05 Jul The Excusive Alterations Guide – Tweed Suits for Weddings

Are you busy planning wedding and have chosen a tweed weeding suit? The experts at Exclusive Alterations would love to help you.

Tweed wedding suits have become the norm in modern-day weddings.  It is not only about the bride anymore.  In modern wedding trends, grooms have become accustomed to sharing the spotlight as well. 

More and more brides and grooms are choosing tweed for their wedding day.  Your wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and it is the day to splurge a little to look good in your wedding photographs.

We have listed some helpful points in purchasing the perfect wedding suit for you.  A wedding suit for gentlemen should show your style and represent yourself accurately.

Here are the quick tips in purchasing a wedding suit:

• Find out what the level of formality of the event will be
• Synchronise with your bride so that your suit will complement her bridal gown style
• Determine the after-event usability of your tweed suit.
• Select some special trademarks for your suit to make it your own

For each occasion, your tweed suit can be used.

CASUAL

For a casual event such as a beach wedding, the best suit fabric would be a 100 percent cotton suit. Seeing as the weather would possibly be warmer and more humid, your custom wedding suit should be able to breathe and allow you the freedom to move comfortably. 

Other suit material options for this sort of event include linen and blended wool and linen fabric.  The key detail to attend to here is comfort. Your wedding suit and footwear must be comfortable and breathable. You do not want to feel uncomfortable and unsettled during the ceremony just because you decided to use the wrong fabric for the occasion. Colour should also complement the beach theme wedding. Stick to beige, tans, and light blues.

SEMI-CASUAL 

A semi-casual event like a garden wedding will require a suit that is elegant, but not too formal.  A soft grey tone, light blue, or beige for your wedding suit would be most suitable.  Choose a solid colour or something with texture and lines.

FORMAL

A strictly formal occasion, will require more of a traditional 3-piece-tweed suit, velvet bow tie, classic tan brogues.
