When should I start searching for Tuxedos rentals?
Brides and Grooms are advised to start searching for tuxedos at least a year before especially for the months of April, May, June and July. At this time the wedding date is booked. Styles will then need to be confirmed by 5 months before the wedding date.
How should I select the styles?
It is always best to focus on the groom’s outfit first and then complement the groomsmen to the groom’s attire. You can opt for a classic look, modern look or go for a casual look. It is recommended to coordinate the groom to the brides’ dress and the groomsmen to the bridesmaids or go completely neutral.
What does the tuxedo package include?
A tuxedo package includes the jacket, pants. Shirt, vest or cummerbund, tie or bow tie and suspenders. If a bow tie is chosen shirt studs are included. The groom also has cufflinks included in the package.

Some styles range from newborns to a size 60’’ chest and 65’’ waist. Patent shoes are also available for newborns to large shoe sizes of EU50 / US16 / UK15.

Measurements should be taken 3 to 4 months before always leaving the young boys for last. Appointments are always needed for every fitting.
