Hi ya. I cant find any guidance on this anywhere and know that one of you lovely hitcheders will know the answer. I am trying to work out my budget for suits for the men in the bridal party (trying to see if I can stretch my budget to the tog I really want) , but am not sure if as well as the groom, ushers, best man and page boy are my dad and my HTBs dad meant to also be in the same suits or do they just wear whst ever they like? Also any suggestions for cheap but quality suit hire or purchase?

    Hi not sure on whats traditional but I know my partners dad will be in same suit and at other weddings the brides father has also been in same suit. We are using moss bross, of you have more than four suits the groom gets his free... thats with cravats/ties and waistcoats too. I think debenhams does the same if that helps xx

    I'm getting my dad the same suit as he's walking me down the aisle and I think that traditionally they wear the same suit as the Groom, best man etc. I'm not getting a suit for OH's dad though - he can wear whatever he fancies.

    Not sure what the rules are, but we are hiring for the same suit: groom, best men (two of them!) and Dad of bride.

    Ushers and brother of the bride are wearing the same colour in the tie and will also have button holes.

    We have the groom,best man,1 usher,my dad and partners dad and my 3 year old son all in the same suits. Only difference is the groom will have a different coloured cravat to show he's the groom.

    Hiring them from debenhams as they seem good quality and if you hire 5 the groom goes for free

    None of them if you don't want them too. There isn't a rule as far as I know, most people seem to have the groom, ushers, best man and the two dads in matching suits. Wasn't for me though.

    We have hired suits for the groom, best man, father of bride, father of groom, ushers and best man. We hired from Debenhams and got 10% early bird discount and groom goes free.

    Yep also got suits for groom, 2 best men and both dads. We have no ushers so no one else needs one. Oh and my 3 year old nephew has the same waistcoat and a bow tie to match their ties.
