When Should You Start Shopping for Your Wedding Suit: A Guide
Planning a wedding is a unique journey for every couple. Whether you’re meticulously organized and have your wedding details sorted two years in advance, or you’re opting for a spontaneous elopement in a few months, rest assured, Suit Society is here to guide you through the process of finding the perfect suit for your big day.
While every wedding timeline may vary, there are some general milestones along the groom’s suit journey that we recommend keeping in mind to ensure a smooth and stress-free experience.
6-9 months before the wedding
Feeling overwhelmed already? Relax, this is just the beginning of your suit adventure. Take this time to explore different suit styles and gather inspiration. Whether you’re scrolling through Instagram or creating Pinterest boards, having an idea of what you like (and what you don’t) will help us tailor our recommendations to your taste.
5-6 months before the wedding
Now’s the time to schedule your initial consultation, especially if you’re coordinating suits for your groomsmen too. By securing your appointment early, you’ll have more flexibility in choosing dates and can fully experience our personalized wedding service.
4-5 months before the wedding
Get ready for the fun part – it’s time to choose your suit! During your consultation, our expert fitters will guide you through fabric options, styles, and finishing touches – the perfect start to your wedding festivities.
2-3 months before the wedding
At this point, you’ll come back for your first fitting. We’ll ensure your suit fits perfectly and note any minor adjustments needed. Our in-house tailors will take care of these alterations, typically within 1-2 weeks. You’ll then return for a final fitting to ensure everything is just right.
1.5 months before the wedding
Congratulations, your suit is ready! We recommend having this buffer time just in case any last-minute tweaks are needed, ensuring your suit is impeccable for your special day.
