Wedding Wednesday: Krista & Tyler

11/27/2015  |  Twin Oaks Estate

When Krista and Tyler got engaged, all of their friends and family jubilantly responded in a chorus of "Finally!" and "It's about time!" These two have been in it for the long haul. There love is strong and has withstood the test of time. After nearly ten years together, these California kids tied the knot with total class and glamour on a beautiful hilltop garden venue in San Diego. Their wedding was intimate and glamorous all at once and perfectly styled. Throughout the morning, rain poured down and no one was sure if they'd be able to have the outdoor ceremony that was planned. Krista and Tyler kept a positive attitude and serendipitously, the rain stopped and the clouds parted just long enough for them to recite their vows to one another! It was a magical day.

Ask Abby: How Do I Get My Groomsmen All in the Same Outfit?

As much as we love the men in our lives and all of their friends, they don't always pay the closest attention. When it comes to your bridal party, especially if you want a uniform look among the groomsmen, consider sending them to Friar Tux. With so many styles to choose from, they can check out options! Bowties or ties? Suit or tux? Various vests? They can try on combinations until your groom is satisfied.

With 100's of vest and tie colors, they'll also have the right shade to match your colors. If all of your groomsmen can not go together, make sure to write down the number of the style they have picked out so those who missed out can go at a later date to get theirs, and come with the correct combo. On your wedding day, they are sure to look dapper!
