We recommend beginning your search around 9–12 months before your wedding.

That doesn’t necessarily mean ordering your suit a year in advance. It gives you time to explore different styles, colours and fabrics and understand what suits you.

By this stage, you will hopefully know your venue, wedding date and perhaps the overall feel or colour palette of your wedding.

Quick Verdict: Start looking around 9–12 months before your wedding, but don’t worry if you have less time — options will still exist.

When Should I Order My Wedding Suit?

For a hire suit, ordering should normally be completed well before the wedding so that the correct sizes and outfits can be reserved. Your suit company should advise you on the exact timeline based on your wedding date.
