Okay, so, the big day is coming, and like any groom, I wanted to look sharp, but, honestly, I was a bit lost. Not as lost as when I tried assembling that IKEA bookshelf, but still pretty lost. So I started digging around, trying to figure out what to wear.
First, I started to choose the clothes. The wedding was outdoors, so I went for a light blue suit. I did think about wearing white, but then I imagined the awkwardness if someone mistook me for the bride! So, light blue it was. The wedding wasn’t super formal, so I skipped the tux and went for a regular suit. Seemed like the right call.
I read somewhere that I could stand out by doing something different with my tie. So, I decided to wear a bow tie while my groomsmen wore regular ties. I thought it was a cool little touch. Didn’t want to go too crazy, you know?
Then I started to think about colors. I saw some wild suggestions online – floral patterns, bright colors. I mean, they looked good, but it wasn’t really me. I decided to stick with the light blue suit and just make sure it complemented the overall wedding colors.
The most important thing, I realized, was the fit. I read that a million times. “Fit is king,” they said. So, I got my suit tailored. I mean, I actually to find a tailor. I wanted it to look like it was made for me, not like I borrowed it from my older brother.
- Choosing the clothes: Went with a light blue suit because it was an outdoor wedding.
- Adding a unique touch: Decided to wear a bow tie while the groomsmen wore regular ties.
- Considering colors: Decided against anything too wild and stuck with the light blue suit.
- Focusing on the fit: Got the suit tailored to make sure it fit perfectly.
I also made sure to get a good haircut a week before the wedding. And on the day of, I took a nice, long shower, used a good cologne, and made sure my shoes were polished. I was shaving and trimming my beard, too, so I would look fresh and clean.
All in all, I think I did alright. I felt good, I looked good, and most importantly, my bride was happy. And that’s what really matters, right? At the end of the day, it’s about celebrating love and sharing that special moment with your partner. Everything else is just icing on the cake. Or, in this case, a bow tie on the groom!
