    Hi everyone, H2B and his ushers are going to hire suits for the wedding. I was wondering if anyone knew when they did this? Do they have to go in advance to choose/get sized etc? Any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks x

    Hi ya.
    Mine picked theres 3 months before the wedding. Just me and H2b went and ordered them, chose what suits to have etc. Then all the men have to go around 4 weeks before the wedding and have the measurements done
    If you are getting married during a busy period, its best to just get them booked now

    I was told to go in about 6 months before. Although I'll be taking H2B shopping in October to decide!

    Saying that, I've pretty much already decided what they are wearing (H2B is happy for me to choose, he's not really a decision maker, he goes with the flow so to speak, lol)

    My H2B went in to get catalogue to make his decisions in February. In June the boys all went in, got measured and ordered their suits. They paid the deposits aswell. They need to go in 10 days before the wedding in November for the final fitting. This gives the company plenty of time to replace any unfitting items. They then pay the rest of the fee and take them home. If your unsure but you know where your going to be getting them from, its best to go in and ask as different companies work differently.

    Hope this helps anyway.

    My H2B went two weeks ago and set up the account, and all the groomsmen are meant to go no later than a month before the wedding to get fitted.

    i'll tell ya what, my h2b said I could decide everything and he would wear whatever etc and has left the whole wedding to me. when it came to picking out the suit in the shop, he actually expressed an opinion and wasnt gonna go with what i said! lol we even had to go somewhere else because he wanted a different patterned waistcoat! lol

    As the boys aren't wearing morning suits, we aren't wanting them all in matching suits. Good job really as our BM is in Oz. Just over 12 monthstill we get married but H2B is looking already (and has expensive taste!)
