Who had the best price? (NOT men's warehouse or jos a banks)
And are there any other options for out of town groomsmen??

I just recently had this question as well! Apparently a bunch of the formalwear places on LI will accommodate out of town groomsmen as well (i.e. Forestos and Lake Shore Formals are 2 recommendations I've gotten on here). The guys will just have to be measured elsewhere and then they give in their measurements. I'm not sure about pricing though.

They said they do alterations 6 to 8 weeks before. But I am going to use sals in Massapequa. The was great abs made me feel so much better. He said the guys need to come in by the end of the month! And alterations can be done the day of the wedding if needed for the out of towns groomsmen bc they have stock inhouse in everything!! So much happier!!
