My fiance and I are getting married next July. We have bought him a gorgeous blue suit from Reiss called 'Denton'. We originally saw it on the website but when we went to buy it we found out there were only a few in his size left in the country! And there were no waistcoats left in any size! So we couldn't even buy a big one and have it adjusted. Now we either need to find someone willing to sell their waistcoat, or find matching fabric and have one made. I wouldn't even know here to begin with doing this. Can anyone help please? We live in Surrey.

God I wouldnt be sure eitehre where to start on this one, Maybe contact the suppliers direct and asked to be informed if any are returned etc?
Other than that speak to suit palces, fabris suppliers or seamstresses and see what they can suggest??
Not much help I no Im sorry x

hi, have you tried the big department shops, like HOFraser, Debhams, Fen-x? they usually have a lot of wedding attire that you can buy separately, maybe you can find something that matches? failing that, we have a craft supplies shop in newcastle (not sure about anywhere in surrey) that can match material to anything we take in. you could search around for one of those and a local seamstress? shouldn't be too expensive. x

A lot of grooms have a coloured/ivory waistcoat instead of matching which may be an option if you get stuck. Second hand sites such as bay of e and pr*loved might also be worth keeping an eye on.

Since your husband will be saying his vows and not closing the deal on a multimillion dollar transaction I think he'll be more than fine with a contrasting waistcoat. Matching 3 piece business suits screams banker. A contrasting waistcoat suggests bridal. The waistcoat doesn't have to match the groomsmen. Ivory as Alex suggested would be lovely.
