After Mr. Onion and the guys had their shave, a walk on the Marketplace and a bit of lunch, Mr. Onion went up to his best friend’s room at the Willard Street Inn to get dressed.

Mr. Onion’s initials on his custom made shirt. It’s the little details that make things personal.

Mr. Onion’s best friend and his wife helped him get dressed — here they are putting his cuff links on.

This is one of my favorite pictures of Mr. Onion from the entire day. Watch the mad tie tying skills as they unfold…

Perfect on the first try!

Mr. Onion began to tie a double windsor knot and Andy, our photographer’s husband/second shooter and our videographer, Wes Jones, were so shocked. Andy said “I’ve never seen a groom tie a double windsor with no mirror in one try!”

It occurred to me, many guys don’t really know how to tie a double windsor so I thought I’d share a video I found on-line so you can share this with your groom before the big day, and he can impress your photographer and videographer too!

Great detail shot — beautiful tie from London, custom made belt from Spain (both hand selected gifts from his best friend/groomsman and his wife) and happily matching purple cuff links on loan from my father.

A gift from his bride (me!) — Hugo Boss dress shoes on sale at Bloomingdale’s.

This looks like it was posed, but Mr. Onion assures me it wasn’t — Andy is just that good.

Mr. Onion’s best friend’s wife was so excited for him that she couldn’t contain herself on the king bed…shhh don’t tell the inn’s staff that she did this!!

A nice portrait before Mr. Onion gets to see me for this first time. Little did he know, he was dressed and ready before I even began to put my dress on.
