Wedding Suit FAQs — Salt Lake City
What's an appropriate groom's look for an LDS temple sealing vs. the separate reception?
The Salt Lake Temple sealing is reverent and conservative — a dark suit, white shirt and restrained tie. The later reception (often a large open-house) allows a sharper, celebration-ready look. KCT builds both from one owned wardrobe instead of two rentals.
Can KCT outfit two distinct looks (temple ceremony plus reception) cost-effectively?
Yes. Because SLC weddings run on a two-part rhythm, KCT coordinates a refined sealing look and a sharper reception look that you keep — far better value than paying double rental fees for the same day.
How do out-of-state groomsmen get sized for a Temple Square reception without a fitting?
Each groomsman submits measurements remotely and KCT ships a pre-tailored, color-matched suit to his home. The party arrives at the Joseph Smith Memorial Building or The Grand View already coordinated, no Utah fitting needed.
What's the lead time if our Wasatch Front wedding is during the June–August peak?
Utah books fast with shorter engagements — start shopping 4–5 months out and order 7–9 weeks before the event. The dry Wasatch summer (June–August) is the firm peak, so order earlier when the party is dispersed.
Where can I get same-week wedding suit alterations in Salt Lake City?
KCT Menswear offers in-house alterations with same-week turnaround for Salt Lake City wedding parties. Order 7-9 weeks before the event is the recommended order-by rule so there's time for fittings before the rehearsal dinner.
