Man Candy Friday: Grooms in Uniform Make Me Swoon
February 4, 2011
In lieu of reports from the Washington Post that Prince William is suspected to wear a “custom-made, ceremonial military uniform, as his father Prince Charles did when he wed Lady Diana Spencer in 1981,” I can’t help but <sigh> at the sheer thought of it.
Like any other, red blooded, American woman, it’s no surprise that I find the notion of a groom in uniform, especially a Royal one, finger-licking lovely. (I ask in advance that you forgive any offense or vulgarity that may slip through my lips and into my keyboard, because ladies, I simply can’t help myself… Also, Tanner, I love you – hehe!)
For serious, is there anything more attractive than a man in uniform? I think not. I don’t care if a sport’s jersey, striped socks, fire proof pants or policeman pleats; there is just something about a man in uniform that easily turns this refined, young lady into this howling character…

Oy vey.
But alas, I digress. Because while a slick uniform can turn any male up from a 6 to a 10, there is no kind of uniform that does this quite as well as the military. Army, Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps or Coast Guard… you name it; I love it. So, even though Veteran’s Day has already come and gone, I would still like to salute all the military grooms and the lucky photographers who got to capture ‘em on film :)

Once when we were little, my sister saw a boy scout and repeated what she must have heard my mother say “I just love a man in uniform!” It’s been a running family joke since. This made me think of it. Way cute!

I’m getting married in May right after my fiance commissions into the Air Force! (My fiance picked my dad, a retired Marine colonel, to do the swearing in part of commissioning.) For our wedding, we even have a military photographer who does military weddings on the side! He is great! All the groomsmen will be in Air Force mess dress except for my twin brother who will wear a navy blue colored suit so he won’t stand out too much. haha A man in uniform is always swoon-worthy! :P
