In this episode of the Wedding Help NI Podcast, Dale travels to Derry to visit MJ Menswear, where he’s joined by Jason to talk all things wedding suits, styling, and planning.

Jason breaks down what couples really need to know when it comes to wedding menswear, including:

When grooms should start suit shopping

Buying vs hiring suits (and how to save money for wedding parties)

Popular groom and groomsmen styles right now

Colour trends beyond the traditional black tux

Coordinating suits with bridesmaids and overall wedding themes

How MJ Menswear manages fittings, alterations, and last-minute timelines

They also discuss how couples can reduce stress by booking early, using flexible payment options, and treating suits as part of the overall wedding planning process — not an afterthought.

If you’re a groom (or bride!) trying to figure out what suits to choose, when to book, and how to keep costs sensible, this episode is packed with practical advice straight from the shop floor.

In this episode of the Wedding Help NI Podcast, we’re joined by Chris Rooney, founder of Champagne Memories Weddings & Events, one of the most recognisable and in-demand names in the Northern Ireland wedding industry.

Chris shares the real story behind the brand — how Champagne Memories began, how it grew into the business couples see today, and what it actually takes to build something successful in the wedding world.

This conversation goes far deeper than styling trends or logistics.

Chris speaks honestly about:

• Building and scaling a wedding business
• Maintaining high standards under pressure
• Navigating a year of intense personal challenges
• The emotional weight behind polished brands and perfect weddings
• The human reality behind Instagram, timelines, and flawless setups

It’s a powerful reminder — for both suppliers and couples — that behind every beautiful wedding is a real person, balancing creativity, responsibility, expectations, and real life.
