    Despite originally intending not to use an "old fashioned" place, we went with Morley's. Couldn't recommend them higher. Went to Suits You in Mahon Point a few times but didn't think they were great.

    Hi, I used Tom Murphy's on Patrick St. for my wedding suit. Found them great to deal with and they had a great selection.

    BTW in Morley's (and possibly others) if you ask, the groom will get free hire if you have 4 or so other suits being hired.

    We got our suits in Suits You and for 7 suits plus shoes, it cost around €750. The suits were fab and a little different to what we saw else where. However, when it came time to collect, some items were the wrong size so we had to go back a few days later for those. That was the only hitch!

    always make sure that the shop has the stock instore.we discovered some shops oredered the stock in a few days before the wedding.imagine if the wrong sizes arrive.it happened to a friend of mine.always ask are the outfits kept instore.the local shops such as tom murphys and morelys defionitely keep inhouse stock

    Got suits for the whole gang at Tom Murphy's and no complaints, very happy with them and nothing said when some were handed back a few days late. Would recommend them...
