Vintage Wedding Inspiration part 2

If men can run the world, why can't they stop wearing neckties? How intelligent is it to start the day by tying a little noose around your neck?

So in Part 1 I focused on our dresses and where you could buy lovely vintage ones, now to focus on the other, equally important, half of the wedding - the men!

So let's start off with U.K. suppliers :

Tweedmans Vintage is a great site if your beau wants to go completely traditional. They have some very expensive looking items on there for a good price.

Rusty Zipper has a great collection that's also searchable by decade. Good prices all round and a friendly interface too :)

Revival Retro is probably my favourite pick for vintage mens suits, the one problem is they can run quite expensive when you add all those separate bits up, but when you look at the clothes they have for sale, you'll understand why this is.

40s Clothing - a website that has ever changing stock, so keep an eye out and see if you can grab a bargain

U.S. suppliers :

Posh Girl Vintage - I know, I know...this doesn't sound like a place to find stuff for you boys but trust me and click the link - they have a mens section of the website and you may just find that scarf, bow tie or shirt that you've been looking for!

American Vintage - This is a good site for shirts and accessories, have a look and see what goodies you may find!

Other than that I don't (currently) know of other 'specialist' sites, there's all the usual sites like Ebay, Etsy etc and other sites selling vintage clothing but not necessarily for weddings.

Always head out to your local markets as well as you never know what someone might get rid of, you know what they say - one mans garbage is another mans treasure!

Happy Shopping!
