Formal Wear

A brave man is one who chooses his wedding attire without consulting his bride. Most brides find it necessary to be a part of the formal wear selection to ensure there are no style clashes on their wedding day

The wedding attire you wear depends upon a number of factors including the formality of your wedding ceremony, the time of day and the season.

Grooming Tips For Your Wedding Day

Take years off your look by getting rid of your gray hair.

Styling your hair as a comb-over just dates your look. Opt for a more modern haircut by going shorter.

Be sure to trim or wax unwanted hair for a clean look.

There will be pictures of your hands during the ring exchange and lots of handshaking the day of your wedding. Have them moisturized & manicured so they look and feel great.

Keep your feet clean and odor-free by scrubbing them and then drying completely. Insert a pair of odor absorbers into your shoes for wetness and odor.

Consider trimming your arm pit hairs. Less hairs, less bacteria, less smell, less wetness!

Trim or tweeze any stray eyebrow hairs. Uni-brows are not popular or attractive.

Consider having your teeth whitened for a dazzling smile in your pictures.

Happy Grooming!
