What we do

Kids' Suit Alterations in Gainesville at GA Suit Warehouse.

A 7-year-old ring bearer showed up on a Saturday morning two weeks before a Chateau Elan wedding. The 5-piece set we fitted him into was perfect in the shoulders and chest, but the pants were three inches too long and the jacket sleeve covered most of his hand. By Wednesday afternoon the suit was pressed, growth allowance left in the hem, and the boy walked his aunt down the aisle looking the part. Lake Lanier wedding season runs hot from April through October and ring bearer fittings on Pearl Nix Pkwy are most of our spring Saturday mornings.

Kids' Suit Alterations in Gainesville at GA Suit Warehouse covers boys' formal wear from age 4 up through teen sizes. Ring bearers and junior groomsmen for Hall County weddings. Communion suits for the March-May parish season. Graduation suits in May and June. Funeral suits when the call comes in mid-week. Easter and Christmas church fittings. Same master tailors that handle the wedding tuxedos and groom suits run the kids' bench with the same line-item pricing. Pants hem $18, waist take in $24, jacket sleeve $25, jacket sides $40. Same-day rush on hems and waist adds $10 if you walk in by 11 AM. Standard turn 3 to 5 business days.

The thing most parents dont expect is the growth allowance. A boy who measures perfectly today is two inches taller next May. We hem with extra fabric left in the original hem and mark the allowance amount on the receipt so you know how much room there is for future let-outs — usually 1 to 2 inches in the pants and half an inch in the jacket sleeve. The receipt comes back next year, the suit goes back on the bench, and the let-out runs cheaper than a fresh hem because the work is half done. Kids' 5-piece sets start at $129.99 sized for ring bearers and junior groomsmen, and we tailor them in-house on the same bench that fits the groom.
