GROOMS White Wedding 1416 views
For uber-chic grooms looking for a stylish watch to complete their summer wedding outfit, we love this season's must-have from the makers of the Mondaine Official Railways Clock.
Sir Terence Conran rates it and the Mondaine Clock is a bit of an icon, so what better wristwear for the big day? The latest addition to the Official Swiss Railways Watch collection is the big and bold Mondaine Giant Size - in white. The simple yet iconic design has a large steel case, gold-plated bezel and white leather strap. The famous red second hand in the easy-to-read dial will have him counting the seconds to her arrival up the aisle - and priced at £135, it is a snip compared to her dress. Other nice stuff: it has a wedding white dial and is water resistant to 30 metres, so you can leave it on by the pool on honeymoon. For details of where to buy, call 0116 234 4456 or visit mondaine.com.

GROOMS Perfect Groom 1557 views
Getting a cut and shave is one step towards grooming perfection. But we have found a little bottle of hair tonic that will make you the best-groomed groom around.
New Hair & Scalp Tonic (£29.95) from Environ Men’s range is the first step to healthy vibrant hair. It's non-oily and packed with gorgeous goodies such as tea tree oil and rosemary extract, Vitamin E to moisturise and vitamin A to nourish your scalp.
Leading London hairdresser Paul Edmonds says, “The scalp needs to be nurtured as it acts as a mediator for healthy hair, protecting and providing the root of the hair fibre with nutrients it needs to grow healthily.”The leave-on product should be used twice daily, in the mornings and evenings. Start using well in advance of the big day as results only kick in after six to twelve weeks.
For the nearest Environ stockist call 020 8450 2020.

As more grooms want to share a slice of the limelight on the big day, choosing what to wear is becoming a bit of a man thing. We check out what the gents' tailors has to offer...
When Frank Brook and Walter Taverner set sail for Calcutta in 1912 they returned with buttons and linings. It was the beginning of the Brook Taverner story. Today, based in Yorkshire, Brooke Taverners is a hot spot for grooms wanting to cut a dash on the day.Using quality fabrics such as classic tweeds from Scotland and fine woven cloth from Italy, traditional style takes on a smart, slick look with the Mayfair Morning Suit (£305). True to Brooke Taverner principles it is cut to perfection and is made from
pure new wool. For an alternative look, check out the Prince Edward frock coat (£195). Also made from pure new wool, it comes in two classic colours and is perfect for the dandy man. For summer weddings, you might want to opt for a classic suit whether it's laidback linens or something more traditional. The Shipton Suit (£150) is made from a specially woven cloth, made to look like mohair while keeping it at an affordable price. You can dress the suit up or down depending on the style of the wedding while the experts at Brook Taverner recommend teaming it up with a pale, lightweight cotton shirt to keep the attention on the suit!To find out more about Brook Taverner go to brooktaverner.co.uk.
