“How Is The Bride Okay With This?”: 35 Grooms That Deserved To Be Shamed For Their Looks

Your wedding is meant to be one of the happiest days of your life. Although you have to be somewhat realistic with your expectations, you still want to make the celebration as meaningful, beautiful, and authentic as you can. That also includes showing off the best possible version of yourself through what you choose to wear.

However, the reality is that some people can’t be bothered to put in the effort, even when it’s their own wedding. Our team at Bored Panda has collected pictures of the most underdressed grooms that guests have ever seen. This goes beyond embracing an easygoing wardrobe or opting for a slightly more casual tone. Scroll down to see some fashion disasters and how drearily shorts, crocs, and T-shirts look next to gorgeous dresses. Just remember, the point isn’t to make fun of anyone—it’s a reminder that many of us could stand to brush up our fashion sense and self-awareness a bit.

Bored Panda reached out to Jessica Harvey, the director of Suave Owl Menswear, for some advice for grooms who want to wear a slightly more casual style at their wedding. She was kind enough to share some practical advice on what to avoid doing. Read on for her insights.
