So, while the girls were getting ready at the B&B, the guys were getting fancy at a friend’s cabin down the way called, “Dreamland”.
Dreamland was the perfect place for the guys to stay. It was built in the late 1800s, it has a view of the lake, and there is literally a cave built into the center of the cabin. It’s hard to tell from the picture below, but there’s a bedroom on the other side of that fireplace. And you enter that room by walking through a narrow rock cave tunnel on the other side. The guys loved staying at a place with their very own cave… very manly, you know. 
Mr. E also had more friends show up the day of our wedding and cooked them all breakfast. Seriously—we shared this day with some pretty awesome people.
Here’s my sexy man getting ready that morning. I’m so happy he’s finally my husband!
One of the groomsmen helping BIL Espresso with his tie:
Mr. E went the traditional route of getting his groomsmen flasks, as well as some liquid courage to go inside. Here they are filling some up.
Every guy in the wedding wore black Vans (Our dads looked so cute in them!).
Some photo time on the deck:
Mr. Espresso rocking the watch I bought him for our wedding day. I had our photographer take it over to him that morning.
The guys got dressed and ready within no time. So, they relaxed on the deck until it was time to come over.
How are/did the guys in your wedding spend the time before the wedding?

Love Love Love the pictures of your adorable groom and his groomsmen!! The Vans were the perfect touch, they all looked so stylish and fly!!!
aww, I too love guys getting ready photos. Our photographer works alone, so he’ll be going back and forth between the girls and the guys getting ready - good thing we’ll be close.
The groomsmen with their flasks … classic. Great photos!

Thanks ladies. I just had Mr. Espresso read through your comments so he could read your thoughts. He was very cute making sure he didn’t scroll to fast and read every one.
@Mrs. Powder Puff: and @Miss Dew Drop: and @Mrs. Taffy: He had actually bought another tie for our wedding but went for this last minute and surprised me. It’s the tie he wore to our mid winter formal dance in high school. He’s always been way more stylish than me
@LatteLove: They totally are. We all had so much fun together!
@tea: I miss using the word dapper… I’m going to start that up again
@Miss Moonbeam: nice play on words 
@PrettyKitty: Mr. E likes that your guys wore those
The guys look sooo James Bond. :o)
You two will make the most adorable mini-expressos one day.
I would just like to point out that Mr Espresso is totally hot.
@Mrs. Sushi: and @Ruby Slippers: I just giggled out loud at both of your comments… I’m totally going to get caught on Weddingbee at work!
How cute it that tie story Mr Espresso looks so GQ!
What a great-looking male party…and the detail shots are awesome! Oh, I second what Ruby Slippers said..

About Me: I'm a lover of all things good: coffee, music, travel, rain, and of course- my handsome fiance! I'm a full believer in the "Life is Short," mantra - and therefore, eat lots of dark chocolate. I'm a Geographer by degree and nerd by choice. I cook to the sound of French and Portuguese music even though I speak neither. I love road trips, camping, hiking, and capturing life through the lens of my camera. Take me to Anthropologie and I may never leave. I'm a sucker for pretty packaging, bargain finds, and old movies. Mr. Espresso and I are high school sweethearts and I am so blessed to be this amazing man's future wife.
