Ringbearers' outfits

I have two ringbearers - 2 and 4 years old. I don't know what kind of outfit to put them in.

What is everyone doing for ringbearers' outfits? Can you get a little tux from the same place the groom and groomsmen are getting their tuxes?

TIA!

Our RB was about 20 months when we got married and had to buy the tux from the same place the guys got theirs. I don't think any places rent them that little. The tux for the 4 year old you might be able to rent. (You might be able to rent the 2 year old if he is bigger than 'average')

i'm not having a ring bearer... but my friend is getting married in august and shes having two... she went to the children's place and bought them little black suits- on sale for like $30
probably cheaper than a tux, and a little more practical ( they're more likely to wear a suit again to church or something)
just an idea good luck!

My RB was 5 and we rented him a tux. Honestly, to me it was a waste of money. They charged the same price for the little one as they did for the rest of the guys and he was in it for about an hour before the shirt was untucked, sneakers put on and mud was on the knees.

Our RB got a tux just like the rest of the guys. He is 4 and was so cute. He looked like a Mini-me of the ushers.

Re: Ringbearers' outfits

thanks everyone! i'll discuss these options with my cousin, since the ringbearers are her sons, and see what she wants to do. your responses have been really helpful.

This is what I did. The older boy wore a tux and the little one wore an eton suit.

There is a place on 57th street between 2nd and 3rd called Wee Me that sells them for $40! I think they carry them all the way up to size 16.

Those little boys are simply precious.

Thanks so much. They are my cousins. We had to bribe the little one with the chocolate fountain to walk down the aisle and say here comes the bride.

They're so adorable, especially the smaller one.

Re: Ringbearers' outfits

My ringbearer is going to wear a tux...he will be 7 at the time of the wedding. For smaller sizes I would call the tux place and see what they can do....if not I would say just a plain suit would probably be fine.
