Fashion-forward grooms deserve to take centre stage on their wedding day. Those not afraid to take a risk should wow the crowds in a patterned suit.
Grooms tend to stick to safe colours and accessories come wedding day. While a black suit is classic and debonair, it’s also a bit predictable. We love it when grooms go big and creative with their fashion, and a patterned suits is an excellent way to do it.
Depending on your colour palette and pattern, this trend can bring big drama or subtle style. You could choose fabrics with a massive floral print or even glitter to have you shining all day. Another special option is to incorporate a cultural patterns and fabrics like Ndebele print into your groomswear.

The effortless bride is made for the boho style. Inspired by nature and life, this aesthetic is all about being unconventional and free.
This style incorporates a more laid-back aesthetic with romantic and dreamy detail. It’s all about flow and comfort, which is why most boho brides opt for billowing sleeves and an A-line shape. Fabric also plays a key part in this style. Choose intricate lace detail, gentle embellishment and unique patterns for an eye catching finish.
Boho-inspired wedding dresses work especially well for outdoor weddings, and can also add a unique spin to a more formal occasion.
Here are some gorgeous gowns to inspire your own;

The Bachelorette star Rachel Lindsey and Bryan Abasalo have been married for one year. The couple is one of the franchise’s biggest success stories since finding love in the show’s 13th season. The pair became husband and wife at Mexico’s Royalton Suites Cancun on August 24, 2019.
“One year + FOREVER…I love you and I am beyond thankful for you,” Lindsey wrote on her Instagram in honour of the occasion.

Abasalo was a bit more expressive with his post, writing: “I can’t believe it’s already been a year since we both said “I Do”! I consider myself beyond lucky to be able to call you my wife and truly blessed to be your husband. I wake up every single day a better man because you are always there to support, encourage, and love me no matter what. You are my rock and my best friend. Thank you for the memories we have shared together this year and I look forward to many many more. I love you @therachlindsay Happy Anniversary! ❤️?”

The world first fell in love with Lindsey when she was a contestant of Bachelor Nick Viall’s season. The attorney quickly impressed viewers with her intelligence and poise. She then became the first black woman to hold the title of Bachelorette, a massive feat for a show that has been heavily critisised for its lack of representation.
Miami-based chiropractor Abasalo won the season and Lindsey’s heart. While seasons of the show often end in engagements, the ratio of those engagements following through with an actual wedding is very low. Lindsey and Abasalo are one of a few couples in the show’s history to actually go through with tying the knot.
