The start of the new year marks the perfect time to tackle your wedding planning, and one key detail that deserves early attention is your suit. A beautifully tailored suit isn't just an outfit, it's a reflection of the occasion, your style and the memories you will cherish forever. By starting the process early you'll ensure a stress free journey to looking your best on the big day.
Craftsmanship Takes Time
A Bespoke or Made-To-Measure requires time, care and precision to get right. From consultation to fittings the process can take anywhere from 8 to 12 weeks, sometimes longer. Early planning gives you time to make thoughtful decisions and ensure your suit is ready well before the wedding day.
Avoid the Wedding Season Rush
Wedding season is the busiest time for tailors and their schedules fill up very quickly. By booking your consultation early you secure your spot and avoid any last minute panics, which is one less thing to worry about when things get busy in the final weeks before the wedding.
Picking the Right Suit and Colour
As the groom your role is to complement the bride, not to compete with her. This is her moment to shine, and your suit should reflect quiet confidence and understated elegance.
When choosing your first tailored wedding suit, opt for timeless yet versatile colours. Pale grey is a stylish, formal choice for daytime weddings, while a mid grey offers versatility for other occasions. Pair with a crisp white shirt for a clean polished look. A traditional tie such as one with a subtle black and white check adds a classic touch, while a pair of polished black oxfords complete the outfit with a touch of formality.
If your unsure about fabric choices or colours consulting with an experienced tailor can help you find the perfect combination that works with your wedding theme.
Subtle Details Make the Difference
Starting early means you can focus on the finer details that make your suit unique. From fabrics, textures and colours to buttons, threads and personalised linings and monogrammed initials and dates. A groom should look sharp, confident and elegant without stealing attention. Think timeless and understated, this approach will always serve you well.

By planning your suit early , you'll avoid stress and have time to enjoy the process. It's an opportunity to create something that represents you while letting the bride take centre stage.
