When talking about Assamese wedding dress ideas for men, we cannot help but mention how Assamese are a huge fan of silk. Most of their outfits, especially wedding outfits, are beautifully designed in Muga silk, a speciality of the state.
While there is a standard, signature outfit for the grooms - a kurta, dhoti, and an Assamese style shawl (known as Cheleng) that they style around the neck; some grooms like to pick a more stylish and fancier wedding dress option.
So whether you want to opt for the traditional attire or you are someone who can't settle for the tried and tested, we have got the perfect options for you.
Strike A Pose With Your Partner In This Traditional Outfit
When your partner is looking like an absolute stunner in her traditional Assamese wedding dress, why should you hold back from looking dapper? Put on a Muga silk kurta with gold zari thread work, a white dhoti, and the Cheleng around your neck, and strike the perfect pose with your partner.
Ask her about the base colour of her wedding saree and colour coordinate accordingly because while the popular colour is off-white, some people like to choose a white base as well.
Gosh, we can already tell you how amazing and aesthetically pleasing the photographs will be.
Go On And Experiment With Your Look

Ditch the off-white Muga kurta and dhoti for a super cool golden kurta and pant set. This golden Muga kurta with red thread embroidery work on the neck and sleeves goes perfectly with the well-tailored pant. Add a turban (or Pag) to this look, and you have got yourself the perfect traditional Assamese wedding dress with a modern twist.
This dress idea makes for the go-to option for the grooms who are not super comfortable wearing a dhoti. The pant has a more casual look and a comfortable feel to it, which works as the perfect alternative for the groom who wants to follow the traditions but doesn't want to give up on his comfort entirely.
Add A Pag To Your Signature Outfit

Traditionally, the groom's Assamese wedding dress is accessorised with some flowers and basil leaves, but you can choose to replace the floral head accessory with a beautiful Pag (or turban). The Pag is a smart accessory, and it makes the groom look classy in a traditional way.
And while most grooms choose the same coloured Muga silk fabric for their kurta as well as for the Pag, you can always ditch the regular off-white, white, and other light colours for something brighter like red or even green.
