If you’ve decided to purchase a suit for your wedding, you're taking on more work than simply renting a tux. Renting a tux, I'd be getting the total package, shoes, shirt, ties, etc... however, when purchasing a suit, it’s my job to piece everything together. If you're less worried about style, money, and individuality, going to The Men’s Warehouse will make suiting and accessorizing quick and painless. Walk in, cry help, and you'll be suited in less then 10 minutes. “Your Style Consultant,” the sales person, will do all the work, except undressing you in the dressing room. While I've used Men's Warehouse for years, for my wedding I'm going to do more hunting.
I started my search online, but hunting down suits and accessories is not an easy task. I’ve had some good finds, but the search was difficult, and you can’t get the feel for a suit by viewing it online. In addition, websites can be difficult to use, and often options are limited, colors are distorted, and items are out of stock.
My Advice: Go to the Mall.
Before you grab pitchforks and torches hear me out: mall-shopping can be a quick and painless process. A limited number of stores carry a smaller amount of suits, so what seems to be an endless day of shopping is just six stores and eight suits. You'll be able to find the suit you like, and you'll be on your way.
Who would you bring during suit shopping?
