Wedding Suit ~2000 Euro

[Blacky89]

Hi all, I was hoping to get some advice on purchasing a suit for my wedding. I would have a budget of around 2000 Euro, and in terms of availability for me, I am in Ireland, and could travel to London with ease also.

In Ireland, I could avail of Canali and Corneliani MTM days that they do at a local department store a couple of times a year. My understanding is that a MTM suit from one of these days ends up costing around 2.2k euro. In London, so far I have seen that Richard James and Gieves and Hawkes seem to do MTM for around that budget. I am finding it hard to find consistent information/reviews on the above-mentioned brand's MTM services, so I'm a little in the dark about those.

I do not wear suits for work, and so far my wardrobe consists of a couple of high street RTW suits that I had altered. I like a very slim fit, modern looking, single breasted suit, and would ideally like to get something that I could wear again(at least to other formal occasions). Could anyone provide some advice on other options I have missed, or general advice on the options that I have mentioned(maybe some are to be avoided?). I know I won't really be able to go bespoke at my price point, but I think MTM would probably still be a nice step up from what I've experienced so far, for a special occasion.

Thanks!

Cad and the Dandy in London. They can cut you a bespoke suit at that price, possibly with money to spare if you want a relatively standard fabric.

The suits are cut in England and most of the tailoring done in India, with adjustments made on-site. I have 4 suits and as many separate jackets and trousers from them (ordered through their Swedish sister-company, with suits cut and sewn at the same stuidos), and I've been very happy with the work.
