Hi

I am looking for a wedding suit as the groom of the wedding, pretty standard but looking to find ways to save money.

Any one have any ideas online and offline, I am in London so good value places for shopping for wedding suits would be handy, saving on costs and tailoring too.

My size is 36 waist and 42 jacket size!

    Go to a high street store - Topman, Asda, Primark, Tesco. All do suits, and some pretty cheap. Might also find something preloved on ebay?

    Lots of excellent (often designer) suits in charity shops in upmarket areas of London.

    What's the difference between a wedding suit and a suit?

    I just got one from next in the sale, then the other day I was in Matalan with the wife, and to be honest they had suits that were just as good but cheaper. I think I'll get a black suit as my last one appears to have shrunk.

    One word and a larger price label!

    Unless of course you're going morning suit type in which case, well yeah, they're different (BIL did)
