I Went on a Quest to Find the Perfect Wedding Cologne. Here’s What I Chose

I Went on a Quest to Find the Perfect Wedding Cologne. Here’s What I Chose

Published by Jenni Sidey

To my surprise, he was well-prepared. Per Gontarski, so-called wedding-day scents are so common now that that Scent Bar even has a shelf labeled “I Do” that carries the likeliest matches. He says many couples come in at the last minute looking for a wedding day fragrance. Some want to share a scent, but most make individual choices that complement one another. Cliché as it may be, this is when florals reign supreme, especially for women. (Gourmands not far behind.) And for men, barbershop-style fougères are the top choice, as they have been since the dawn of colognes. For a niche option from an IYKYK-type brand (and one that’s common with affianced Scent Bar buyers), Gontarski points to Parfum MDCI’s Invasion Barbare, thanks to its fougèrian freshness paired with a fantastic ginger snap. With that one, he says “a little goes a long way, so it’s gonna get you through that entire day.” As for an enduring designer staple, he says go for green: Guerlain Vetiver de Guerlain is both a timeless and refined choice, …

GQ’s 57 Rules for Wedding Style and Etiquette

GQ’s 57 Rules for Wedding Style and Etiquette

Published by Jenni Sidey

11. Cap your number of groomsmen at five. This ain’t a census of your nearest and dearest. Fewer people means fewer logistics and a better experience for everyone involved. (If you want to involve more of your friends, give them a short poem to read.) 12. If there are more than 80 people at your wedding, you need a seating chart. Without one, you’re subjecting your guests to a high-school-cafeteria flashback. And believe it or not, it’s fun putting tables together and figuring out which of your unacquainted loved ones are most likely to hit it off. 13. Your goal should be to look like yourself, but 15 to 20 percent better. A few months in advance of your big day, start protein- and fibermaxxing to build a touch of lean muscle, lock into a regular workout routine, drink your water, and get adequate sleep. (And don’t worry about getting too swole to fit in your suit. It’ll take a lot more for that.) 14. Don’t get upset if people can’t make your bachelor party. …

Zendaya and Robert Pattinson’s Onscreen Wedding Is Big Drama. These 8 Real-Life Unions Have Them Beat.

Any wedding involving one of the world’s richest men was bound to make news. But Bezos and Sánchez’s starry three-day celebration in Venice sparked major backlash among the Italian locals concerned for their floating home: Venice has sunk about 10 inches in the last century as water levels around it have also risen, and an influx of visitors, they worried, would exacerbate the situation. “Let’s make sure that Venice is not remembered as a postcard venue where Bezos had his wedding but as the city that did not bend to oligarchs,” protester Na Haby Stella Faye said at the time, according to The New York Times. “We have a chance to disrupt a $10 million wedding—let’s do it.” Reuters reported that security concerns stemming from the locals’ pre-wedding protests prompted the bride and groom to change their wedding-party venue. From June 26 to 28, the city was plastered with posters featuring Bezos’s head on a rocket and messages like this one: “In the time it takes to read this, Jeff Bezos’ wealth has increased more …

Why Queen Elizabeth II Skipped Charles and Camilla’s Wedding

Why Queen Elizabeth II Skipped Charles and Camilla’s Wedding

Published by Sam Flores

After an occasionally controversial and years-long relationship, then-Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles were officially married 21 years ago, on April 9, 2005. It was a very intimate event with only 28 guests, including Charles’ sons Prince William and Prince Harry, Camilla’s children Tom Parker Bowles and Laura Lopes, and Charles’ siblings, Princess Anne, Andrew Mountbatten Windsor (then known as Prince Andrew), and Prince Edward. But unlike some family weddings, the groom’s mother and father were absent, a situation even more notable as his parents were Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Phillip. The future king’s marriage ceremony was held at Windsor Guildhall, a structure near the Windsor Castle estate, but just outside its boundaries. As both Charles and Camilla had been divorced, the ceremony was a civil one, not one held inside a church. That detail explains why Queen Elizabeth was not in attendance: As the Supreme Governor of the Church of England (a constitutional role that is distinct from its spiritual leader, the Archbishop of Canterbury), the queen considered it inappropriate to attend the …

Oh, and FYI — prices are accurate and items in stock as of time of publication. It’s wedding season again! Yay (or nay, depending how you look at it). There’s nothing more stressful than navigating overly-complicated wedding dress codes. You can’t wear white (famously), some say you can’t wear black or red, and apparently green is off limits in some circles, too. Not to mention that you have to factor in whether you’re going to be among the same group of friends as previous years of weddings past. Add to that the number of separate ceremonies you have to dress for this year, and their respective weather and locations, and you have yourself a sartorial minefield. The good news is that no one cares about what you’re wearing as much …
