I've got a wedding tomorrow.

I went M&S last night and got a new pair of shoes and shirt for £39.

I like it there, cheap and cheerful or expensive they have both choices.

I get all my shirts from there.

Will check M&S

Is Burtons any good? They seem to be giving free shoes, shirt & tie with the purchase of a suit.....always suspicious when you get loads of freebies thrown in!!

I wouldn't bother with a suit.

If it's raining you will wear something over it, if it's hot you won't wear the jacket.

Get a decent polo shirt, some trousers and shoes (if you need any of them) and an overcoat (if it's raining)

A nice shirt and a thin tie, no daft colours, just keep it simple. that's what i'll be going for in a couple of weeks. As long a the shirt is a good fit you'll look spot on.

Have a look in Reiss.

http://www.reissonline.com/mens/

They do some very nice smart gear.

I like the Grey look thats all over the place just now.

Like this http://images.asos.com/inv/media/0/7/3/0/1130370/grey/image1xxl.jpg sort of.

So its still smart, but not over smart.

Colin - all the piss from Burtons will be off the self. Good if you are a standard size.

I got a suit from Slaters (mens wear shoppy in Aberdeen) a couple of weeks back.

Think I went for a 44L in the end for the shoulder size , but had to get heaps taken in on the waist.

For a wedding though I'd 100% say a Kilt. Its just not right wearing a suit - you'll look english.

Polo shirt......to a wedding?

A fucking polo shirt

I wore a grey suit with a matching waistcoat, job's a good'un. There isn't much choice, you either wear a suit or you wear a kilt.
