Why Should Grooms and Brides Plan Their Wedding Suit Early?
Delaying suit planning can result in fewer fabric choices, rushed fittings, or increased costs. Our clients benefit from starting early, gaining access to our full fabric library, and enjoying a tailored experience that reflects their style and the wedding theme.
Planning early allows:
-
Greater choice in luxury tailoring fabrics
-
Time for multiple fittings and style revisions
-
Coordination with wedding colour palettes and dress codes
-
A stress-free experience with no compromises on fit or design
Clients who begin the process 9 to 12 months before the wedding consistently express confidence in their appearance and peace of mind during final preparations.
The Recommended Timeline For Buying a wedding suit
9 to 12 Months: Style Discovery and Consultation
Start by gathering inspiration. Review formalwear looks online, in magazines, and through films or cultural icons. This is the ideal time to align your suit vision with your partner’s dress, wedding venue, and season. During your first consultation, our stylists will help you define the perfect look.
Discuss fit preferences, fabric weight, colour schemes, and any distinguishing details such as lapel types, linings, or monogramming.
6 Months: First Fitting and Tailoring Direction
Sample suits are tried during your first in-store session. This helps determine whether bespoke, made to measure, or formalwear rental is best for your timeline and budget. Preferred fabrics, such as Italian worsted wool or seasonal tweeds, are selected and cut based on your measurements.
Bring your partner if possible to co-curate a cohesive visual story between your two outfits.
3 Months: Groomsmen Coordination and Order Finalisation
With your suit underway, it’s time to schedule fittings for your groomsmen. Fielding & Nicholson offers in-person and remote measurement services to ensure visual consistency across the wedding party. We recommend choosing a harmonised palette but allowing subtle personalisation in accessories, linings, or lapels.
1 Month: Adjustments and Detail Refinement
Your suit is nearly complete. We know people tend to go on a diet of sorts ahead of their big day so we adjust the fit for optimal comfort and style. Shoulder structure, sleeve length, trouser break, and overall balance are reviewed. This fitting ensures movement is easy and posture is maintained across the ceremony and reception.
1 Week: Final Styling Check and Collection
Attend your final appointment for styling confirmation. Try on the suit with your wedding shirt, shoes, and accessories. We ensure every detail is pressed, packed, and ready for the big day.

Will i be going there again? yes
minor point was also the ease of the location. Very central London but a minute walk from the nearest car park.
absolutely recommend
Lewis took me through the whole process step by step and made it so easy. He was great at listening to my ideas, making suggestions, coming up with a range of options in the end helped me create an incredible looking suit. It included some customisations that make the suit personal to me, and some really cool details that make it subtly stand out (like the angled button holes and coloured stitching).
The service was exceptional with Lewis always happy to go the extra mile for me.
I have the only suit in the world of its kind and it looks amazing.
I met up with Lewis who ran through a range of options as well as giving great advice on colours, what would look best on me etc.
We went for a 3-piece navy blue and I couldn’t be happier with the results. The fit, cut and colour were all outstanding and delivered in a speedy and efficient manner. Lewis’s communication is very good and he kept me updated throughout. Knowing that they will continue to alter the size if I gain or lose weight to keep the suit looking sharp shows the great customer service they provide.
I recently met up with Ian Fielding-Calcutt and we discussed looking at a smart casual option for next time.
It’s such a pleasure to work with Fielding & Nicholson to have the bespoke personal service and highly recommend them.
Her attention to detail and willingness to listen to my specific needs made the whole experience incredibly smooth and enjoyable. The fabrics are top-notch, and the tailoring is immaculate—each shirt feels custom-made for both my body and lifestyle.
I couldn’t be happier with the result and am so grateful for the care and expertise Nathalie brought to the project. Highly recommend Fielding and Nicolson for anyone looking for personalized, high-quality clothing, especially for those with specific needs like mine!
Wouid just like to bring my most recent visit to your showroom to your attention ..
Several weeks ago I linked in with Natalie May regarding a custom shirt. All good and I will be recieving soon .. However her knowledge and professionalism hit a note with me and yesterday we had a further appointment to discuss a bespoke suit and some corrections on a suit I had made by another supplier. I have to say the service was impeccable , relaxed but professional and put me totally at ease .. Obviously I have now purchased the suit and look forward to the remainder of the process. Please pass on my thanks to Natalie a true professional and I will certainly be reccomending to those who appreciate such service and quality
Kind regards and all my best to you and your team
