please don't let this be you...
Buying or renting a tuxedo is a subject I spend a lot of time discussing on my site, so this morning I want to quickly go over three reasons to buy instead of rent.
It's About Fit -Fit is probably the most important element overlooked by the majority of grooms. If you've spent any time searching through your friends wedding pictures on Facebook you'll see their cuffs are often hanging over their palms and their pants are folding over around their shoes. Yes, when you rent a tux they take your measurements, but honestly it seems that when the tuxes come in they might as well not have measured you at all. You can rent the most expensive tux in the shop, but if it's not correctly fit you've wasted your money. Maybe I've just had a back luck, but it seems that the major rental locations aren't very precise with fit, and most grooms don't recognize the problem. When buying a tuxedo you're starting with a suit that almost fits perfectly. Buying doesn't mean you shouldn't tailor, but you're only making minor changes to the tux that you're wearing in the store. Your chances of getting the perfect fit are much higher.
It's About Class - Keep it Classy- If you're buying a tux you wouldn't ask the manager where they keep their top hats and flashy-green 15 button vests would you? However, all to often when flipping through the look books at the rental shop grooms become distracted by the biggest and brightest and forget this isn't the high school prom. The best dressed gents on the red carpet keep it simple and classy. Grooms want to and should stand out, but that doesn't mean go over the top.
It's About Patience - Buying instead of renting is more work, but you'll walk out knowing you picked the right tux for you. You'll probably have to visit multiple locations, try on more pants and stress over more price tags, but it's making these tough decisions that will make the difference. When renting, often you walk into one location, flip through one book and settle on a decision. Yes its easier, but are you really sure about what you're getting? The decision to buy forces you to really consider your purchase. Putting this extra thought into you outfit will make a big difference on your wedding day.
Theory into Practice: Here are two great options with an even better price tag from Macy's:
