Menswear Style: All of our favorite suit and tuxedo combinations!
This is a huge year at Friar Tux because we are celebrating our 45th Anniversary! So, of course, we had to throw ourselves an epic wedding and events industry party with the most amazing food from Good Gracious! Catering, handcrafted cocktails, music from Vox DJs and of course a double fashion show! The event took place at LA's coolest new venue: The East Angel. We fell in love with the unique Los Angeles wedding venue when we first visited it due to its immensely tall ceilings, modern warehouse vibes and a fresh outdoor area, it's the most versatile space for hosting a wedding, corporate, or experiential event. When our guests entered the event, they were greeted by our tropical boho curated furniture from Collective Rentals as well as our massive floral installations from White Sakuras.
The night really got going when our models took the stage to show off our favorite style combinations as well as some of their dance moves. The models looked their finest thanks to their onsite male grooming sessions from the team of BreLuxe Beauty who launched their new division "Dapper Bar" which helps guys get camera ready with on-point hair, skin and styling details. After the fashion show, Good Gracious! Catering wowed everyone with a seafood bar, a breakfast for dinner station, the fanciest conveyor belt selection of dishes you ever saw and much more!
We finished the night with a balloon drop from the endlessly creative team at Balloonzilla and lots of dancing. And it was all captured by our friends' Visuals by Arpit (how he made the lighting work during the fashion show is a pure mystery and display of his talent) and Cali Viewfinders with a video that will make you feel like you were there.
You can’t go wrong with this trendy Los Angeles party venue. Thank you to everyone who came out to party with us and to all of the vendors that helped us raise the bar!!
