8yo DS needs wedding outfit - close family wedding

8 replies

Squirrelfruitandnutkin · 30/09/2017 20:37

We are off to dh's brothers wedding. Ds is 8 and needs an outfit. Apparently it needs to match the groom and ushers- navy blue suits.

Can anyone suggest something?
I'd rather not spend £££ on something he'll wear once. And school trousers are grey so not going to be able to use them.

Help! 😬

this should fit the bill

Ds is pretty tall but skinny, I'm not sure 8-9 would fit. Thanks for looking. I'd have to feel fairly sure of sizing to buy off eBay.
Ideally something he can try on so can make sure it fits.

Why does it need to match? If he is in the wedding party (only reason I can think they want him to match) then they ought to be paying!

H&M do blue jackets and trousers for boys although not sure if the right navy

jacket

Although agree with pp - why should you pay if they're insisting it matches.

I would suggest eBay too.

I got ds the suit for my wedding from eBay, a worn once monsoon one that was perfect and only cost £10 compared to the £50 odd it would have cost new.

Go and try some on in some shops and then you know what age/size to look for on eBay.

napqueen - a very good question!

Will check out H&M believe. :)
