While plethora of options available for women when it comes to wedding guest outfits or attires, there are only handful of them available for men. One of the reasons is that men tends to stick to the tried and tested formals or traditional wear for ages but recently, there are various ethnic outfit inspirations have come up for the wedding guest outfits or attires for men. Choosing a Indian wedding outfit for the bride or groom’s brother can be slightly difficult. One has to choose the attire cautiously which should not overshadow the outfit of the groom but it should be unique and stylish enough. 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.

Team up the slightly flared polo pants with a well-fitted or tailored jacket or coat on top. The look is extremely elegant and stylish.

9. Royal Look

I drooled on this look worn by the charming Fawad Khan who walked for Manish Malhotra for the collection inspired by the fabled land of Persia. This look is absolutely resplendent with a long, flowing bandhgala frock-kurta that has every bit of glamour and grandeur, it was paired with a maroon wrapped tunic.

10. Dhoti Pants

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.
