So.. My husband and I had a DFTW last May- we did pay and did the MK bridal shoot. Well under the circumstances it did not turn out so well. Long story short- I complained and we ended up getting a reshoot which is this May 27th (3 weeks). A few months ago we kinda decided that we didn't want to do the shoot again, well...carless me forgot to contact Disney photography and cancel so 2 weeks ago we received an email with the confirmation. So, again last minute we changed our minds and decided just to do it so we will now be going to do the shoot and just spend out year anniversary in Disney.

My dilemma is obviously we had not been planning on doing it so we have had no planning. The 2 biggest issues that I am hoping someone can help me with or give me advise with are:

1. Tux rental- will the shoot being just 3 weeks out I am thinking we do not have enough time to rent through Mens Warehouse, does anyone know? I mean, I would hate to just have my husband throw on one of his suits for our shoot so I am not sure what we should do here, maybe if we should just go buy a tux? But I do not think he would ever wear it again so that may be a waste?

2. Hair and makeup- I am hoping that Beaute Speciale will have an opening, I am reaching out to them today, If for some reason they do not, does anyone have any recommendations?
 
I'd call Men's Warehouse and any other tux rental place and see what they can do for you. It is prom season so that might be issues. But the sooner you call the better.

My wife used Beaute Speciale for our Portrait Session but used LeJeune for the wedding the day before.
 
You could also call Carolyn Allen's for a tux—they deliver to the Disney resorts: 407-238-2722. I always hire Patricia LeJeune for hair and makeup. Some others on Disney's preferred list are About Face, Lisa's Magical Weddings, and On Site Beauty.
 
We didn't want the cost of a second time tux rental (it cost us about $250 with Carolyn Allen's the first time) so my DH just wore a super nice black suit that he already had for the MK shoot. I don't think you can really tell in most of the pictures.
 

My girlfriend daughter had this happen at the MK shoot, it had been raining and was just not great for what they paid for so they got a re-shoot, and they decided not to do the wedding attire, they are really laid back, so they decided on something more them.. she wore a really cute sundress white and coral, and he wore Dockers style pants and white shirt. Which they had worn to dinner at V & A one night on their Mickeymoon. They brought there wedding ears for some of the shots. They both looked so happy and relax in the pictures.

I just though I might suggest this with the additional cost you and stress this might be a option for you.
