A wedding ceremony is a wonderful time in life for a bride but it is also a special milestone for a groom too. Most grooms will assume that a plain black and white tuxedo will be enough but in today’s world of style that just simply will not work anymore.
If you are uncomfortable in your tuxedo chances are the bride will sense it and so will the rest of the crowd. You need to find a way to be comfortable in your groom tuxedo. To do this you may have to go past the normal traditional look of black and white. For example, you can wear a tuxedo jacket and shirt but wear blue jeans instead.
Don’t overdue it on accessories. When choosing your tie you want to have something that will appropriately match the occasion. Ties can be too casual and today you don’t need that. Silver is a great color for a tie and it matches with just about everything. If the bride is using specific colors you may want to choose one of these colors for your tie.
The vest is another accessory that should be carefully selected. Use the color of the vest to compliment the colors used in the wedding. You may want to wear a vest in order to create an elegant look that she will be impressed with.
A cummerbund is a way of getting some style into your groom tuxedo. You can use a cummerbund to accent your look and not take over.
Cuff links are a great way to show style and sophistication. If you want to add style, find the color cuff links that will match with your wedding bands. If you have gold wedding bands then find gold cuff links. You can also use this opportunity to display your talent or your favorite sport. Your cuff links are a way to personalize your attire. Buy a plain set of cuff links and have the customized to reflect your wedding day.
Of course you need the right shoes to go along with the groom tuxedo. Since it is your wedding day you want to play it safe. She might change her mind at the last minute on a color that she wanted to use in the wedding. If you coordinate with that color you might be a little embarrassed. If you want to wear an elegant groom tuxedo you can wear a shoe that compliments that style. You don’t need to spend a lot of money on a pair of shoes for your wedding day. If you have a decent pair of shoes in your closet then get them out and buff them up to get them ready for your wedding. They will look as though you spent a lot of money on them.
Remember that it may be your brides’ day but it is also yours too. Dress the way you feel the most comfortable. If you are comfortable she will be too.
