What does the father of the bride wear?

Does the father of the bride usually have a tux (or suit) to kinda match the groom and groomsmen? I mean, he doesn't have to look exactly like the groomsmen, but if the guys are all wearing blue as their accent color, does my dad do the same thing? Thanks!

Typically the father of the bride wears a tux. If the father is escorting his daughter, then he dresses like the men in the wedding party because of his visible role. One way to help him feel more included and to distinguish him from the other guests is to have him dress similarly to the men in the wedding party. (Often times they are not categorized as a part of the wedding party.) Congrats and Good Luck!

Most of the time, the father of the bride skips an accent color and goes with plain black/gray (depending on the color of the tux). If you do have an accent color, the accent color needs to match the mother of the bride, but shouldn't clash with the groom and groomsmen. Most of the time the father of the bride wears a tux. There are several styles of tuxes, not all are uber formal. Occassionally, he'll just wear a nice suit.

It doesn't have to match the groomsmen, they usually just wear a nice suit. Both of our fathers are wearing a grey suit and the groomsmen are wearing black suits. If you want him to match the party then by all means go ahead I think its cute

if its uber formal a tux is the only option

formal to semi formal: a suit is his best bet.

casual: dress pants and a dress shirt

uber casual: whatever.

no the colors dont need to match the groomsmen

My dad and father in law both wore tuxes like the groom and groomsmen but the vests and ties were a different color.

No usually the father's both bride and grooms Dads wear a tux. But with white shirt black tie and black vest.

the dad would just wear a plain tux usually, unless you want something else
