Choose your wedding style- Reflect the best of your relationship with style that represents you
 
John and Joseph Photography, creating your unique wedding style
Before you find yourself being asked to
wear a white tux with tails and a top-hat,
or to show up in a 1950’s Chevy and a
striped zoot-suit, you’ll want to have
something to say about how your
wedding plans will reflect your personal
style. Spend some time brainstorming
with your bride about what makes your
relationship unique then look for ways 
to translate those things into
distinctive wedding planning ideas. 
Discuss what people, places and things you gravitate toward most and go over your fondest
memories since your relationship began. Then, compare your thoughts and your priority lists
to see if there's a common theme that emerges. If not, just have fun imagining various
scenarios until you create a story for your wedding you’re excited to see unfold.

For instance, maybe you’re a country boy and she’s a city girl. Then why not follow the elegant
ceremony she’s envisioning, with a raise the roof, barbeque reception in a decorated barn?
Maybe you’re into jazz and she’s into hip hop? Then entertain your guests with soulful quartet
during your cocktail hour and a DJ that knows how to spin the latest sounds all night long. 
While it really isn’t necessary to nail down every aspect of your wedding before the planning
starts to unfold, choosing an overall theme and sense of style will provide you both relief and
inspiration along the way.

To plan your wedding with panache:

  • Brush up on the traditional responsibilities that will be expected of you and look for
    creative ways you can contribute more of yourself to your wedding style.

  • Get prepared by getting answers to the little questions that grooms ask the most.

  • Check out our Men’s Fashion section where you’ll find all the inspiration you need to
    stand out from the crowd.
