TUXES! vent- very long...
We rented from Men's Warehouse, b/c we wanted a place that was a “chain” b/c our GM are all over the place. So this worked out good. They each went to a location near them, but 1 had to call it in.
So on Tuesday, I called and was told that they were ALL in, and can go pick them up. Well, I stop what I was doing, go there to pick them all up, and turns out FH’s is the only one NOT there…
ARGH! I was SOOOOOOOO annoyed. The lady that answered the phone who told me they were there was an IDIOT when I was speaking to her, so I should have known! I was just annoyed! ![]()
SO, then we go last night, to p/u FH’s and the fit is WRONG. The neck was TOO small, and the pants TOO long. The pants were able to be hemmed up right then, but the neck was Still too small. The seamstress tried to move a button, and re-sewed it on, but it made a gap in the tie area. We were there for 1hour and ½ * 2 days before the wedding* trying to solve this. Finally after the 1 ½ hours, we just said, “IT’S FINE” and took it and left. I thought I was going to kill someone.

OK, so skip to TODAY (the DAY BEFORE the wedding)… We speak to his dad, and ask how HIS fits, he said FINE. (GOOD!)… so when we are speaking about the vest, his mom is like, “oh, it’s a nice gray”… HELLO??? His dad was supposed to be in BLACK!!! So I called Jillian the Manager again, and told her about ALL the problems we have! PLUS, ALL the shoes came in in the WRONG style (the rounded tip point, rather than the square.. .but since ALL 6 are the SAME, we are keeping them, rather than risk anything not arriving on-time).
She had to order the new vest, that will be picked up TOMORROW, the MORNIGN of the wedding, and hope for the best!
One of the GM’s tuxes was ALSO too big on the shoulders. so we are going to go back tonight WITH him before or after the Rehesal Dinner
to hopefully solve this.
ALSO- 3 of the GM's tuxes are HERE, and they have not been here to pick them up or try them on, and I am SOOOOOOOOOOOo nervous
TOO mUCH STRESS!!!!
Thanks for listneing to me vent!
