The Handsome Groom

May 22nd, 2006 @ 2:02 pm by Mrs. Firefly

If you read my blog regularly, you might think that I’m getting married to… my dress? my shoes? my calligraphist? The poor groom rarely gets center stage. So here’s his chance to shine… all decked out in the tux.

In our building lobby (showing off to the doorman). The cigar is just for show, he’s never smoked anything in his life.

The tie looks a bit weird because the shirt isn’t buttoned. Thankfully, he noticed sooner rather than later that the shirt needs cufflinks and studs. He wants something basic — no cutesy “Groom” cufflinks — and also not that expensive, because he’ll rarely wear them (unfortunately, he’s not into expensive shirts).

We stopped by Thomas Pink this weekend, but didn’t find anything that we loved. I think I’ll head over to Links of London at lunch. These sets are nice and reasonly priced:

Mr. Firefly bought his tuxedo last fall at the Barney’s Warehouse sale. The shirt is from bloomies and he bought the vest & tie last week at Baldwin Formals (on 6th Ave & 45th St).
