Picked out the tuxes today

Well another big thing off the list. My fiance, my son and I went to VIP Formals in Syosset today and were in and out in about 35 minutes. My fiance knew what he wanted so it was pretty easy. The price wasn't bad either and the person who took care of us very knowledgable and patient. They are even going to have the cutaway sent to them this week, because they didn't have one in my fiance's size that he could try on to make sure it fit correctly. They wanted to be sure he was happy. And on top of that they are going to take care of cleaning, boxing and preserving my dress. So far so good and only 2 months and 2 days to go!!!

Congrats again Wendy!! :)One thing down, 100 more to go?? (Just kidding!)

Thanks

Lots more to go but the list gets smaller as things get done. Favors are the next big thing and that will probably be done next week. Now that I don't have that much time left it is just flying by!! Believe me you will see.

Jenny B....

We're planning to go to Town & Country in 2 weeks! How's their selection and service? Can you also let me know what the price range is? We need 6 tuxes including groom.

Just outta curiosity, why'd you choose a tux shop in Wantagh? :) Did you check any other places?

By the way...we're seeing Ed Aug. 7th for pics!!

Thanks!!

Hey Kathi
We picked them cause my dad who lives on LI used them before and knew the guy. PLus they do a lot of the Jets (the groom at 6'2' is the smallest one to be fitted...my brother is 6'6' and wears a size 17 shoe!!!!)
They are getting their rentals at $150 (6guys including groom) which I hear is pretty competative. It may go down even more since my dad, stepdad and ushers are also planning to go at a later date
Selection seemed pretty ok...but call them 1st and they can order what u want in for him to try on....they also have a shop in East Meadow
