Everyone obsesses over the bride's look but the groom needs to look good too. Photographer, Stuart Meyer shares some great camera ready tips for grooms on wedding day.

Hair:
Shave the morning of your wedding.
Get a haircut a week beforehand.
Get rid of any hair that might cover your eyes. If you have a mustache or beard, Trim and groom your mustcahe or beard, so it does not look shaggy.
Trim stray nose hairs.

Skin:
Not happy with your skin, seek professional help. Facials are not just for girls. Schedule a facial at least one week before the wedding in case you have an allergic reaction or get blotchy skin and need time to heal.

Teeth:
Schedule a cleaning, if it's been a while since you've seen the dentist.
Want a brighter smile, have your teeth whitened.

Tans:
"A touch-up tan looks good, but the most common mistake is overdoing it. Over-exposed skin looks fake and does not photograph well. If you are into outdoor activities, use sunscreen - the best tan for wedding photography is the one you get when just a bit of sun peeks through the sunscreen to increase your natural melanin production." - Stuart Meyer, Photographer

Hands and Fingernails:
Clip and clean your fingernails at least one day before the wedding.
