Weddings are one of the most memorable occasions in the lives of the bride and groom, but they can also be stressful. While the bride steals the show with her couture, the groom deserves to feel like a king on his wedding day.
Here is our wedding fashion bible for all grooms looking for guidance on their wedding day. We'll go over everything from outfits like south Indian white lungi to silhouettes, accessories to safas, shoes to hair, and skin care.
Why is a sherwani a closet must-have?

Much Love Groom Accessories
Accessories are an important part of a groom's attire. A simple brooch on your outfit, dupatta, or even pagdi can make a huge difference in your overall appearance. You must spend time selecting the appropriate accessories to go with your sherwanis over the cotton vest.
Accessories, such as a string of pearls worn with the tailor-made sherwani, add a subtle, classy touch to your look. Kundan malas or pearl necklaces for the groom have become trousseau must-haves because they complement pastel colors and rich brocade or velvet fabric.

What shoe to choose and why loafers are for the win
No Indian groom would consider going out without a comfortable pair of loafers. While jutties are preferred, the millennial groom must balance comfort and tradition. Shoes should complement the groom's ethnic outfit, and chic loafers are a wardrobe staple that complements the ethnic look like no other.
Once you've found the perfect pair, don't forget to walk around in them for a few minutes to avoid painful shoes. Here's another suggestion: Dance your heart out in your sangeet day shoes as well, to avoid any mishaps on the dance floor.

Mix and match your safa
The Safa, or turban, is an essential part of the groom's attire. The right safa can elevate a sherwani to new heights.
One of the most important groom accessories is a safa or other type of headgear. You can never go wrong with the bejewelled headgear, whether it matches the bride's colors, a floral, or lehariya prints. But don't get too caught up in the colors or patterns. The material or fabric of the safa is also very important!
Tame the man-e
Between deciding on an outfit and matching accessories, most grooms overlook the fact that hairstyles can make or break the wedding look. Always choose a hairstyle that complements your facial features and your outfit. If you are wearing a turban or a safa, make sure your hair does not stick out as this gives you a shabby appearance.
Grooms-to-be must also develop a hair care routine. Remember the oil, lather, rinse, and repeat mantra. Despite the stress of wedding preparations, it is also critical to eat a well-balanced diet and stay hydrated, as your hair will only shine if it is healthy from within.
Ultimate skincare
The bride used to be the only one involved in pre-wedding preparations. A growing number of men these days go out of their way to look their best on their wedding day. Men, too, must take care of their skin. Cleanse, tone, and moisturise after us (CTM). Yes, you read that correctly. To achieve a natural glow for the Big Day, grooms-to-be should strictly adhere to this routine. In addition to the CTM, the grooms should get a facial. Facials are an excellent way to remove dead skin and rejuvenate the skin. But don't just do it yourself. If you've never done a facial before, you should seek professional assistance.
Weddings could also be an excellent opportunity to give the groom a manicure. We're not kidding. Manicure treatments aren't just for women. On his wedding day, the groom must appear clean, trimmed, and buffed. While we're on the subject of trimming, here's a helpful hint. Shaving on your wedding day is a bad idea. Shave a day or two ahead of time to avoid irritation or redness. On the big day, any extras can be easily trimmed.
So there you have it, a comprehensive guide that will undoubtedly help you shine brightly on your special day. Begin with the fundamentals: skin, hair, and clothing, and you'll be fine.
