Sharon says: "It’s never too early to start looking for the perfect suit for your wedding day. Follow these simple guidelines for a stress-free and fun experience!

- Decide on what colours suit you before choosing bridesmaids’

dresses, as this colour is often worn close to your face as a tie or cravat – it’s important it doesn’t drain away your natural colour.

- Be prepared to try a range of styles, even those outside of your comfort zone as you may be surprised how good it looks
on you.

- There will be many men at your wedding wearing suits, so choose an outfit that makes you stand out with a contrasting, textured or a check or patterned waistcoat. A floral tie will help you look the most distinguished man in the room.

-  A waistcoat is the most important part of your outfit; once the jacket’s removed, it will keep you looking smart and distinguished.

-  Ensure the suit fits you perfectly, especially the trouser length, and make sure you take shoes to your fitting. Book a final one close to the wedding day.

- Have fun, experiment and find the best suit that makes you feel special and confident as you walk out on your wedding day."

Expert says prenups aren't just for the rich and famous

Legal experts at Richard Nelson LLP are urging Brits to rethink who prenups are really for. While often seen as something reserved for high-profile couples, data suggests they remain largely overlooked in everyday relationships. Just 7 percent of divorced Brits had a prenuptial agreement in place before separating, highlighting a significant gap between perception and reality. Regionally, attitudes vary. Manchester has emerged as the UK's 'prenup capital', with 13 percent of divorced couples having one in place, compared to 8 percent in London and 11 percent in Birmingham. Meanwhile, cities including Liverpool and Southampton reported no uptake among those surveyed.
