But what about the groom? More specifi cally, what about the groom’s attire? It’s his special day, too. So it’s time to devote some attention to him. Think back to all the weddings of decades past. What was the groom wearing as he watched his bride walk down the aisle? Most weddings were formal occasions and the tuxedo ruled the day. But times have changed. One of the reasons for this shift could be the economy, says Jane Carlton Hall, Fashion Design instructor at The Art Institute of Houston. “When it’s time to fi nd a place to cut costs when planning your wedding in this economy, a formal tux is one place couples start,” she said. Hall points out that even if the groom springs for a new suit, it’ll be something he can wear again and again. But other factors also come into play. “Now people are much more creative, with destination weddings and dude ranch weddings, which are popular here in Arizona, and the attire matches the location,” said Elizabeth Heuisler, academic director for Fashion Design and Fashion Marketing at The Art Institute of Tucson. She advises that grooms still lay out some cash for a new pair of jeans if they wind up saying their “I dos” at a dude ranch. And even if you are taking a more traditional route and planning a formal evening wedding, you don’t necessarily need a tux. But, when all is said and done, the special day is still about the bride.
