There are certain
rules to follow when
picking out your tux.
f you're like most guys, the only
time you put on a tux is when you
go to a prom or take part in a
wedding. So when your betrothed
starts talking tuxes, it's time to find out
what is available. Remember — even
though you may only wear the outfit for
one day, the photos and videos last
forever and will haunt you for the rest
of your life.
For grooms, there is just one stead-
fast rule to keep in mind — the ushers
have to match the bridesmaids, who
usually are dressed in romantic shades
known as dusty rose or mother-of-pearl
teal.
Before your betrothed turns you and
your buddies into walking, talking Ken
dolls, sneak a peek at a few of her
bridal magazines (I know, they weigh
more than a Hyundai) to see what the
male models are wearing. This will help
you avoid being lassoed into an outfit
that might look good on Robert
Wagner but makes you look like Leona
Helmsley's parking attendant.
