Would He Do Feathers?

Yesterday, I posted about incorporating feathers into bouquets. Very chic and set-apart. Do you think your groom will go for it? Well, I mean adding feathers to his boutonnière. I like it. But, it will certainly depend on your man if he thinks frou frou can meet masculine.

His Best Foot Forward

Do you have a groom with a fun and humorous personality? Colorful and patterned socks will add a certain twist to the traditional tux. And, it makes for great pictures, too!

Cool Guys

Yesterday, we gave you some creative ways to keep your guests cool at the ceremony or reception. Today, is all about how to keep your groom and his crew cool. Linen suits and tuxedos are great and light for the boys to keep airy on a hot summer day. Linen wear is perfect for your casual wedding, whether your celebration is on a beach, lawn of a Southern mansion, or lakeside. The guys will sure appreciate this thoughtful option!

Groom's Cake

Brides enjoy flipping pages of wedding books to find that great piece of inspiration for their bridal cake. This cake, however, will be one of the greatest details at your reception so why wouldn't you want it to be fierce?!

Here in the South (more than likely nationwide), a groom's cake is a tradition that some brides have not let go of as of yet. Some cakes are the traditional chocolate cake and are pretty and then there are some cakes that fully display the groom's personality and interests. So, if your groom decides that he wants to stick to tradition...let him go all the way out, if budget permits, to personalize his cake.

I posted here about the reason some brides choose to have a groom's cake and the origin.

Some design ideas could include his:

Fraternity letters or mascot

Sports team

Hobbies and Recreation (i.e. fishing, hunting, golf, motorcycles)

Gaming System (i.e. Wii, Playstation)

Occupation

Favorite Food, Clothes

Childhood memories

Favorite drinks

Favorite Movies

The list really go on and on. Get creative if you will be incorporating this tradition into your wedding budget and reception. Below are a few pictures that I have found of various groom's cakes. Enjoy!
