  • What Should the Fathers of the Bride and Groom Wear for a Wedding?
    Jan 2 2025

    Father Wedding Attire

    Over the past several years, the most popular wedding suit and tuxedo blog on Darianna® Bridal & Tuxedo's website has been What Should the Fathers of the Bride and Groom Wear for a Wedding? It makes sense to us because brides and grooms are often focused on the groom and groomsmen, at least initially.

    The Darianna® Diaries

    Given the popularity of this subject, we thought it would be perfect to do a podcast on fathers' wedding attire. We cover everything in the blog and even touch on subjects that are not covered in the blog.

    Be informed about how to dress the fathers of a wedding before you start your tuxedo and suit search for your wedding. The podcast and blog will give you guidelines, ideas and creative ways to make the dads feel special.

    Ask Us Anything

    The owners and staff of Darianna® Bridal & Tuxedo dress thousands of grooms, groomsmen, fathers, grandfathers, ring bearers and wedding attendees every year. If you have a wedding attire questions, text us at 215-491-8500 and we will be happy to personally answer you.
