I have enlisted below the various choices for the Indian Wedding Outfits for Men (especially The Bride’s/Groom’s Brother) which ranges from classic suit to experimental polo pants. Let u have a look at the list.

1. Classic Suit look –

Nothing beats the classic! A well tailored suit for the handsome brother of the bride and groom is seriously unmatchable. If the wedding is a morning occasion, try the soothing colors like sky blue and white with perfectly gelled hair. For the night occasion, one can opt for black textured satin, perhaps, with a shawl collar and flapless pockets.

Dhoti is one of the most worn traditional Indian wear for men but it’s difficult to carry. Well, we have a solution! The dhoti pants with the flare of dhoti gives you the perfect illusion and can be easily and stylishly paired with bandhgala, kurta, sherwani or Nehru jacket for any wedding occasion.
