WEDDING SUITS FAQs

While you can select a colour based on your wedding theme and location, the most popular colour is navy – a classic and versatile colour. In addition, gray and black are also ranking colours away from a classic wedding suit.

This is a choice made by the couple totally dependent on their budget. Other reasons are taken into consideration where the groom pays for his tuxedo or suit and that of the groomsmen. Alternatively, the groom can ask the boys to chip 25 – 50% of the cost since they are the wearers.
