Why Tweed Is The Top Choice For Wedding Suits
Posted by S. Bookster on 25th Nov 2024
Deciding what to wear for your wedding day naturally deserves some significant amount of thought.
You want to look smart and well presented for your partner, and you also want to look great in all the wedding photographs, as well, but you don’t want to sacrifice comfort for style or you won’t enjoy the day… so definitely take your time, research your options and try on different styles and different fabrics to see what you like and what you don’t.
One fabric that’s certainly stood the test of time where wedding attire is concerned is tweed, a really stunning material that has its roots in Scotland in the 18th century, first hand-woven by shepherds and farmers to help them stay warm and dry even in the face of the country’s famously wild weather.
Tweed has come a long way since its somewhat humble beginnings and it’s now a top choice for grooms who want to look their best on the big day.
It comes in a variety of different colours and patterns, everything from herringbone and houndstooth to check, plaid, stripes and gun club, so you’re sure to be able to find something that suits the style of your wedding to perfection.
The material is also so versatile that it can be easily dressed up or down. If you want to go formal in a full suit this is easily achieved, or you can go for a more relaxed aesthetic with a tweed blazer and some smart trousers, all depending on the unique nature of your wedding.
But this isn’t the only basis for its appeal and, aside from looking the part, tweed is a particularly practical choice, as well. The fabric is tough and durable, so will withstand the rigours of the day easily and it’s both warm and waterproof, so perfect for both autumn and winter weddings.
Regardless of whether you want a formal tweed suit or something more laidback, it’s always advisable to have your garments tailored to fit you, giving you the confidence you need to stand up in front of your loved ones to say your vows.
Looking good is akin to feeling good, after all, and this is something that we firmly appreciate here at Bookster Tailoring.
