Tux Rental

[lazarru]

I see a number of people mention Tux rental, but I've not see where from and the cost. Is this something you setup on the ship? What is the cost?

They work with DCL. Worked out great for me! Didn't have to pack it. Just took my own socks!

We also did if via the DCL. Can't say enough good things about them.

My DH has rented from cruiselineformalwear.com for our last two cruises and it was great. Everything was in our room when we arrived and it all fit perfectly! And, as Hercules10 says, we didn't have to pack it!

Hi All
On our first cruise we checked into rental and found that with not too much more money I was able to buy a tux on sale at S&K mensware. Believe it or not I have used it t3 times since the cruise.. You can also check out thetuxxman on e-bay. I bought a mickey vest to wear under the tux and it looks great.. While some people say why buy as I may never use it again, you just never know and hey I get free alterarions from S&K.Look spiffy at that next wedding or concert at the theater and it will pay for itself. JMHO

I agree with jrp. DH bought one for under $100. He has used it twice since. Paid for itself already! He will take it on our next cruise as well.

I think the cost was about $85 if you want extra vests and stuff then that is more.

I do agree with the buying also. The ones we rented were for my teen-age sons, who are not yet finished growing. My DH bought his tux 25 years ago, paying about $160. I can't tell you how much wear he's gotten out of it on about 7 cruises.

Has anyone rented a tux for DS's? My DS will be 4 on our cruise this summer...haven't decided yet if we're going to do tuxes for formal night for DH and DS, but if we do, I was wondering what experiences anyone else has had renting a tux for a child through cruiseline formal.

I bought my DH a tux last year on Ebay for $40.00 total (including shipping). It fit him perfect! There was no alterations needed. The only other thing he needed to get was a shirt.
