A Few Men's Wearhouse ?'s... really confused

[tiggersam00]

Hi there, just wanted to see if anyone has any guidance on how and what I need to do to get tuxes?

I bought my dress at Davids Bridal so DF gets a free tux rental and the GM's get $30 off each... so I need some help and advice from you lovely ladies!

How did you start the process, calling MW in Orlando and speaking to someone, or going to a local MW store? Any specific contact who is used to doing DFTW stuff?

Now I know I have read that the MW in Orlando can pick up and drop off your tuxes at the Hotel... is this true or still accurate?

Also, does anyone have an idea of how mucha tux costs to rent?

As you can tell I have a billion questions so any help would be much appriciated TIA

I can't answer all of your questions, but I can answer some. I also bought my dress and bridesmaid dresses at David's. Your DF will only get his tux free if you have 5 people renting tuxes. Unfortunately, I'm not having five people rent so we're going to have to pay for his rental.

To start the process of renting, you can go to any MW and they should be able to set you up on getting the rental process set up. My father in law to be lives half way across the country and I was able to set it up so that he can go to go to a MW where he lives to be fitted and have it delivered to a store here.

I have no idea about getting the tuxes delivered to the resort, but I'm sure someone who reads these boards does.

How much a rental cost depends on which tux you pick out. When you go to pick out the tux they'll have a book for you to look through. My experience was the most expensive tuxes were in the front of the book and the cheaper ones in the back; therefore, you should definitely look through the whole book before you set your heart on a certain style. DF's tux is going to cost us about $109 for an evening in December, and I went with a cheaper style (trying to save money).

When you go, they'll be able to pull up your information from David's in their system; therefore, if you picked out a certain color (maybe for bridesmaids) they'll have the exact color information so you won't have to bring that stuff with you.

When I went to set up my rentals I was charged a $40 deposit. It basically holds your information and date. The $40 that you put down will be taken off the cost of a tux though so the money isn't gone forever.

We went to our local MW store and set up an account with them. We told them that the wedding would be in Orlando (specifically Disney) so they made sure to specify that on the account. We choose the tux styles, colors, etc. We also gave them the names of the GM's that would be renting. They then provided us with an account number. Most of our GM's lived elsewhere so when getting fitted at their local MW they made sure to tell the salesperson the account number. It was really easy; everything was tied to our master account. After a few weeks, I received a phone call from a MW representative in Orlando who's worked with Disney Brides (I can't remember her name now). She contacted me several times throughout the process to notify me of who had/hadn't been measured yet.

Now I know I have read that the MW in Orlando can pick up and drop off your tuxes at the Hotel... is this true or still accurate?

Through our Orlando rep, we set up the pick-up/drop off at my DH's hotel. They drop off the tuxes a few days (I think it was 3 days) before the wedding and then pick them up the day after. My DH and his GM's didn't arrive until two days before the wedding so we just had the hotel hold the tuxes in their bell closet. If anyone needs extra alterations (or the order is wrong) then its important to know that MW will not pick up/drop off tuxes after 4pm two days before the wedding. If you need to exchange anything after 4pm two days before the event, then you'll need to drive over to their facility (which is not that far).

Also, does anyone have an idea of how mucha tux costs to rent?

Our tuxes where about $160 (included tux, shirt, shoes, ties, vests, socks, etc). They range anywhere from $120 - up.

We worked with the Winter Garden MW location. They are great they deliver and pick up to your resort that you tell them. They told us they do alot of Disney weddings out of this location.
