This is a trope about fictional portrayals of gay men's weddings, in which one of them will invariably be wearing a white tuxedo, and the other a black tuxedo. The reason for this trope is that a white tuxedo functions as a man's take on the bride's white dress. Sometimes, a Gender Flip will be seen in which two women marry and one of them, usually a Butch Lesbian, wears a black tuxedo, pantsuit, or skirt suit while the other, often a Lipstick Lesbian, wears a traditional wedding dress. While the lesbian variant is popular in real life, for men this became a Discredited Trope once more open gay men started telling their own stories. One need only take a look at the wedding blog Men's Vows to learn that it's far more common for gay male grooms to either wear matching suits or their respective favorite colors to their wedding, specifically to avoid implying that one of them is the "bride." Even if one of them is a professional Drag Queen, he'll still wear a suit to his wedding rather than a Fairytale Wedding Dress, since it's the actual person getting married and not the stage persona. See also Masculine–Feminine Gay Couple, another trope in which same-sex couples play opposite-sex roles. |

Story of Seasons: Zig-zagged In Story of Seasons: Friends of Mineral Town. Both the female player character and their chosen bachelorette will wear white dresses in a gay/"Best Friend" wedding, but the male player character wears a white tux regardless of the spouse's gender. Story of Seasons: Pioneers of Olive Town allows the Player Character to choose between several wedding outfits, the two male-coded ones being a black tux and a light gray tux. Meanwhile, each potential groom will show up at the wedding in a different outfit, resulting in this trope being possible, but hard to plan for unless the Non-Player Character groom's outfit, which is supposed to be a surprise during normal gameplay, is known in advance. For the record and extra context: Ralph's tux has a white jacket (and black pants), while Emilio's is completely white, so the straight version will happen if the Player Character groom picks the black tux. A downplayed version induced by the Player Character groom picking the light gray tux can happen if the other groom is Damon, who wears a black tux. Jack will show up in a navy blue tux and Iori in a colorful Far East style outfit respectively, which keeps the trope from happening in any shape of form. |

Gender Inverted example in Alan Ford: when co-protagonist Minuette Macon temporarly divorces Alan to marry the Baroness Isolde Von Strascen note (in context, the Baroness has to marry in order to get her hands on a billion euro for herself, and because Alan was too honest to accept and the will didn't say anything about marrying another woman Minuette offered herself in exchange for a hundred million dollars), the former wears a very feminine dress with a diadem, the Baroness is impeccably dressed in a groom's tuxedo. | |

I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry (pictured): Despite being the page image, this is actually a major subversion as the titular "grooms" (Adam Sandler and Kevin James, respectively) are both really heterosexual friends only posing as a married gay couple so that Larry's kids can be insurance beneficiaries due to a bizarre coverage policy. | |

When Ruby and Sapphire get married in Steven Universe, the usual conventions are reversed: the more butch of the two is the one wearing the wedding dress, while the more feminine one wears the tuxedo. When they fuse after the wedding, Garnet wears a snazzy tux/dress combo. | |
