Thinking groom..
Please leave me some stubble?

It's a toss between a velvety smooth jaw-line, tingling my lips with remnants of Gucci by Gucci Men splashed on, or the visual heart-throb of a 5 O'Clock shadow.

I'm really thinking I'd like FH to have 3-4 days growth. Any one have a problem with this? I'm sorry mom, but the times have changed!

Jason being a teeny bit baby-faced for his 25 years (gorgeous guy all the more), I think stubble would be the icing on his... face.. for our photographs.

What about your guys, ladies? Keen to hear what your FH will be doing.

I've never told Aaron this, but I LOVE the 5 o'clock shadow! Smooth face is nice and soft, but a couple of days growth is...well, a "visual heart-throb" as you so perfectly put it! And it's not too rough after a couple of days either. I'd like for him to have the 5 o'clock shadow, too, but I'm sure his mom would have a heartattack over it!

My FH always has facial hair and it drives me up the wall lol, I'm lucky if he shaves once a week, So when the baby smooth skin comes I treasure it, I'm hoping he remembers to shave for the big day lol

My FH also named Jason has quite the baby face too when he is clean shaven..  I actually asked him today what he planned on doing with his facial hair and he said he was going to shave Thursday.. our wedding is Saturday so he will have a little stubble which I think is prefect!!

I love the 5 Oclock shadow! However my FH is blonde so his stubble looks more like he  has a dirty face! Hes gotta be nice and smooth!

mine will be cleanly shaving, but I think that is because his facial hair doesn't always grow in perfectly...if it does look good he won't.  Hard to say right now, but I like both.  Though we did our e photos today and with how much kissing you do the stubble could hurt.

AJ has always had a goatee and occasionally shaves it off...and I hate it. FMIL makes him shave for family pics and He was planning to shave for the Wedding....SO when I really wanted to pick his tux and he didn't want me to- we made a deal he picked his tux and will be sporting the goatee!

Wow, fast responses!

Steph, I'm so with you.. I need that couple of days growth! And it's going to be a shabby-chick wedding anyway, so it shouldn't look outta place!

Lois & ileigha.. if your guys look best that way, I think it's safer!

Cassie you make me laugh.. I guess we all have our preferences!

mrsttobe - I think we'll be doing the same. We might practice a couple of times, seeing what level of growth we like the best lol!

Chelsea... wow I never thought about what blonde guys would have! Ah well, smooth is yummy too. ;)

Shayla... actually yes, I'm sure my lips will be rather exfoliated by the end! :S

Kristy... *sigh* Jason wants his goatee as well. I'm... half-hearted about it. He thinks it looks jazzy. But since I really want the stubble I think it won't stand out as much so I think I'll let him have it. ;)

I love the look of a little stubble. I think it is so sexy. I'm not sure what my FH will have for the wedding though. Knowing him, he'll probly be planning on shaving it, but maybe I can get him to shave like 2 days before or something. hehehe.

This was a cute post!! LOL!!! I like just a nice shadow. I love when my fh has a clean look with just a little left. I guess that is the military back ground in the both of us.

My fiance hadn't shaved for months before the wedding, and I LOVED it! He did this last fall and I was in love with it all. He just looks really gorgeous and handsome with it (without too of course) but I just love it. He didn't shave for probably 4 months or so before the wedding, but of course he kept it maintained so it wasn't huge or anything, lol! Here, this is how he looked on our wedding day! see the pics ive posted of our wedding day so far :)

heehee this is a funny/cute post.  I'm thinking I want FH nice and shaved.  For some reason his facial hair grows quite quick and it scratches my face too much!  lol.  Plus I don't think Andy would really feel right keeping his facial hair, even though it does look hot at times.

I love the stubble look. Mark didn't  for the wedding, it doesn't quite suit him, but on some men....  :::swooooon:::: Mark had perfectly structured hair and looked clean :::WHISTLE::: Depends on the guy, if you love it on him, particularly with a babyface, I totally get it!

pamnandy - smooth is great too!! You're right, some guys have it a LOT thicker than others. Jason's is rather sparce if I think about it... He couldn't grow a very tidy looking beard if he tried!

Tasha - yeah it does depend on the guy! And I certainly agree Mark didn't need to to turn into the hottie of the day! ;)

OMFG, I LOVE THIS POST!!

Ok, calm down Denise....

But seriously!  I am currently having the exact same debate!!  My FH is also very baby faced, and looks even more so when he's clean shaven, and I love it when he has a few days growth!!
