6 Stylish Accessories for Grooms

There was a time when Grooms often got left out when it came to all things fashion for their wedding day.  All that has changed - and the new age grooms have access to more fashion & accessories thereby allowing them to incorporate their own personality into their wedding day (just like the blushing bride !) 

Accessorizing right can take your look from drab - boring to cool suave. Every accessory adds up but remember, less is more - so don't over do it either ! 

Boutonnieres 
Did you know that the boutonniere is the Grooms equivalent of the Bridal Bouquet?  Whilst it's been tradition to wear a flower from the brides' bouquet for the Grooms boutonniere - the modern groom is introducing some quirky touches to his boutonniere ! Match your boutonniere to your wedding colour theme or add your favourite character for a bit of quirkiness - this subtle accessory won't go unnoticed by your guests ! 




Bow Ties 
This timeless classic accessory for men is coming back in rage this wedding season.  We think they look pretty cool (and easier than tying a tie !) and super trendy; don't you ? 





Cufflinks 
Cufflinks are smart, sophisticated and pretty much synonymous with class.  They are also a great way of injecting personality to a Grooms look.   Forget about the traditional classic cufflinks and opt for something different - from superheros to sports cuffs to funky designs - there's a cufflink out there that caters to any Groom !  Go one step ahead and gift your groomsmen personalized cufflinks.






Pocket Squares 
Who doesn't love pocket squares ?  Superbly stylish and oh-so-sophisticated - they are a great way to tie in your colours & motifs or just to add the fun factor into your wedding photos.  Clash them, mix & match them or complement them with your tie, bow tie or shirt - you just can't go wrong with a pocket square.




Socks
Grooms and their socks are making a bold statement, almost a challenge. The suit with the coloured socks is a look that says "Yes, I know the rules and I am confident enough about how I look."  It adds the fun element to the entire ensemble of Groom.



Tie Clips
Few things subtly distinguish a dapper man of style as effortlessly as the addition of tie clip to their tie ensemble. Add an exclamation to your style statement with the quintessential menswear accessory that has enjoyed a resurgence in popularity. Thanks to the revitalized interest in the classic men's style by the grooms of 2016 !




Vests / Waistcoat
The AKA Team is partial to calling it a Waistcoat (we're from London, UK after all) - but our friends in the US call it a Vest !  Regardless of whatever you call it, this menswear piece can add the wow factor to your outfit ! Designed to wear underneath a jacket or a suit, although it doesn't need to be matched with the blazer so you can totally wear it for a summer wedding.  Wear a single breasted or a double- breasted style depending on what your designer suggests and you are set for your event.





These are just a few of our favourite accessory trends that will make any Groom stand out on his day !  Just remember to complement your brides' style (and try not to upstage her !)  Which accessory do you see yourself going for ? Brides, what you would want your Groom to be wearing
