“Hi there. I’m not getting married until the end of the year but my fiancée has been at me to go and get my suit sorted soon. I know what I want (something plain, black and smart) so I know I won’t be weeks deciding on ‘the one’! I don’t think I need to be looking so soon but she’s insisting. Plus I’m still carrying a little holiday weight (!) that I’ll need to get rid of over the next few months. When’s the right time to go and get my suit sorted?” Justin

Hi Justin, thank you for your enquiry. At Bond Brothers, we usually recommend that you come in at least 10-12 weeks before your wedding to have the suits booked. Regards, The Bond Brothers Team.

The length of time to get fitted for your suit before your wedding depends on a couple of factors. If you are planning major gym sessions to add bulk or a weight loss campaign, it’s best to visit your suit supplier and get an initial measurement done but advise them that your measurements will change. They will be able to build this into their stock requirements for your wedding. If you’re concerned about timing because you want to get something made to measure, you’re right this requires more time and more fittings – you will need to allow 6-8 weeks.

Anywhere between 6 months and 6 weeks, particularly if any member of the wedding party is outsize or an unusual fitting.
