Custom wedding suits
for grooms in Guadalajara

At VAMANA, a Made to Measure wedding suit starts at MX$13,500 for two pieces and MX$15,000 for three. In Bespoke Full Canvas, from MX$24,000 for two pieces and MX$29,500 for three. All prices include Mexican VAT. The final price depends on the cloth you choose and is fixed at the first appointment.

Three to four months before the wedding. The making itself takes 2 to 3 weeks in Made to Measure and 4 to 6 weeks in Bespoke Full Canvas, but that extra margin lets you choose cloth unhurried, take fittings calmly, and resolve shirt, shoes and accessories.

Made to Measure adjusts a base pattern to your measurements, with high-quality fused interlining and one intermediate fitting, in 2 to 3 weeks.

Bespoke Full Canvas drafts a unique pattern from scratch, with horsehair canvas sewn by hand, shoulder, lapel and chest worked by hand, hand-cut buttonholes and several fittings during construction. It takes 60 to 80 hours of handwork and 4 to 6 weeks. Your pattern stays in the archive, so a second bespoke commission is faster and even more precise.

The groom should buy; the groomsmen should rent. The groom's suit is the only garment from the wedding that stays with him: it keeps being worn at other weddings, dinners and work events for years, and in Bespoke Full Canvas it improves with wear because the horsehair canvas moulds to the body. The groomsmen wear theirs for one afternoon, so a rental from MX$3,800 makes more sense. VAMANA does both, so the whole party shares the same cloth.

Yes. Rental is MX$3,800 for a two-piece suit, MX$4,300 for three pieces and MX$5,500 for a tuxedo, with a MX$1,000 refundable deposit. The garments are altered in our workshop and coordinated with the groom's suit. We arrange a single group appointment to size everyone on the same day.

Yes, and it's what we do best. Because the groom's suit and the groomsmen's rentals come out of the same workshop, we coordinate tone, lapel, length and details so the group genuinely looks assembled rather than vaguely similar. The groom keeps the distinction of wearing a garment made for him.

Yes. We regularly dress grooms flying in for destination weddings in Puerto Vallarta, Punta Mita, Careyes, Tequila, Chapala and Los Cabos. We speak English, we can take initial measurements remotely using our guide, and we schedule the fitting for the days you're in Guadalajara. The atelier can also hold the finished suit for up to 6 months.

For daytime or garden weddings at 26 to 32 °C, a light cool wool or a wool-linen blend, built without heavy canvas: it breathes and doesn't collapse. For evening or ballroom weddings, a worsted wool with more body, around Super 120 to 150, which drapes better and responds well to evening photography. In the rainy season, June through September, avoid pure linen — it creases with the humidity — and use a wool-linen blend instead.

Yes. Tuxedos from MX$15,000 in Made to Measure and from MX$25,000 in Bespoke Full Canvas. Three-piece morning coats and tailcoats from MX$22,000 in Made to Measure and from MX$59,000 in Bespoke Full Canvas. We also rent tuxedos at MX$5,500 for the groomsmen of a strictly formal wedding.

It's accounted for. That's why there are intermediate fittings and why the final alteration happens in the week before the wedding, not earlier. Suits are cut with inlay reserved in the main seams, so they can be let out or taken in without remaking the garment. If you're in the middle of a physical change, say so at the first appointment and we'll adjust the fitting schedule.

Yes. We hand-embroider a silk label into the lining with whatever you decide: your initials, the wedding date, or a phrase. It's the detail most appreciated years later, precisely because nobody sees it but the two of you.

Yes. Express delivery in 2 weeks for an additional 15% over list price, in both Made to Measure and Bespoke Full Canvas. Shirts to measure have a 5-day express, also at +15%. Write to us with the exact date of your wedding and we'll confirm what's possible.

A one-year sartorial guarantee and 90 days of guarantee on the finished garment. Repairs carry a one-week guarantee. Sales are not refundable in cash. The atelier can hold your garment for up to 6 months.

No. VAMANA gives no discounts off list price, ever. The published price is what everyone pays, and that protects whoever bought before you. What does exist is the VAMANA Private upgrade at MX$3,000 per garment, with an expanded selection of linings and finishes and the private attention of the atelier.

The atelier is at Av. Montevideo 3272, Col. Providencia, Guadalajara, Jalisco. We're open Monday to Friday 11:00–19:30 and Saturday 11:00–17:30, by appointment only; closed Sunday. You can book on WhatsApp or by calling +52 33 3062 9963. The first appointment lasts around an hour and you leave with the cloth chosen, the measurements taken and the price fixed.
