    I need help! :)

    Over the weekend, my FI and I went to the Men's Wearhouse to see what suits were avaible for rent.  We were surprised to discover, they only rent out Tuxedos.  My FI is wearing a suit and we want our groomens to wear matching suits. (To look nice for photos!) But instead of buying suits, we wanted to rent suits.  Is this even possible?  Or am I looking at suit shopping on Black Friday this year?

     

    Thanks, Bees! :)

    We ran into the same dilemma!  But MW does offer one suit for rent, it's a black Ralph Lauren, I believe.  I think we're going to go with it.  I was surprised to hear that pretty much no compaines in my area rent suits.  You just have to buy them :(

    I don't know if you ladies have an Al's Formal Wear in your area or not, but if you do, I have a $300 discount card towards the rental of men's tux or suits (for a party of 7 or more) that I will not be using. If either of you could use it, let me know and I'll give it to you.

    Most of the tuxes that those places actually rent are more like suits.  You should look into them.

    Yeah you should look at the pictures, because they are more like suits than tuxes. They call them tuxes, but alot of them look like regular suits.

    Thanks, bees!  I found a place that rents suits: Eli Thomas.

    @hmaxwell77:  You are so thoughtful!  Thanks for the offer, but I don't think there is Al's Formal wear in my area.  BUT THANKS FOR OFFERING :)
