Offbeat grooms

Oh, we LOVES us some grooms and we have all sorts of advice from and for them. We love grooms with beards, we love gay grooms, we love grooms in tuxedo alternatives, we love grooms who don’t identify as men, we love ALL THE MASC MARRIED FOLKS!

What bridal magazines can do to ANYONE

How does this video only have 75 views? We don’t normally share sketch videos, but this one is about about how, sometimes, guys can get way more sentimental about wedding planning than girls.

Zam’s outfit will totally make you rethink everything you know about groom gear

This is Zam. Lily from [vendor-heart link="http://vendors.offbeatwed.com/listing/wild-about-you-photography"]Wild About You Photography[/vendor-heart] photographed Zam and his bride Athena in Hong Kong, and I think we can all agree that he totally freaking ROCKED his groom gear.

Your groom should feel like a fancy princess too!

While shopping for his outfit, my future husband goes straight for the shoes that cost twice as much as my dress did. Like an evil-but-sensible Bridezilla, I say no to the beautiful shoes. Then my bridesmaid pointed out that if it was the bride saying “I want to spend X amount on shoes because they’re perfect and wonderful, and they’ll make me feel just like a princess.” Then everyone, including the groom, would be telling the bride to JUST BUY THEM!
