What are things to consider when buying your wedding suit?

Always look for the best quality suit you can afford.

Have your suit professionally fitted and altered.

Leave sufficient time for ordering and altering.

Find a menswear store that is able to cater for the look your after. 

Enjoy planning your wedding !

Hi :)

Of all things to consider i often find Budget and timeline will be the biggest factors. Allowing yourself the right budget to get what you want is very importatant and will require a little research to find out average costings of say tailor made and off the rack. Your timeline leading up to the wedding will also require some thought, you may want a suit made but only have two weeks, leaving only a off the rack options for instance.

The last things I notice people getting confused about is tailoring for an off the rack suit. Not all tailor stores are the same. If you can find a store that will fit the suit for you then generally speaking you are in safer hands. The risk you run buying a suit from a novice is that it is the wrong size and you will spend too much changing the fit, and still not be happy or worse, not being able to fix the problems.

So ask around, talk to people you know and try to find a trusted store/ tailor in your area.

Hope this helps!

Hi there,

Firstly copngratulations on your enagement!

Things to consider when buying a wedding suit are;

- Price

- Do you want something made to measure or off the rack?

- What month are you getting married in and how can this effect the style? 

- What will the dress code be? Lounge suit, black tie, cocktail? 

- How many groomsmen are you having and would you all like to be wearing the same suit? 

- How much time do you have? Made to measure takes 12 weeks

I hope this helps you!
