I posted this on '07, but thought I'd ask some other brides who may have experience with them.
Can anyone tell me about renting tuxes from them? I've seen some reviews and I just want to make 100% sure we're making the right decision.
We have Ushers in Boston, NJ and FL so we wanted to go to a chain so the guys can get it by them and make sure the tux fits b4 the wedding.
Thanks Ladies!

Re: Mens Wearhouse
my DH was a GM in a wedding that used them and everything seemed to go well. The wedding was in FL and we ordered it in NY. He picked the tux up in FL. He did comment that it wasn't as good as an experience or quality as we had for our wedding. (we used tuxedo park - but it was more expensive).

We used them and had no problems. We went with a Kenneth Cole wool tux and it came to $99/each (they have a $20 off coupon on their website). DH's was free.
It was very convenient for everyone and I would definitely recommend it!

Re: Mens Wearhouse
I'm about to post my full review of my wedding in a couple of days, but we were happy with them overall. I had groomsmen all over the east coast and there were no problems with them picking up in different locations, etc. Definitely check out their website for coupons that you can attach to your whole group. The personalized service is not as good as in local places but with our big group being spread out ...it was our best option!
Good luck!

Re: Mens Wearhouse
THe biggest problem we found with Mens Warehouse and the reason we decided not to go with them is that the majority of stores do not carry the tuxes in the shops. You are actually picking out the tuxes trough a catalog. THey actually have a large warehouse in Texas where they keep all the tuxes and they ship them out to the specific stores for specific events. I'm not a big fan or ordering stuff without seeing it in person or being able to touch the fabrics, especially for a big day like this. FH was also uncomfortable with ordering a tux he never tried on. HTH

I was thinking the same thing, but they had the Calvin Klein tux in so I was able to see it.

YEah, Unfortunately we are doing tails and FH really want to try the different tailcoats to find the best fit. Good luck though!!

Re: Mens Wearhouse
FH did have a problem with the men's wearhouse. He was in his friends wedding and rented tuxedos from them and they want them back the very next day. The wedding was in puerto rico! They ended up charging him a lot of money because he returned it 2 days after the event and they were taking no mercy.

We used them because one of the GM was in Chicago, 3 in upstate, DH in NYC area, and 2 others in LI. Everyone's tux was fine and their service was great.
