Question about day-of shaving for the groom ...

So my FH wants to go with the GM & Best Men to get shaved ... but our ceremony starts early and we're taking pictures beforehand ....

where (if anywhere) can FH and his guys go get shaved at 6:30am?

TIA!

I don't think any barber shop will be open then... Does he have a regular barber that does hot lather shaves? Maybe he could pay the guy to come and open up early for him!

FH never gets the hot shaves at the barber so we don't have a 'regular guy' ... i guess he'll have to do his research and ask some random barbers to open early

unless someone here has a suggestion / recommendation?

I honestly would not suggest he do that on your wedding day if he doesn't usually do it. Many many experience irritation and sometimes hives or red marks after a shave like that. Not something you want to just try on your wedding morning.

I think he should think about getting shaved the night before just in case his skin gets irritated, etc. But if he REALLY wants to get shaved the day of...I would have him arrange something with his regular barber. Perhaps they would be willing to come in earlier or to FH house for a little extra

You can actually rent a room at John Allan and all the guys can get dressed there and all get shaves, etc. I don't know how early it would start, or what the price is, but FH was thinking about doing this, since his place isn't really the best to get dressed
