6 Mistakes Grooms Often Make - New Day Northwest
“Champions do not become champions when they win the event, but in the hours, weeks, months, and years they spend preparing for it. The victorious performance itself is merely the demonstration of their championship character.” ― Alan Armstrong
A handsome devil is found where you'd most expect him: in the details. Sometimes people overlook crucial details - in stories, wardrobe, and communication - and it adds friction. Le Finale was created to limit stress on the groom, have them look their absolute best, and add an extra layer of preparedness before the brightest lights are on. With that in mind, here are Six mistakes grooms often make before the big day.
Skipping out on the Wedding Vendors
Don't be a lame duck; join your partner in meetings with your vendors like the florist, caterer, musicians, etc. These vendors are notorious for their high price points (and you'll shell out a bunch of dough), so be sure to attend these sessions and provide feedback.
Groom Ghosting
Your partner may get caught in the undertow of wedding planning pamphlets and online concepts, yet that doesn't give you the right to ghost during the whole process. Get off of that cell phone and grab a seat! Offer to assist and be fully present during each in-person visit, planning conversation, and strategy. Your partner can't go it alone.
Yeah... umm... Vows?
Please, please, please don't be that guy. What do I mean? Don't wing your vows! Unless you're an orating savant, it is poor form to make up the vows as you go along. Do yourself a favor: spend some time well before the ceremony and write down your thoughts. Your bride will appreciate the attempt at making your wedding vows extra special.
Let the homies get some (Groomsmen Gifts)
Being a groomsman is fun, but it's also a considerable time commitment for your friends. Hook the boys up with a thoughtful gift, like a pair of socks, cuff links, or a wallet for the big day.
Groom Gone Wild
You've known your bros from as far back as recess and JV, but having a quick convo with them about wedding conduct is quintessential. Share how you want them to have fun, just not the spring-break-in-Tulum debauchery.
Why lose the tie, my guy?
He's a maniac, MANIAC, that's for sure. I know you'll want to break it down on the dance floor with some retro dance moves, but make sure all the formal photos are taken and the toasts are shared before you lose the tux shirt and bow tie.
