Grooms Guide to Wedding Planning
The grooms planning process can be as simple or as complicated as you want it to be. Regardless of how much you want to get involved, there are a few key things you should keep in mind to ensure a smooth-sailing wedding planning experience.
If you’re the best man at your friend’s wedding, you’ll have to make a toast. And if you’ve been to a few weddings, you probably already know that the thing about toasts is that they’re only memorable if they’re really good or really bad. We all know that your personality is way too sparkling to be in the latter group, so ensure your spot in the former by following these guidelines.
