The founders of Mr. Baldwin Style announced the release of their first book Grooms: A Professional Stylist’s Guide to Wedding Day Apparel For Every Budget.
“The following pages will help you think beyond a rented tux by giving you permission to be fashionable and think outside the box. This book will help you define your personal style while teaching you how to customize it to the style of your wedding.” Wedding designer Steve Moore makes a bold claim about what Grooms can do for future husbands in the foreword of the book.
The duo, married couple Donnell Baldwin and Courtney Arrington-Baldwin aimed to write the go-to guide for grooms to take more care in what they wear on the wedding day. In a statement Donnel said, “Through this book, we want to inspire men to get excited about their look(s) for the big day and help guide them in the planning and execution of it, all while considering what will best complement their partner and wedding style.” The book will be released on Dec. 8 and is now available for preorder on the Mr. Baldwin Style website, Amazon and other specialty retailers.
