Brides spend months prepping and planning every little detail of their wedding from the napkins, flowers, accessories, right down to your wedding wedding underwear. A lot of brides also spend months thinking about how their hair and makeup will be, getting facials to get their skin in its best condition, waxing every hair off of their body, the list goes on and on. But what about the grooms? it isn't uncommon for grooms to get a haircut or maybe even a hot shave, but there is a lot more they could be doing to get themselves wedding ready.
1. Mani/Pedi
There are so many men out there who have never experienced of a mani/pedi, but every man I know that has had the pleasure of knowing the glories of the mani/pedi, has RAVED about them! I know after I took my husband to get his first pedicure, as he was melting into the massage chair he said "Is this what you've been doing the whole time?" Sure is! This is also a really great activity for the whole Groom Squad on the wedding morning!
2. The Hot Shave
This has become a super common wedding ritual for a lot of men and there's a reason, because it's awesome! Its the dude's version of a facial and we are here for it! Just be careful, if you man has sensitive skin or it's his first time getting a hot shave, make sure you do a practice run to make sure his skin doesn't get irritated. Not a good look for wedding photos.
3. Undereye Patches
You know those cute little gel patches you up under your eyes to brighten, hydrate, and decrease puffiness? Yeah, those are the ones we are talking about! Get a whole set for the groomsmen and have them wear them while they are getting dressed and voila! Handsome, well-rested gentlemen. This is one of Hollywood's best kept secrets and every man in Hollywood uses these before a red carpet. (Pictured: Chris Pratt, Diddy, Dax Shepard, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Will Smith, James Franco)
4. The Facial
If you really want to go the extra mile, get the man a facial. But be careful. If you expose him to all of the wonders of pampering, you may be creating a monster!
