Objective
Coordinate wedding reception attire for Aman and dress shirts for both dads (Aman’s dad + Jyot’s dad) via Jyot’s India-based tailor.
Context
Came out of Bangkok tailor shopping during the Thailand trip (May 18). Rajawongse Clothier quoted THB 30k and Majestic Tailors quoted THB 32.5k for a 3-piece VBC suit, but Jyot felt the ~$500 CAD savings over bespoke back home wasn’t worth it for custom fitting. His India tailor already has his dad’s measurements.
Aman’s Reception Outfit (Decided)
- Sport blazer (Jyot approved)
- Button-down with black buttons (tuxedo-style shirt)
- Silk pants from mum (Jyot vetoed black Dockers, liked these)
Dress Shirts for Dads
- Get Aman’s dad’s measurements
- Jyot to connect Aman with his India tailor
- Confirm fabric, style, and pricing with tailor
- Place order with tailor
- Jyot’s dad: tailor already has sizing on file
- Aman’s dad: need to get measurements and send to tailor
Jyot’s Suit (Pending)
- Awaiting quote from Jyot’s India tailor
- Bangkok quotes for reference: THB 30k (Rajawongse) / THB 32.5k (Majestic) for 3-piece VBC
- Canada bespoke estimate: ~$1,750 CAD
- Decision pending India tailor response
