It's not only the bride who undergoes a stress-filled phase before marriage, the groom goes through it as well as he is quite capable of stroking out in the process of choosing his wedding day outfit.

One thing grooms often crib about is the fact that they don't have enough clothing options like women, but if designer Surekha Jain is to be believed then men can do a lot with their wedding outfits.

"Silhouettes that are trending for the grooms this season are the Jodhpur pants along with short kurta and Nehru jacket. Such kind of outfits are not very Indian and not very western. They are Indo-western, so if the bride is wearing something edgy it matches perfectly," says Jain.

She further says that grooms should avoid playing "matching-matching" with their brides because it does not look classy at all. Moreover, the effect can ruin the wedding pictures.

Jewellery is often considered a girl's best friend, but even men can make it a part of their dressing.

Talking about the choices of jewellery that grooms can don on their big day, jewellery designer Purnima Sheth says, "Today's men are very metrosexual and love wearing jewellery, so on their wedding day they can pair up with designer brooches and kalgis."

"Along with the regular neck pieces groom can give a twist to their attire with sherwani buttons and cufflinks," she adds.

Talking about the wedding bands, Sheth says that what's topping the list this season for men are simple wedding bands with a secret message inscribed on the inside of the ring.

So, not only the brides, but the grooms can also give a twist to their traditional wedding attires this season.
