43: Men's Wedding Fashion with Michael Andrews

Welcome to another exciting episode of The Stylish Bride! Today Julie Sabatino chats with special guest, Michael Andrews, owner of the largest premier custom tailor shop in New York. As an ex-M&A attorney, Michael wasn’t happy with the suit and tie options available in the marketplace, so he decided to take matters into his own hands, and his namesake tailor shop, “Michael Andrews”, was born. 

Listen in while Julie and Michael discuss when a couple should first start thinking about men’s fashions during the wedding planning stage (hint: the sooner, the better!). Learn how to avoid menswear becoming an afterthought, why festive wear is making a comeback, and the quick and dirty on destination weddings.
