Weddings are steeped in tradition, from the structure of the ceremony to the rituals in the reception. While couples look for little ways to put their unique stamp on their big day, some wedding customs seem to be set in stone for all time.

One example of a very common wedding tradition: The bride is always the center of attention and the wedding is a reflection of her. Though times are changing, and more and more men are taking an increasingly hands-on approach to wedding planning, anecdotal evidence shows that women still do the majority of the heavy lifting here. Between the dress, the flowers, the guest list, and all the lifelong dreams she has tied up in the day, it’s no surprise that the groom takes a backseat in the proceedings.

With all that said, if there’s one day in your life when you should look your absolute best, it’s the day you get married. At Henry A. Davidsen, leading image consultants and tailors of custom suits in Philadelphia and the surrounding region, we specialize in crafting wedding looks that will turn heads during the ceremony and bring warm memories to mind when looking through a photo album twenty years later.

Here are a few ideas for walking down the aisle in style.

Custom Tux

Why settle for a run-of-the-mill “monkey suit” when we can design and execute a one-of-a-kind custom tuxedo that’s as perfectly tailored for you as your beloved’s dress is for her? We’ll create a dashing ensemble that flatters your frame from head to toe and keeps you comfortable throughout the day, from the vows through the last dance. You’ll never know you could look this good – and neither will your new bride! You should sparkle on your wedding day, just like she does.

Creative Accessories

There’s no reason that you and your half of the wedding party can’t add a little flash to your wedding day wardrobe. Consider splashes of bold color in custom bow ties and pocket squares, or cummerbunds in playful prints. We’re also proud to carry an incredible range of the best socks in the world to add a bit of whimsy to your ensemble. Boutonnières, bracelets, and even tie clips can add subtle hints of personality that make your look all the more special.
