Wedding Groom and Groomsmen Style

Some women (cough cough, definitely not me!) put all their thoughts into their own dress and their bridesmaids but then may realize as time ticks on that they haven't thought about the groom/groomsmen! Here are some thoughts I have on the matter.

1) Think about your overall picture - the venue, your dress, the flowers, your bridesmaids. Is it formal? a tux may be the only appropriate option. Is it just leaning on the formal side? Consider a dark grey or black suit instead. Are you hoping for a semi-casual feel? Light grey or navy would be crisp but different. And of course, if you're going for a completely casual feel think about a linen suit or skip the suit and go for slacks and a nice shirt.

2) The time of year will affect your choice too. "How?" you may ask. "It's just a tux or suit," you may say. But think about it, would you want to wear a 2 or 3 piece wool outfit in late spring or summer? Would you want to wear a light linen outfit in the fall or winter? Of course not. Put some thought and consideration into the groomsmen's style and comfort.

3) Try to add some personality! Will the groom have a different look? Can they each wear quirky socks? Patterned ties? Bow ties? The guys don't get to have as much fun as the girls do playing dress up so let them have something to play with!!

Now then - how about some eye-candy with boys this time?!?
