Quick Answer: What Big & Tall Men Should Wear to a Wedding
Follow the dress code, then focus on fit. For grooms and groomsmen, suit separates are the easiest way to dress a wedding party of different builds in matching suits. Guests can wear a suit, or a sport jacket with dress pants for less formal weddings. Add an extra-long tie and a pocket square to finish.
