Grooms Attire – Don’t Forget the SocksWhen most brides start to think about the groom’s and groomsmen attire, many leave it up to the groom and expect them to pick a standard suit and maybe a tie to match the color of the day.

The classic armadillo one from Steel Magnolias isn't exactly my style but I do love a creative cake made just for the groom. We've had some fun ones over the years, from the replica of the Washington Monument for the groom who oversaw the renovation of the monument to the edible Hummer for the car buff.
