When should I come in for an in person appointment?
Engaged Couple
While most couples visit us somewhere between 6-9 months before their wedding date, we are ready to suit you up whether your wedding is one week or one year away and anything in between. WIth us, once an order is placed we ship within 2 business days, orders take an average of one week to arrive, and we also offer next day and two day expedited shipping options.
You can get a wedding group set up in our system at an any time whether you're a year or 4 weeks out from your wedding day, but here's our recommendation:
Finalize & Set-up your wedding group: Five/Six months before your wedding. This gives you time to think about and finalize your party's look. You can sort out the details, like deciding if you want to require your group members to all purchase the same shoe or if you'd rather that be listed as an optional style suggestion. This will help everyone stay clear on your wedding look and also help us make sure we're ready to support upcoming weddings.
Sending out your intro email: Four/Five months before your wedding. Your wedding party members will likely open the email, close it, and forget... until we send our auto-reminders out. From there, they will start ordering!
Ordering the suit sweet-spot: Three months to 6 weeks before your wedding. This allows your group to receive orders, place and receive any potential exchanges, and get the hem of the pant tailored before your big day! In this time frame, there is less room for any potential changes in body size or fit preference.
General Suit Fitting
We're excited to suit you up whether your event is tomorrow or next year. Typically our showrooms will help you nail down your sizes and then we'll place an order for you that will be sent to your home. WIth us, once an order is placed we ship within 2 business days, orders take an average of one week to arrive, and we also offer next day and two day expedited shipping options. However, if a store has the sizes you need you area also welcome to walk out with those items same day!
Please note, that our men's pants come unfinished and do need to be tailored. We like to recommend little to no break in the pants to give a clean finish. Here is a guide to help you find the perfect pant length.
Can you recommend a tailor in my area?
In general, we recommend searching for a dry cleaner in your area that offers alterations services and has great reviews.
However, if you're located near one of our showroom locations we do have a list of tailors we recommend working with.
What if I don't live near a SuitShop store?
Not near a showroom? No problem. We are an online first company and suit up the majority of our customers without ever meeting them in person. We have an easy, data-backed tool called the Fit Finder and an extensive Fit Guide including size charts if you happen to have measurements of your body. We also offer virtual appointments where we can discuss fit and guide you through measurement taking. Even if we don't nail the size on the first try, we offer free unlimited exchanges on all orders. We want you to LOVE your suit! We also carry matching suits for kids!
