Slipping in to a suit and tie: Groom's Outfit

The fiance tried on his entire ensemble (sans shoes) the other day. He had just purchased cuff links and wanted to preview how the pieces of his wedding day look fit together. Here are a few details of his outfit.

Inner detail of his suit jacket has the Brooks Brothers logo and is lined with vertical lines.

Cuff links with the Burberry check pattern in a gray. I like that the circle shape gives them a modernish look.

I recently learned that cuff links should be worn on a French cuff shirt. "A French cuff, also called a double cuff, is a folded back cuff that you can secure with knot closures or with cuff links. These cuffs do not have button closures, which sets them apart from your average dress shirts. French cuffs are often considered more formal, particularly with the use of high quality cuff links."(via mensflair.com) He purchased a crisp, white "wash and wear" shirt, no ironing required :)

A purple check tie to match the check pattern in the cuff links. I really love the shade.

It matches the gray shade of his suit very nicely.

Here is the look. We love the each piece can be worn numerous times. He just needs a belt and shoes, then he will be set. Hooray!

Has your fiance shown lots of interest in their wedding day outfit?
