The Lookbook by Halberstadt’s Clothing

Three real grooms, three very different looks, and how Halberstadt’s Clothing dresses the whole wedding party across six North Dakota stores.

From the first photo to the last dance, a groom’s look should feel like him. Halberstadt’s Clothing starts with the couple’s vision, then coordinates the details across six North Dakota stores.

Real Groom: Tommy

Black tie, summer edition.

  • The Velvet Bow Tie: Black velvet and a matching pocket square bring texture to ivory.

  • The Dinner Jacket: An ivory shawl collar lightens up black tie for a summer ceremony.

Look Two: For the reception, Tommy switched into a classic black tux.

Made for Him: The Custom Suit

Jacob’s blue windowpane suit pairs a tailored silhouette with light accessories. Halberstadt’s Clothing’s custom service lets a groom choose the fabric and finishing details, creating a suit he can wear well beyond the wedding.

  • The Details: Collar, cuffs, lining and buttons, plus a personal monogram.

  • The Fabric: A blue windowpane check brings subtle pattern to a tailored silhouette.

  • The Finish: Tan loafers and a brown belt warm up the blue for an outdoor ceremony.

How Custom Works

  1. Book a consult. Talk through the wedding, setting and look.

  2. Get measured. Measurements guide the shape and fit.

  3. Choose details. Select fabric, lining, buttons and more.

  4. Order + fit. Made to order, then fitted and tailored.

Start custom two to three months out to leave time for a final try-on.

The Classic

Eric kept it timeless: a black suit, a crisp white shirt and a black tie. It’s also one of the easiest looks for a wedding party to match, from the best man to the youngest usher.

  • The Tie Bar: A slim silver bar keeps the tie in place through hugs, photos and the first dance.

  • The White Rose: A single white rose boutonnière. With a black suit, one clean accent is enough.

The look that never dates in photos.

Dress the Whole Party

01. Wedding Party Packages, Starting at $269

Basic package colors: Black, charcoal, light grey, blue and tan.

They’re purchases, not rentals, so every groomsman goes home with a suit he’ll wear again.

02. Fittings at Any of Six Stores

Each groomsman gets what to wear and how to get fitted. He’s measured at whichever store is closest, and all six share the details so the party matches on the day.

03. Tailoring, Rehearsal + Gifts

In-house tailoring at every store, sport coats for the rehearsal dinner, and groomsmen gifts.
