    Hi, you might find this thread useful:

    We are hiring our suits from an independent men's shop and it's £95 for full set of jacket, trousers, shirt, waistcoat, cravat and cuff links. But because we are ordering over 5, we get one free and they had 5% off orders is Feb so it works out £77.30 each which we were pleased with.
    I initially wanted to get them from the bridal shop the bridesmaids dresses are coming from but they wanted £95 for whole package with no deals.

    The men have all said they will pay for their own suits though, I thought we were paying for the 3 little bridesmaids were are having, but then when it came to actually paying both lots of parents then offered. But I suppose it's best to budget just in case they can't pay, I didn't want to ask because I didn't think it was fair to ask them to be part of the wedding, then tell them how much it's going to cost them!

    We are getting ours from Moss Bros but we are just getting 3 piece (jacket, trousers and waistcoat) as I am quite particular about colour matching and they didn't have the cravats in the right colour.

    They are £78 each (this includes cover for any damages) and it is hire 5 get one free.

    As Moss Bros is Nationwide it makes it easier for everyone to get measured for their suits as one of the Ushers and my Dad are at the other end of the country,

    We used Moss Bros, same as minimorecambe.

    We picked the suits up yesterday and they are perfect. The only problem was once of the cravats was the incorrect colour, not a problem for them though, the guy at the shop sorted it quickly. OH got his suit free, which he was chuffed about! Smiley smile

    We are using our local bridal shop, where I bought my dress and my flower girls dress. Handily, it's literally over the road from church, should there be any wardrobe malfunctions lol, particularly as my dad will be travelling and only arriving on the eve of the wedding! The packages we chose are £119 which includes insurances. For this, the fellas have got the 'higher end' tails, trousers, waistcoat, cufflinks, shirt, pocket square, ruffle tie and leather patent shoes. They get to keep the shirt and cufflinks. We only hired 3 but they too have the hire 5 pay for 4 deal.

    We're using Greenwoods. We have the groom, best man and 3 x page boys and it's working out just over £300. It's 30% off at the moment
