Custom Floral Tie for the Groom

The bride as well as the groom are the most eye-catching parts of the wedding. So the groom attire can not be neglected simply. Since the groom attire is composed of only several parts, which is really simple and unsophisticated, it is quite necessary to add more brilliance to the groom attire. In the wedding between Shelli and Chris, the bride chose a custom floral tie for her groom, which was so impressive and glamorous.

Someone may view that a floral tie is too feminine and will bring the groom a sense of playboy or sissy. However, a floral tie for a groom on his wedding can only be considered as a kind of concession for his love for bride. What's more, in order to match with the bride attire and the wedding theme, a floral tie can be necessary. In this wedding, the whole groom attire matched so well with the bride attire from the floral tie to the white floral boutonniere. The bridal wedding shoes was in harmony with the floral groom tie and the white flower on the bride's head went well with the groom boutonniere made of a white flower.

Be A Better You On Your Wedding Day

I have been to black tie weddings, formal weddings, semi formal weddings, beach weddings and back yard weddings.  All of these weddings have a few things in common: "What the hell kind of suit do I wear?"  I am of the opinion that if your bride is in a wedding dress, you should be in a suit of some sort, not included are casual weddings, shorts, t-shirts, etc... I have also noticed that some guys just don't know how to choose well fitted suits, today I want to give some advices about how to get a formal and classic groom looks.

I love wearing a tuxedo, there is just a feeling about putting one on.  Most grooms just go for the standard tux no matter what kind of wedding they are having.  But this doesn't have to be single or double breasted. It's up to you what you decide on, but these are the options for a Black Tie or Formal wedding.  If you are having a Black Tie wedding, I suggest including some text on the invitation stating this, so your guests know there will be a dress code. So...there are so many choices for a black tie wedding. You have the standard tuxedo, but you can get a 1, 2 or 3 (and so on) button jacket.

If you have decided to pass on the tuxedo option and you're looking for a suit, there are limitless options for you.  Colors, styles, cuts and so on. I always suggest getting a new suit for the wedding, if you can't get a tailor made one, then buy off the rack and have it altered just for you. Have a look at your wedding colors, I suggest getting a neutral-ish suit and adding the color and flair with the tie, shirt and of course the pocket square.  A black, charcoal or navy suit will look great and you can wear it again after the wedding.

The suit is not the be all and end all, you need to add your style to it.  Accessorize my friends...add pocket squares, a kick ass tie, amazing shoes, even socks can make an impact. And when choosing the suit, I suggest making a trip to a high end suit store to pick the salesman's brain.  Ask about style trends, colors that are in that season and how to accessorize if you don't feel comfortable doing it yourself. Whether you buy a suit or you rent a suit you need to "own" the suit.  Make sure it fits...properly. If you feel comfortable in your suit, it will show and you'll feel better throughout the day in general, trust me on this I do know a few things!
