As wedding season approaches, it’s possible to don a hand-stitched, custom-tailored suit that fits impeccably, feels luxurious, and doesn’t break the bank.

A bespoke suit comes with many design options, fabrics, lapel styles, and more. This guide will help you better understand the different suit styles available so you can design the perfect custom wedding suit.

While most made-to-measure suits start in upwards of four figures, André Emilio lets you customize any of the pieces from their 1000+ design catalogue. Since every piece is made from scratch to each client’s measurements and specifications, the endless design options can feel overwhelming. Let’s break it down.

The Classic Black 3-Piece Suit – $499

For those who appreciate timeless elegance, the Classic Black 3-Piece Suit is a must-have. Crafted from 120s wool, this suit offers a sleek silhouette with a pick-stitched peak lapel, flat-front trousers, and a silk lining. The addition of a waistcoat elevates the ensemble, making it perfect for formal weddings or evening receptions.

Textured Black Tuxedo with Peak Lapel– $435

Timeless, sharp, and built to flatter every frame, this peak lapel tuxedo is the go-to choice for weddings and black-tie events. The tailored fit ensures you look effortlessly polished in your hand-stitched tuxedo without spending Savile Row prices.

Midnight Blue Shawl Lapel Tuxedo – $495


The deep blue tone offers a subtle twist on classic black, perfect for evening receptions. The smooth shawl lapel adds a hint of old-school glamour and James Bond energy.

Charcoal Grey Suit with Navy Vest – $499

This ensemble combines the versatility of a charcoal grey suit with the bold contrast of a navy waistcoat. The half-canvas construction ensures durability and a structured fit, while the silk lining adds a touch of luxury. Ideal for grooms seeking a modern twist on a classic look.

Custom Dark Chocolate Tuxedo with Black Lapel – $625

While this is the only piece on our list that is over $500, we think the extra $125 is definitely worth it for your big day. If you want something formal but with a touch of personality, this charcoal number with black accents is your pick. It’s bold enough to stand out in photos, yet refined enough for a traditional ceremony.

Coffee Brown 3-Piece Suit – $499

For those looking to add a bit of warmth to their wardrobe, the Coffee Brown 3-Piece Suit is an excellent choice. The pick-stitched peak lapel and shawl lapel waistcoat provide subtle detailing, while the flat-front trousers maintain a clean, modern look. This suit transitions seamlessly from day to night, making it a versatile addition to any wardrobe.

Grey Suit with Black Vest – $499

This combination of a grey suit and black waistcoat offers a striking contrast that’s both sophisticated and contemporary. The half-canvas construction ensures a sharp fit, while the silk lining adds a luxurious feel. Perfect for weddings that call for a blend of tradition and modernity.

Ivory-White Tuxedo Suit – $499

Why it matters: Pure, minimal, and ready for impact. This tux isn’t just a statement—it’s the statement. It’s got that knock-’em-dead finish without screaming for attention.
Wear it when: You want to outshine the venue. Weddings, high-roller galas, or any night where blending in isn’t an option.

Self-Textured Green Suit – $499

For those daring enough to embrace color, the Self-Textured Green Suit offers a unique and stylish option. The textured fabric adds depth and interest, while the pick-stitched peak lapel and shawl lapel waistcoat provide classic tailoring elements. Though slightly above the $500 mark, it’s a standout piece that ensures all eyes are on you.

Custom Brown Peak Lapel Suit – $499

Why it matters: Classic tailoring with a warm twist. The peak lapels and vest pack all the visual charm of a shoot-from-the-hip GQ spread—but in earthy shades you can actually relax in.
Wear it when: You want your suit to quietly whisper sophistication, not shout about it. Ideal for mid-day meetings or whiskey-and-cigar afternoons.

Custom Pastel Blue Suit – $499

Why it matters: Soft as daybreak, bold as the first swim of summer. This pastel blue rig nails that “just rolled in from the Hamptons” look without the existential dread of keeping it pristine.
Wear it when: Spring brunches, garden parties, or “Sorry I’m late!” Instagram stories—this suit boosts everything around it.

Why We’re Loving These Picks

Like those under-$500 suits GQ swore by last spring—soft linens, relaxed cuts, full-on style for less—André Emilio’s collection gives you that same high-value punch, but elevated. No more snarling about wrinkled seersucker or shallow cuts: these suits blend luxury, wearability, and a hell of a lot of personality.

So whether you’re about to seal a deal, charm a wedding crowd, or just turn heads on your daily commute, André Emilio has your back—without the “wallet regret.”
