Part 2 - His ROM attire

The garden wedding on the cards created a little headache for Mr Groom. You see, we had always wanted to 'keep it simple' - our motto since Day 1. Correspondingly, a suit would be out of place in a garden setting, yet it couldn't be too casual such that it wouldn't stand out...

And so the groom (and bride) thronged the internet forums, looking for sparks of inspiration and fresh ideas. It wasn't easy, of course - especially since the attire seen online were wrapped around hunky bodies or lean frames... to say that the male lead for the wedding was a far cry from what was seen would certainly not be too self-deprecating.

We chanced upon some nice-looking vests online, and thanks to some recommendations from my good old bro, I decided to tailor my attire with Dreamlands.

Our 1st trip to Dreamlands was a little tentative - we had no idea what kind of designs would be suitable and what to look out for, but our worries were unfounded because of the fiesty little lady behind the counter. Ever helpful and enterprising, she offered us lots of designs from which we could choose from, which was nothing short of a minor headache for the 2 of us. After sifting through everything, we managed to settle on a suitable design. Wwhat made me feel good about the whole process was the way the both of us went through everything together - and here I have to thank my wife-to-be for exhibiting great patience and thoughtfulness! You are the best, baby!

And there we have it... ROM attire for Mr Groom - check!

The countdown continues...
