Grooms Top Tips
It's ok to be nervous boys! While Andy looks very dapper and on top form, he was shaking like a leaf and this was the third time in that suit! I'll just quickly explain that... once to marry Becky in Greece, then to celebrate their wedding in England and then for this after wedding shoot in the Lake District.
As soon as Becky appeared though you could see his nerves instantly disperse and we even caught a few smiles.

GROOM TOP TIP NUMBER 1
Wedding planning... support her/him, trust me, cliche I know, but 'she/he has been dreaming off this day her/his whole life'. She/he may get a tad stressed now and then, it's completely normal, it is, really! Your cool and collected spouse may go a bit BRIDE/GROOMZILLA occasionally, she/he's allowed...just this once hehe!

GROOM TOP TIP NUMBER 2
Choose your suit with the theme of your wedding in mind, don't rush into it, styles do change! But, please also go for what YOU feel comfortable, it's your day too..well...I mean...to an extent.
Go for the suit you and your wedding wants, whether its countryside tweed trouser, braces and dickie bow or a very classic do with top hats and tails.
Andy's cool boiling hot summer wedding screamed for crisp white shirts, bow ties and waist coat., no need for heavy jackets in 30 degree heat. Even without the jackets he looked fab!
Oh, and socks are important too!
Whether its a bow tie a cravat or a wins or knot, lease have a practice before the morning of the wedding, its a lot harder than it looks!

GROOM TOP TIP NUMBER 3
Don't leave all the wedding research down to your spouse, read magazines. GQ is the font of all knowledge. David Gandy and Jim Chapman know what they're talking about! Maybe give them a chance... for her!
Don't forget to feel great! Your like the second most important person after all!
GROOM TOP TIP NUMBER 4
'Urrr excuse me Ella, which side does the button hole go on?' The amount of times... Bless them.
'Men on the left, because women are always right!' (Your left-tell your best man, it's his job).
Leave them in the water as late as you can on the morning off your wedding, or as soon as the photographer is ready for you, keep them looking fresh, if you can, they wilt so quickly.
GROOM TOP TIP NUMBER 5
I promise you, unless you're a supermodel, having your photograph taken by someone you've only met a few times is scary, I hate being in front of the camera!
Its ok to show your nerves, your groomsmen, your best man and your bride/groom will be terrified too. Nerves are cute and they look great on camera, it's the moment, it shows emotion! that's what this day is about... right?
I'll be back with some more tips soon... have any to share with your fellow grooms?
