Concealed carry locations wearing a suit

I carry my G19 (same size) in a Fobus paddle holster every Sunday to church. I am a pastor, and some people in the congregation would definately freak out and maybe even leave the church if they found out. No one can tell that I am carrying, even people that do actually know that I have a liscense to carry. It works great cause when I go to sit down I can slide whichever way I want to make it more comfortable for sitting. It is also really light and pulls the gun closer to me than any other holster. I also like the Don Hume Slide holster. I find IWB to be uncomfortable. On the downside though, you can't take the jacket off, but many in my congregation like me to keep it on anyway (They don't care if I do take it off.) It was a 100 degrees out today, and I was fine. Whatever you find comfortable though is best.
 
I'm still experimenting with how to carry in various states of attire.

Last week I travelled on business in a business suit. I wore a "fanny pack" specially made for carrying:

I have no affiliation with this vendor whatsoever.

I carried my full sized 9mm HK USP in it. It concealed well under my buisness suit jacket. It was perfectly comfortable, and even with my jacket off, I didn't draw a second glance that I am aware of.

ThunderWear/SmartCarry are way uncomfortable to me.

I also feel fine carrying my Ruger LCP in a right front buisness pants pocket inside a DeSantis Nemesis if I want to avoid the fanny pack.
 
During the years in which I had to wear a suit, I wore a shoulder-holster. It fit both me and my Sig P220 like a charm.

Nowadays, I wear a sport coat quite a bit for my freelance work--I wear the same shoulder holster, but with my beloved Series 70 Gov't 1911.
