Well chosen accent colors can really pop on camera and in person, resulting in great style that will turn heads. Don’t be afraid of bright shades like teal,
red or yellow; as well as softer colors like light pink and powder blue; and rich tones including chocolate brown, jewel green and plum.

attire to the last minute. Sure, he may not check out websites or magazines for fashion tips; but he should visit a few tux shops about five to six months before the wedding day to get ideas on what’s available. Finalize the decision by taking measurements and placing orders two to five months before the big day. Out-of-town groomsmen should visit a local tux shop to get measured professionally so you can order their attire right away. Professional measurements are always the way to go. Your groom and his groomsmen should leave the tailoring to a pro to make sure they get the best fit. There’s often a wedding bonus for your groom.

Typically, a guy rents his shoes when he gets his attire, but buying a new pair of shoes is always an option. You love trying on clothes, buying new accessories and having fun with your look. Your guy might not have the same approach to fashion as you; but he does want to look his best on the big day. Step back and watch him transform from a regular guy into NWD a gorgeous groom. 2
