It’s true, weddings are often about the brides. We love talking about the gorgeous wedding dresses, hair and makeup splurges, and all the pretty details. In today’s episode, we change things up and focus our full attention on the grooms. If you’re a groom, if you’re marrying a groom, or know a groom - this episode is for you! From tying a tie, to finding the perfect outfit to match your partner, to (BARF) talking about nose hairs… we’ve got you covered.

Let’s Hear it for the Boys (aka, the Grooms)

• ATTIRE: to match or not to match? It’s important to match your partner’s level of formality. If they are formal, dress formally. If they’re in aloha attire, it’s ok to be more casual. The goal is to look like a matching couple on your wedding day. 
• Groom + Groom? Complement your outfits, Joe says don’t go fully matchy-matchy, Tessa is 100% into matching outfits!!
• TIES AND BOW TIES: Do you know how to tie a tie? How about a bow tie? Your wedding day shouldn’t be the first attempt. Practice, practice, practice. Also, make them all look consistent with your wedding party - everyone’s knots should look the same. 
• SUITS AND TUXES: If you’re renting your attire, pick it up with enough time to try it on and make sure you have the right size AND nothing is missing. Try everything on!
• DAY OF PREP: Is your shirt wrinkled? Iron it before the wedding day. Do you have a bow tie? Practice or rent a clip on. Be prepared for your wedding day. 
• Create a custom look with jacket liners - printed photos or custom embroidered jackets are a fun trend right now. 
• PERSONAL GROOMING: Get a fresh haircut, and trim your facial hair - nose hair, ear hair and eyebrows need to be groomed! 
• VOWS: Don’t wait to write these on your wedding day. Start at least a week ahead to give yourself time to write it. Don’t do this on your phone - write them out on paper or in adorable vow books. 
• GIVING EACH OTHER GIFTS? Plan ahead. Write a letter, get a gift, make it special, meaningful and don’t be afraid to surprise your partner with that card or letter. 
• YOUR WEDDING IS NOT YOUR FRAT PARTY - have fun, but not too much fun. You want to remember your wedding, so drink responsibly. 
• BE INVOLVED - The best weddings happen when both partners are involved in the process, but don’t wait until the last minute to get involved. If you weren’t involved from the beginning, don’t try to change things at the last minute.
