides of the argument. You can read that here: hespokestyle.com/black-tie-watch/
However, I will bring it right to the point here with this quote from Alan Flusser, who literally wrote the book on men's style:
"Simplicity should govern the choice of jewelry for formal wear. Studs and matching cufflinks can be made of plain gold, black enamel, or semi-precious stone. Mother-of-pearl, also handsome, is perhaps more appropriate for white tie. Fine sets of studs and matching cufflinks can be found in antique shops that specialize in old jewelry (the most interesting examples are those made between 1890 and 1930). You might also look for a gold pocket watch and chain. If you choose to wear a wristwatch, remember that the thinner the watch, the more tasteful it is. Black bands are recommended.”
If you want to disagree with Mr. Flusser, be my guest! But I'm inclined to heed his advice. BUT, as in all matters of style, it's a personal choice. So if you don't want to wear a watch with a tux, that's fine.
@@hespokestyle And here i've been wearing a 119 year old pocket watch for all black tie events that my father passed to me...Thanks for your response and I'm glad I learned something new. Keep up the good work.
@@davel8033 What a cool watch to have. You got it, man! Thanks for the support.
you looked pretty sharp! great video :)
That's very kind of you to say. Thanks for the support!
The PERFECT watch to wear is imo the Credor eichi 2
Thanks for the comment.
Dude, you look so sharp in both jacket!
Thank you, sire! (Not a typo, since your name is King... 😜)
darn he is friends with everyone... you are very well connected my friend lol
Nice print of Clark Gable on the wall back there. His tailor, Eddie Schmidt, was a sartorial demi-god. Snug armholes, nipped waist, correct button stance/x-point and drape.
Why, thank you! Good eye! Where'd you get your knowledge about Eddie Schmidt?

Amazing! Thanks for sharing.
The best felling of knowing how to dress well is when you do it for the people you love
Well said, my man. Thanks for the comment.
Creed's Spice and Wood is a good formal occasion scent, but on a very muggy hot day? Maybe Creed's Royal Water.
Fresh!!!
Thanks so much! Appreciate the comment.

@@hespokestyle
Fantastic flourishes! Very Tony Stark. Love the papillon/butterfly bow tie meaning. Minor trivia for a style and watch lover related to weddings. Prince William wore an Omega Seamaster (mid size no less), to his. I own this very watch and am first to admit is not the pinnacle of watch sophistication, but for him it had sentimental value, which goes to show that style is as much about personal meaning and sentimental substance, as it is chasing trends... I also mention because I bought this watch while living in the Bahamas, and I love the fun inside nods to Bond and British royalty. Yet another tie-in to fun with fit, trends, and legacy of the style giants who precede. Great content! All the best on the marriage and beyond.
Many thanks, David!
I don't really know what the difference is between the fabric mills. Is there a reason why dormeuil tonik is better than the rest for Tuxedos?
nice
You should do a list of most stylish movies or scenes from moies
since you were so inspired by the bond look I kinda wish you had worn a tool watch. Bond might be looking dapper in a tux but he's always ready for whatever the night might throw at him. Something with a thin case but tooly at the same time would have been perfect.
I mean, a tux is a tux is a tux in some ways--many have worn one other than Bond! When it comes to style like that, I'm not about trying to match that style exactly. For me, it's a little obvious if someone wears a tux and throws on a Sub, you know? I like everything to be in harmony. And for me, that's a thin, time-only watch.
Luv ur silky socks
Do you normally get a full canvas or half canvas tux?
Hi Buddy...where do i get good Suspenders online. Please advise.
Bravo 👏👏👏
Question...with the second outfit, were the black suede shoes the only option? Just curious...
Thank you very much! Do you mean, could I have worn different shoes and it would still work? If so, the answer is yes. I could have stuck with the patent loafers, but I wanted it to be more casual so I switched to the suede.
Adding a vent is a bold choice but I have to say it looks good and more contemporary
Much more contemporary.
Great video, you remind me a lot of G-Eazy!!!
Wow!
Thanks, Tyrone. Like that reaction....
@@hespokestyle I have no words, lol. Just amazing taste/attention to detail Brian.
🙏
Hey Brian, quick question, the glasses you wore throughout the video; are they prescription? I don't need prescription glasses but would love to wear 'clear' lens glasses, what are your thoughts?
They're by Tom Ford: shopstyle.it/l/XohG
Most of my glasses are prescription, though I do have a couple pairs with clear, non-Rx lenses.
Question: why do you wear cummerbund if you wear also double-breasted jacket? As far I know cummberbund is not required for this type of jacket because in comparison to single-breasted jacket, this one is worn with tied button all the time. Thank you for answering my question in advance.
Greetings.
Did you wear a different pair of pants with your white dinner jacket, or were they the same as the ones you wore with your tuxedo? Thinking of doing a similar thing for my wedding next year.
Same ones!
@@hespokestyle Whew, thank goodness!
I have another question,
I am trying to find a self bow tie and cummerbund set in faille/grosgrain. It seems like matching bow tie and cummerbund sets seem to all come with a pre tied bow tie, which won’t work. I am worried about buying the two separately because I was afraid of the blacks clashing. Also…how necessary is getting a white pair of braces for the dinner jacket?
Thank you for sharing this beautiful memory with us. Your tuxedo is really sharp and elegant, but I have a question why didn't you go for a shawl lapel ? peak lapel is really formal but shawl lapel is in the top of both peak and notch lapels . And what I know is a tuxedo should always be with shawl lapel next to the dinner jacket.
First, thanks for your nice comment. You're very welcome. Hope to inspire others to put the same type of thought into a garment for their special day. Second, where did you get your information that a tux should only have a shawl lapel? That's quite incorrect. Tuxedos can have any kind of lapel, including notched, peak, or shawl. The lapel style you go with is a personal choice and has a lot to do with how you want the tuxedo to project itself. I own both a single and double-breasted tux, both have a peak. I like the structure and formality and it was what I wanted. A shawl lapel is always elegant, but more relaxed, in my opinion, which is why I chose that style for the dinner jacket. When the time comes that I get into a midnight blue tux, I will probably do a shawl lapel. There really aren't any wrong choices--it's more about what you want to project.
@@hespokestyle I said that because as we both know the tuxedo is the most formal men's wear peace so it should be combined with the most formal peak lapel which is shawl. But as you told me it's a question of taste, because at the end they are all tuxedos and you should only wear the style that you like the most.
Thank you for correcting me and for the new information ❤
Actually there are more formal dress codes than "black tie"
@@jleo9815 You got it, brother. You may find this article helpful: hespokestyle.com/suit-jacket-lapel-styles-guide/
@@fp4640 That's true. White tie and morning dress come to mind.
You looked great on your wedding day. However, I think the dinner jacket needed to be more fitted. Great video 👍
Many thanks, Sony. Re the dinner jacket: our preferences are different. So we'll have to agree to disagree. Yours can be more fitted. I like mine as is!
All the links under your tuxedo and dinner jacket (in the video description) point to Uniqlo turtleneck 🤔
Ah, my bad! Thanks for pointing that out. Will update. Cheers.
