  • there's a few other lads on here. yeah it's been really helpful. Especially for the typical 'man jobs' like suits, rings, honeymoons etc etc.

    Hello Grooms!!

    Just had to post cos I had a real giggle as when you click any of the thread here, its one of us posting an essay on an 'issue' which runs for about 7 paragraphs!! You guys post 7 words, 'job done' :D
    :rotfl:Ahahah got my signature removed for claiming MSE thought it was too boring :rotfl:
  • My fiance reads it but he does more lurking than posting.

    well done grooms! i WISH my partner would show some interest. If I had a choice Id love it to all be organised and I just arrive - but I think that is also his wish and I am the one doing everything :D Any helpful suggestions in suits etc would be FANTASTIC as I literally do not have a clue and everytime I ask partner he say's he doesnt know. Partner wont be having a best man so not as if wev'e got anyone else to help either. I have suggested a "few" times that he has his sister as best girl instead and she can help him with certain things but he doesnt like the idea :( anyone else in the same boat without any helpers id really appreciate any tips as we are struggling by ourselves.

    I'm a bolke who lurkes occassionaly on here. With regards to suits, Moss Bross currently have an offer with 'Wedding' magazine. You get the normal groom suit free but when using the voucher in the magazine you get another suit free too.

    I needed 6 in total so only had to pay for 4. From the main 'high street' offerings I found them to be the most flexible and helpful, plus unlike some you can also get the whole package in to try on before ordering! Burtons are slightly cheaper (even with this offer) but not as flexible and you can't try on!
