Where are people getting the groomsmen suits from? I want to keep costs low and seeing as my beautiful bridesmaids dresses cost me £70 for the 4 of them am not wanting to spend over for the boys.. we’re getting married in July 2018 and we are a little quirky and not traditional.

Moss bros are usually very good but again check google and read reviews on sites. Good luck x

We bought ours from m&s, if you have a store card then you often get money off vouchers, we managed to get 20% off 2 suits. Cant get the third until next year as he's only 10 so has more growing to do.x

My dad bought suits from Matalan in the past for work. Maybe worth a look for wedding. A lot of high street shops have a wedding dept these days. Hope you find what you are looking for. X

We got ours from Debenhams Men's Suits Debenhams Trafford. It was a gorgeous suit and very friendly and helpful staff. We didn't want a traditional wedding suit so thought high street would be better than wedding shops etc. Good prices too x

Just seen the comment re Greenwoods they have gone out of business. Moss Bros, Debenhams and Burtons all do hire. Perhaps have a look at Matalan, ASOS and next if you would prefer to buy. Black Friday sales will be Nov too so perhaps have a look online then. Hope you find what you're after x

What about just getting them a waistcoat and tie in your chosen colour and asking them to wear black trousers and a white shirt (most men have these already)? Personally i like these in jeans.

We're only having a best man and as my future hubby is wearing his biker jacket, so will his best man. We're a kooky bunch and not at all conventional.

We are getting ours next season so there should be lots of stock in but reckon it is cheaper to buy from New Look or somewhere than hire.

My best advice would be to shop about and put your own together x

Skopes, which we found in House Of Fraser, do suits in really lovely quality and great prices. We got ours for about the price you're looking for. Not sure if you can find them online or not but worth a look.

Formally yours hire - I can’t recommend them enough (£60/suit inc insurance, shirt and three piece suit, plus cravat/tie and pocket square). They were about £100 cheaper per suit than Moss Bros and service was excellent!

I got married abroad recently and really struggled to find what I had in mind for the men. We ended up finding the perfect ones at Moss Bros st a very cheap price. We got the ties from swagger and swoon online and they were great. I ordered the sample first to make sure it was the right colour. They were much cheaper than in the shops and good quality too x
