Not sure what your budget is, but Samuelsohn MTM suits at Harry Rosen are your best bang for buck. You can get a very nice two-piece suit, for all body shapes and sizes for $1295. You can even pick out certain custom details like the fabric, colour, inner liner, buttons, cuffs and a few other details.

An experienced MTM specialist will measure you and make sure it is done right, so it's not just some random schmuck who just started their first day. The process was pretty simple and your fiance can even participate in the process. From the moment your order is taken, it will take no more than 5 or 6 weeks for delivery to store. Once it's at the store, they measure you for the pants, about a week's turnaround time, and done. The best part is they are made in Montreal with Italian fabrics. The quality blows OTR suits out of the water. I would suggest not getting one from Indochino if at all possible.

If you plan on getting any kind of MTM suit, try to show up in any existing suit or shirts you wear, and dress shoes (if at all possible.) This REALLY helps the MTM specialist understand your body type and where he/she can make the correct measurements, and also to suit your personal style/preferences. And if you do not like the process or don't feel good about it, you can always say no and walk away. In the end, only you can decide if an oddly fitting $600 suit is better than a $1300 MTM suit that will last you a good 5 - 7 years+. I am of the opinion that a suit is only as good as it fits. Other details can follow after. After all, it is your wedding. You're going to want to feel good and be comfortable in front of your wife and your friends and family. Good luck and congrats!
