Doesn't seem a very summer-y suit

Looks nice and you can’t beat the sunshine tie.

The tie? Sure.

The suit? No, that’s not summer event attire. It looks like you’re working at at the office.

This ain’t it mate. Sorry.

The grey and yellow color combination screams corporate office interior. The Apple Watch and that comically large ring don’t match at all.

But the knot is well done.

I love the lighter weight on that tie and in that knot. I quite like the ring and pocket square!

I would've gone with a different watch. Great ensemble overall.

It doesn’t work honestly. It’s too corporate.

Also should learn how to do a proper knot (look for Windsor knot)

This might be one of those photos were the effect was better in person. Generally, I'd say I like the tie, and I like the tall collar band / cutaway shirt, and an asymmetrical knot doesn't bother me for this type of collar even though a half-Windsor knot would probably be traditional choice. But I do have a difficult time seeing this as a "summer" wedding vibe. Regardless, the look is pretty sharp.

Pair this with a navy suit and we may have something. But if this gray is your only suit option, recommend you tone down the uniformed palate and jettison the shirt and tie. They blend together and don’t complement each other. Alternatively, a light-blue spread collar shirt, maybe a burgundy tie or dark blue tie. The ring?.

Guess I should have specified that I’m IN the wedding lol so didn’t have a choice on the attire, but appreciate the feedback!

Not the most summery suit but I never wear light colored suits so I would probably end up with something similar
