A few more tips to save on the groom's attire.
Skip the suit – buying a button down shirt and black pants are much cheaper than a suit or tux.
Check thrift stores – Many guys wear a suit once and then gain weight and get rid of their suit. Or sadly will wear a suit to an event like funeral then want nothing to do with it again. This is where you can save and don't be afraid of little alterations!
