I think the standard for ordering the tuxes is about 3-4 months before the big day. Nine months seems a lil too far in advance.

mine isn't doing this until around march.

FH is a Gm in his friend's wedding next month and they still haven't picked out tuxes

Yep. see thats what I thought too,, I told him to just go & look, ya know on styles & colors he may want , but i thought 9 months in advance was a lil junpin the gun too,

FI and I went looking a few weeks ago. They told us to order them by March/April for a July wedding.

FH is in a wedding on 8/26 and he just went to get fitted for the tux. I believe the groom picked out what he wanted like 2 months before the wedding.

Thanks for posting this.... I was thinking this the other day ~ I want to go look with FH before hand and pick a place to go...but I was unsure when they actually had to order them!

Re: Grooms Tux's

According to timelines as far as months go, they say 9 months, but I also think thats too far in advance, Same goes for BM's dresses too! I think Darren is just looking now, as far as styles, because we have the colors pegged already. Although it wouldn't be a bad idea for the guys to try on different styles now. This way the groom can have an idea of what looks right on everyone. Thats JMO though.

Re: Grooms Tux's

FH and crew are going next Saturday, only b/c then they can all have them done and chosen. There was also a price grouping, so it helped. The man who helped us said that he's only going to take names, sizes, and a deposit and the guys should come back in about 2 weeks for a fitting, just to make sure there aren't any major changes needed.
Mot of the guys including FH are big guys. FH is 6'7' and 340lbs. and there are 4 more that are the same build just a little shorter, so I thought it would easier incase there was any special ordering needed.
