Question 1

I'm looking for attire for my spring wedding; what advice can you share with me?

Accepted Answer

Spring is such an exciting season for weddings. Floral and fauna choices always heavily dictate colour palettes this time of year. Choose fresh pastels and tints rather than stronger shades to capture the crisp spring light. As the weather can vary, you'll want to keep that brightness. I strongly recommend three-piece attire with a waistcoat for an extra layer of warmth for those outdoor moments. The Peter Posh range carries a variety of options that work with spring colours and checks that continue to be popular. The left Hadley suit in this picture is perfect if you're working with a lemon or yellow colour palette. The floral print tie from Heirloom complements the subtle royal blue check. Or you can break up a solid colour block with a checked waistcoat from the Mulberry range, here shown with the silver Knighton suit. Cravats also move a plain suit away from feeling like work or business attire. If you're leaning towards a lilac or pink palette, the Alveley suit on the right is perfect as it carries an amethyst tone.

Question 2

My hubby-to-be wants to wear something that's ontrend. What styles, colours and materials are popular right now?

Accepted Answer

Tweeds in all colours are proving extremely popular, either as a full three-piece suit or a waistcoat. Paired with the Peter Posh Stretton or the Westbury Royal Blue Mohair Lounge Suit, the waistcoat allows you to have that tweed look without being too warm to wear – especially in the summer months. Another trending look is the patterned three-piece suits, like this gorgeous Alveley one. I've booked several weddings with tuxedos lately for couples seeking a more formal and elegant look on their wedding day.
