Suits X 7 - Found a package which is £360 for 6 - all suit wearers are contributing minimum £50 towards suit

Where? I want to know this place! We were going to go with Formally Yours but OH is a little iffy on a) not seeing the suits or trying them on and b) doesn't want to wait until 8 days before the wwedding to recieve them!

Its one of the bridal shops in sunderland - not sure if they are national an i can't find the bloody leaflet now... I'll have to have a good hunt.... Could of been Waltons...

That would be great thanks NC! I've got £130 for OH's Suit and £130 for Best Man, oldest Stepson and little Stepson all to be kitted out as well! neither mothers will help with suit payments so it's entirely down to us to provide this for them! Grrr!

Have they got suits they could wear? You can get the waistcoat and cravat in BHS in a similar pink to BM for £35... Full suits for boys £45

na neither of them do! the oldest wouldn't fit kids sizes anymore - classed as an adult and little one, well I am hoping that his mother might get clever and realise that we are both getting married 20 days apart, maybe we could halve the suit for him!

You could ask her... Whats the worse she could say NO... Or if colours are the same suggest going halfers?

Probably would say no! Then again, she might surprise me! (I doubt it though!)
No idea of her colours - don't really want to know anything about her wedding or have her know about ours tbh! The less she knows the better really!

Hmmm, never thought of that Ah well, fingers crossed you can use the same one
