So much time is spent deciding the bridal gown, shoes, and accessories. And if you've ever been a bride, or involved in a wedding, you know the bridesmaid dress selection isn't a walk in the park either. So why make a quick decision and overlook the men who will play a role on your big day? Mr. SE looks guh-or-gus in a tux- like double take levels of handsomeness.
{in case you wanted to see proof of the hottness}
He knew from the start that he wanted the guys to wear a tux, and I left the rest up to him. Trust and let go, trust and let go. I have to keep repeating it to myself so I don't freak sometimes! What did my handsome almost-husband pick? A winning combination in my book!
If you recall, the bridesmaids are wearing cobalt blue cocktail length dresses. Mr. SE decided that he didn't want his guys in a color, and would instead let the bridesmaids shine (what a gentleman). Here's what he picked. The base is a Calvin Klein tux for all: black vest and tie for groomsmen, white vest and tie for Mr. Groom, and navy vest/tie for our dads. I love it! So classic and beautiful. The men will have boutonnieres of white orchids tied with gold ribbon (from Hillary @ Brocade, in case you forgot). Here's how they'll look together...
Our rentals are from Men's Wearhouse in Mt. Juliet (I reazlied last year its WEAR not WARE. How cute is that!?!?). Their staff is fantastic and couldn't be more helpful. We love how the guys can visit their local MW to get fitted, and pick them up at the store in Mt. Juliet for the wedding.
I love this ring pillow with this beautiful green flower. I love how it takes over the whole pillow. Available at Woomi. From their Sunburst collection.

Wedding Dress
I don't have much time to go before I have to let you go ...to part as friends, because I failed to let feelings show How could so many chances I-I-I forego; when will the moment feel just right to let you know?
Those times we spent together is all that I can think about It's so hard to believe from this day on, we'll be apart 'twas all my fault, though; thinking there'd be tomorrow Is it too late to tell you what I feel?
Baby, think things through as you walk down the aisle 'cuz you should be my lady if you knew what hides beneath my smile (My love for you)
When the music ends you'll be with him, pledging your whole lives to each other I cannot bear to watch his kiss seal your union, knowing how things could be instead
You, me and your wedding dress Girl's with me in her wedding dress (How can you hear me now?) Wedding dress ...to kiss you in your wedding dress Oh, no
Though we were not all alone, I thought then a love has grown How could I be so wrong and have that man part us both? ...and as he made his move, my mind-mind-mind foresaw: the day would come when I can't help but let you go
I handled you with care as though you were already mine Somehow, he took away what mattered most with but a line For his bravado, you fell...and now, we're here, so I just couldn't help the way that I feel
Baby, turn around and listen to me now 'cuz you should be my lady We're the ones meant to exchange those vows (or so I thought)
When the music ends you'll be with him, pledging your whole lives to each other I cannot bear to watch his kiss seal your union, knowing how things could be instead
You, me and your wedding dress Girl's with me in her wedding dress (You know I need you now) Wedding dress ...to kiss you in your wedding dress Oh, no
If you can toss that bouquet like the love I thought we had, I'll bother you no more then wish you both well and go
It may take long, but I will try to get you out of what's left of my heart No, oh
If only you can hear what my heart says, we'd exchange those vows with each other Now, I guess there's nothing more I can do but bury all these thoughts in my head
You, me and your wedding dress Girl's with me in her wedding dress Wedding dress (Should've been me) to kiss you in your wedding dress (Should've been me) Oh, no

Perhaps you're having a hard time getting through the 2nd half of your workday. I know I am. Here's some inspiration to lift your spirits (ps it's almost Friday!).
Yes, the wedding day itself is very important. But I feel like people often overlook the rehearsal dinner. Mr. SE and I both have lots of family coming from out of town, and we'd like to spend as much time as we can with them. We put a lot of thought into our rehearsal night, and the feeling that we wanted to evoke.
Those of you who follow me on Twitter know that our rehearsal dinner has been an ongoing battle. We had certain criteria, and finding a place in Nashville wasn't easy. Well guess what? Maggiano's fit the bill and we couldn't be more excited! Let me backtrack a little bit. Here's what we wanted: close to downtown (convenient for our OOT guests), moderately priced, private room for our 50-60 guests, good food (obviously). Oh Maggiano's, how I love you!
I remember fabulous family-style dinners for high school homecoming, along with family New Year's celebrations, and birthdays. This restaurant holds many special memories for me, including FSIL/FBIL's rehearsal dinner in 2007. While these events were all at Maggiano's restaurants, our rehearsal dinner will be at a location that we haven't used before. Their Nashville restaurant! It sits up on a hill by itself, and I just love how it looks all lit up.
Here's a screen shot of the menu that we get to choose from. To say there's lots of choices is definitely an understatement. We're really looking forward to our tasting!
Just when I think they've designed all the best clothes possible- they come out with this stunner. Tried it on, it's amazing. I love how they styled it with patterned tights here. The patterned tights trend is great, but I'm not sure how to incorporate it into my wardrobe. What are your thoughts on patterned tights? If you rock them, tell me how you work it into your day-to-day clothes.
Lounging Around: Taylor Creative & Your Wedding Reception
I was so impressed with Taylor Creative's booth when I attended the New York Magazine's Weddings event in April. So I made sure that I kept up with what they were doing. Don't you just love these chairs. So perfect for your outdoor soirée. I especially love the clear option. Gives your outdoor party a taste of modernism. See how creative you can be at your reception with Taylor Creative.
As much as I absolutely love veils, lately I'm finding myself drawn to pretty headbands and flower headpieces, like these lovelies by Krystle of Feathers & Frills. She calls them confections, which sounds so perfect for such sweet and charming pieces. Here are just a few of the pretties you'll find in her Etsy shop.
Hop over to Feathers & Frills' shop to see all of the other bridal adornments that Krystle has listed - there's plenty more where these came from. And if you're anything like me, you'll have the hardest time choosing just one!
You know those companies that you feel so lucky to know about? That's how I feel about Bario-Neal. All of their jewelry is hand-crafted with reclaimed precious metals, ethically-sourced stones, and environmentally conscious practices. And it's gorgeous. Anna and Page are the artisans behind the jewelry, creating everything by hand in their Philadelphia studio.
I love this ring - it's simple, chic, modern. How incredible is that paper-thin band?
The reticulated rings on the right are made by continually heating and quenching the metal, giving them their organic shape and texture.
I'm thinking this simple gold band will go perfectly next to my vintage engagement ring...
There isn't a ton of unique wedding jewelry out there for men, but Bario-Neal is stepping in to fill the void for grooms who want something less traditional than the standard band.
If you don't see exactly what you want on Bario-Neal's website, you can work with Anna and Page to create the jewelry of your dreams - they'll even work with your heirloom materials. Because all of their work is handmade, make sure to place your order at least 4 to 6 weeks ahead of time (longer for custom pieces) - just a head's up for all you 2010 brides!
