Do they wear a suit, a tuxedo, or what? If they do wear a tuxedo are they different from the groomsmen? Also, is the grooms tuxedo usually a little different from the groomsmen or all the same? Thank you so much!

Well, generally the groom's tux is just a little different from the groomsmen's. Just a different color vest or something like that so that guests can tell who is the groom and who are groomsmen. Most of the time the father of the bride wears a tux like the groomsmen since he has a part in the wedding. The father of the groom may wear just a suit or a tux along the same lines. If you wanted, the fathers' tuxes could also be slightly different from the groomsmen's.
Good luck!

Depends on the rest of the wedding party! If everyone else is in a tux, the fathers should be in a tux as well. Same tux or different tux doesn't matter and is up to you. Frequently they all wear the same tux. However the bride's father--if walking her down the aisle--is a member of the wedding party and should be dressed accordingly.
I have been to afternoon weddings when the groom did not wear the same tux as the groomsmen and in which case, the fathers can wear either tux--but often wears the same as the groom since its dressier.
I had my father's in the same vest as the groomsmen but b/c they were in silver vests. Had they had blue or green vests, I probably still would have used silver for the fathers.

Occasionally, the Groom will wear a different style or color of tie but other than that ALL OF THE MEN should wear the same style of tuxedo or suit as the Groom, and that includes the Bride's father and the Groom's father.
The style is determined by the level of formality . . the season . . the setting or location . . and the time of day.
Any experienced employee of a men's formal wear store should be able to give you information, advice and recommendations. They are there to help you!
Need to order "formal wear" at least 6 - 8 weeks in advance of the wedding. Do NOT buy or rent a "cheap suit." Cheap suits and cheap tuxedos look CHEAP. Go up to the next price level, it will look so much better!
Ultraformal . . gentlemen wear a tailcoat
Formal . . gentlemen wear a tuxedo
Semiformal . . gentlemen wear a dark suit, lighter colored suit if you are getting married in the summer or in a warm climate
Casual or informal . . jeans . . shorts . . linen slacks . . leather pants . . bathing suit . . chinos . . cargo pants . . hawaiian shirt and white slacks

I used to work in a tux shop, and here is what we would always tell the wedding folks. They should all have the same tux, as in same coat and pants and vest, ect. The groom should match the bride, so if she is wearing white, his vest/tie would be white. The groomsmen's vest and ties should be the wedding color. The father's should wear the tux with black vests/ties. This is just a very traditional thing. If the fathers are not involved (bride's father in escorting her and groom's father in escorting mother or grandmother) than nice suits are appropriate instead of tuxes. Remember that this is just the traditional way to do it, so you can venture out a little if you wish. COngratulations and hope this helped!

The fathers can wear a tuxedo if the groomsmen are too. The fathers don't have to wear the same tuxedo. The groom can wear the same or a different tux from the groomsmen and the fathers.

I would have them wear a tux also. But, if you have two colors for your wedding, I would have them wear the opposite color of the groomsmen. For example, the groomsmen are wearing a blue vest and tie, I would have the father wear a silver vest and tie. It just sets them off a little bit from the groomsmen but also recognizes that they are a big part of the wedding. I would also do the same for the groom. Have him wear the silver instead of the blue so he is recognized differently also. You could just change the color of the flower they wear. All of the actual tuxes should be the same.

The fathers can wear a nice suit and tie. If it is very formal, then they can wear a tuxedo, just slighty different. Also a different coloured buttonhole would be good.
The groom often does have a different tux to the groomsmen, but I have also seen them the same.
