Groomsmen are male attendants chosen to support a groom during a wedding ceremony. Their roles can range from assisting with wedding preparations to standing beside the groom during the ceremony. Groomsmen often participate in planning pre-wedding events like bachelor parties, and may also be tasked with logistical responsibilities on the day of the wedding itself. These duties demonstrate their symbolic function as supporters and confidantes of the groom. Complementing their practical roles, groomsmen contribute to the aesthetic uniformity of a wedding by wearing attire that coordinates with that of the groom.
