Handkerchief. Your handkerchief or pocket square should match both your tieyou’re your cummerbund, especially at a formal occasion. Elegant handkerchiefs and pocket squares from designer Paul Fredrick: http://www.paulfredrick.com
Cummerbund. Though originally designed to catch crumbs at the dinner table, you probably won’t want to soil your nice cummerbund, especially if it’s rented. Again, match the fabric and color to your other accessories, which may also match the color and fabric of bridesmaid’s gowns (for groomsmen).

Suspenders. Tuxedo trousers do not have belt loops. So, for many men, a wedding day is one of the few opportunities to wear classic suspenders. Like the rest of your wedding attire, suspenders should be low key. If you are renting your tuxedo, be sure to request suspenders, since many rental shops do not automatically provide them for you. Choose the right set of suspenders from a selection of hundreds of patterns and fabrics at the Suspender Store: http://www.suspenderstore.com
Tuxedo slippers. Complete your elegant outfit with a set of tuxedo slippers. These slippers don’t come shaped like bunnies and you shouldn’t wear them to bed. Grooms can invest in high quality tuxedo slippers that can be worn at future fancy occasions or kept as keepsakes. Even if you choose less exotic shoes, be sure to select a shoe with a thin sole to complement your tuxedo. The craftspeople at bespoke cobblers Shipton & Heneage can use your own supplied fabric to build custom tuxedo slippers in just six weeks. http://www.shipton-usa.com
Pocket watches. With looks from the twenties and thirties back in fashion, consider topping off your wedding day outfit with a classic pocket watch and chain. Though the chain itself can be plain gold or silver, you can accentuate an outfit with a long chain or a double strand of links. The watch itself can be a classic timepiece or a modern marvel of technology – that’s your own choice. For a modern twist on classic timepieces, select from hundreds of designs at Fossil: http://www.fossil.com
