EDITOR’S LETTER

You’re getting married! Congratulations. We love fi lling your head with hundreds of inspiring ideas—like destinationinspired stationery (p. 126)—as grooms covered. In “Playing for Keeps” (p. 186), we used a carousel, cotton candy and other playful elements to show how edgy silhouettes, unconventional hues and unique accessories can add a touch of whimsy to your wedding look. For the guys, check out our ultimate guide to looking great, from manscaping to choosing the right menswear (p. 211). In order to make all of your ideas come to life, of course, you’ll need to think about a budget that works for you—and we’ll help with that too (p. 233). Wherever planning takes you, be sure to share your favorite wedding details with us on Instagram (#TheKnot). Now, let the dreaming begin.
