Looking for some advice
I re-posted this from the Brides helping brides section.....Could use some opinions
Kinda long, I'm sorry........
We went to Men's Warehouse last night for measurements. I am aware and explained that I knew that we have PLENTY of time, but we have an issue with my brother who is in the military. He is home on an 18 day leave from his tour in Iraq. He's leaving on Tuesday and will not even be returning to the States until sometime between February and April of next year. Since he is stationed in North Carolina, there is a possibility he may not be back to NY until the night before the wedding. While he was home I needed to have his measurements taken so that we can order and pick up his tux for him. I explained all of this to the girl yet all she kept saying to me was, but you have plenty of time. I said we weren't ready to pick out or order tuxes, but planned on getting them through Men's Warehouse and wanted my brother's measurements on file. I offered to give any information and/or deposits needed. After about 5 minutes of confusion and a more senior salesman being called over, the girl finally took the measurements. She told me she didn't want to keep the info or enter it into their computer since it was so far away and was afraid they would lose them .![]()

She wrote them down on a piece of paper and gave them to me.
The problem is now I have a bad taste in my mouth about using them for the tuxes. The reason we chose them in the first place is because the BM and 2 other GM live in the city. We are in Suffolk. We figured Men's warehouse would be easier and more convenient for everyone. Has anyone else had problems with them? Can anyone suggest someplace else to use? Or do you think I am just over reacting………….
TIA!
