What does the modern eco groom wear?

Morning dress is the traditional choice for the groom and very fine it is too. But you may want to choose something that reflects your individuality.

While a groom's wedding outfit may not be as scrutinised as the bride's, it doesn't mean he'll go unnoticed. There is morning dress, the dinner jacket, lounge or modern suit. But these days, as dress codes ease up, outfits to reflect a modern groom's individual tastes are becoming very chic.
A word of advice though, make sure your outfit complements your bride's.

If you go the more traditional route a cost effective and ethical choice would be to hire a formal outfit. There is a wide choice of mens formalwear hire shops which offer a good selection outfits including kilts.

Alternatively you could search the charity shops, vintage boutiques and web auction sites for a more individual choice.

If you prefer to splash out on something special then seek out an ethical retailer stocking suits and shirts made in 100% wool, linen or organic cotton from fairly traded sources.
