There is a
surfeit of segments on television and in the magazines addressing the Band Baja
Bride…But what about the Groom?
If you’re the happy Groom and your BIG FAT INDIAN WEDDING is fast approaching, here’s where to start.
THE YOUNGSTERS
NIGHT
Look- Devil may
care
What to Wear? Opt for a two button suit
in classic black or navy with a white shirt with French cuffs and statement
quirky cufflinks.
It’s your night
to rock and roll. Though Vegas is almost 10,000 miles away, Bombay has plenty
of places to kick-start your wedding with a bang! Choose a cozy bar where all
your close friends and cousins can gather to celebrate your forthcoming
nuptials.
THE MENHDI
FUNCTION
Look- Family man
What to Wear? Traditional
Bandhi in bottle green, sea green or blue
with jodhpur
trousers.
Now’s the time
when all your cousins and grandmothers and all those distant relatives you
never knew existed, gather to make you the centre of their attention. A
customised Bandhi will ensure you look both sharp and sober to leap into
matrimony and of course keep the aunties gushing about wanting a son in law
like you for their daughters.
THE SANGEET
Look- Desi
chic
What to Wear? Try
a two button Bundhgala with an open V neck.
This gives you ample of comfort to groove to the ‘Desi boys’ with your best
men. Opt for a Bandhgala in rich jewel hues of
claret or Persian.
Bring that
swagger in all the dapper glory to this function. The mayhem will continue till
the wee hours of the morning but you need not look disheveled, as this made-to-measure
piece will fit your silhouette perfectly.
THE WEDDING
Look- Dapper
groom
What to Wear?
Try a Bandhgala in Maroon or Vermillion instead of a traditional Sherwani. Pair
the look with a contrast pocket square and slim Chudidar inspired trousers.
With this look you are guaranteed to inspire yesteryears elegance in a
contemporary way.
Swaaha… while
you sit for a few hours completing your vows and taking ‘saat feras’, while
professing undying allegiance to your new wife; you would rather be in the most
comfortable attire. Wearing a Bespoke Bandhgala will ensure that you are perfectly
comfortable to take that next big step in your life.
THE RECEPTION
Look- Stylish
newlywed
What to Wear?
CLASSIC TUXEDO in Cobalt, Navy or Grey would be ideal for this occasion. Add a bow
tie and a pocket square to complete the look.
You will have
made it through all the fun, excitement and chaos in one piece, exhaustive as
that may be. However, it isn’t over yet. Lights, Camera, Action! And here you
are again; ready to take innumerable photographs with each person on your
extended invitee list. Look camera ready and post a smile, because the timeless
tuxedo will make you look sharp and elegant in person and on print.
