    Hi there
    Its up to the bride and groom to look after the suits, renting is much more common and will save you money! black tie are very good, im renting my suits there for my wedding in june, they have athe best range of stuff and i think they have an offer on at the moment, you should expect to pay in around a hundred euro per suit, the groom and best man would prob expect to get their owm shoe's.

    agree with keithmaster. Rent them the suits, usually come with shirts and ties, expect them to find own shoes but do dictate the colour or you could end up with one pair of brown among black or visa versa. Good luck. :-)

    Deffo Rent ! Save youself a fortune , my partner is renting 6 suits and got a fantastic deal .. chances are best man etc wont wear them again so its an unnecessary expensive for you to buy them...

    Hi Memet, In my experience (Work in a Suit hire shop in town) People tend to dress the "top Table" of the wedding. Usually groom, groomsmen and dad(s). again 100-150 should be sufficient.
