Incredible suit and superb service
I couldn't be happier that I chose Ben Lawrence to make my wedding suit - Stephen went above and beyond and the final result was better than I could have ever imagined. With just a rough idea of what I wanted, I was taken through a plethora of options for the fabric, cut and style of my suit. Stephen gave me expert advice on which elements would work together and I was stunned with the amount of detail we went into on each part of my three-piece. The personalisation touches were also great, and enabled me to make sure the suit is unlike any other I have. The attention to detail on the fit of the suit was also second to none. I had so many compliments about the suit on my wedding day and would not hesitate to recommend Ben Lawrence to anyone.

Fantastic service
This was a suit for my wedding and so I wanted it to be special. Not only did Ben Lawrence deliver this but the whole process was really enjoyable. Stephens enthusiasm and experience in what he does made what could be a daunting process straightforward, listening to what I was looking for and being able to steer me in the direction of making good choices. I was delighted with the end result.

10/10 Tailored Three-Piece Suit + Tailored Shirts & Ties
Ben Lawrence was outstanding. From my pre consultation to my final suit fitting, Stephen was truly excellent and delivering a first class experience. Their knowledge, expertise and quality shone throughput the process my suit purchase. Their understanding of their field is second to none and allowed me to feel stress free during the busy wedding planning process. My finished suit was absolute perfection, with my desired mid-grey, glen plaid cloth secured by them from Holland & Sherry Ltd, Savile Row. Stephen went above and beyond ensuring every style element of my attire (shoes, socks, weight of shirt, collar, cuffs, braces and Italian silk tie) complimented the overall look. Their tailored shirts are of outstanding quality and fit. They were able to accommodate my unique request of a cocktail cuff, which is a rarity. The outcome was superb and just what I wanted. They performed same first clas service to all my seven groomsmen measuring and fitting them all with tailored and personalized shirts and ties. I highly recommend Ben Lawrence for tailoring, their service is one of best I have ever experienced. I had absolute trust in their craftsmanship at every stage. Stephen was friendly and trustworthy as well as being flexible to accommodate me for fittings at their HQ, my home and also at my office in London.

Highly recommended!
Finding the right suit with the right fit on the most important day of your life can be stressful, especially when your bride-to-be is going to be looking absolutely stunning as she stands next to you! Any groom wants to look and feel their best, right?
In the lead up to my wedding, I had struggled to find my suit looking through various suppliers. The big day was getting closer, and I wasn’t having much luck. I then came across Stephen at Benjamin Lawrence. He was responsive to my initial enquiry, asking the right questions to understand exactly what I was looking for, and the issues I had experienced in my search. He booked me an appointment without delay, and had fabric samples ready to show me the many options from which I could choose, and cost and timescale information to hand as well.
Once my fabric, style and details had been chosen, 6 weeks later the suit was in and ready to try on. Stephen kept me updated in the interim, and contacted me to book an appointment as soon as the suit had been altered ready for first fitting. After a couple of measurements and further alterations, my suit was ready to collect.
Stephen made the whole process fun, exciting, and an experience to remember - as it should be for a groom choosing his wedding suit. I would highly recommend him, and feel fortunate that such a great tailor is based in the local area.

A Fantastic Experience
The team at Ben Lawrence made my experience shopping for a wedding suit an incredibly enjoyable one. Being quite the novice in men's tailoring, I was walking through the process expertly and couldn't be happier with the outcome. Thank you to Stephen and the team!

Wedding suit
Stephen at Ben Lawrence did an amazing job with my wedding suit. The end to end experience was professional, knowledgeable and relaxed - perfect for someone like me who is pretty clueless in this area and avoids clothes shopping at all costs. The final suit is perfect, it looked amazing on the day and will be treasured for years to come
