Jos. A Bank

So– the guys here are super nice. They got us the right suit/​tux and vests! But — my 2 year old who was measured and had his tux ordered to rent received his tux today, 2 days before my wedding with all the wrong sizes. The claimed these were the smallest sizes they had that I should see a tailor to get it pinned. I was not happy. Due to all of this we returned the tux. They knew there smallest sizes and instead of telling us they sent us the wrong sizes and now we had to hurry out and find a back up. Thank goodness my child is cute because he won’t be matching daddy and I’m quite upset.

Jos. A. Bank might be a national chain, but this particular location served us well for our wedding.
My husband and I went in looking for groom/​groomsmen attire, but we almost left empty-​handed. Let me explain: We were married outside on a private farm with our reception held in a converted barn. Although our theme was rustic elegance, it wasn’t the place for a classic tuxedo. And to be honest, even if our venue had been something else entirely, we likely wouldn’t have gone for tuxes. However, you can’t rent suits and we thought asking the groomsmen to purchase a suit would be way more expensive than asking them to rent a tux. So we went into Jos. A. Bank hoping to find a tux that looked like a suit. Well after thumbing through the rental book, we were not impressed with what we saw and decided we’d need to take a different approach to the male wedding attire.
We were almost out the door when the sales associate suggested we look at suits instead. He quickly followed up his suggestion with the assurance that some of their suits are actually cheaper than a tux rental. We still weren’t totally sold, but we were all the way out in Midlo and we didn’t have a great Plan B so we decided to take a look. The sales associate was an older gentleman, extremely knowledgeable about the suiting and not at all pushy. This last part is probably why we ended up staying to look at suits — neither my husband nor I like to feel pressured when shopping, and we felt just the right balance of freedom to explore the racks while also receiving guidance from the expert. We ended up finding the perfect suit that, indeed, was slightly cheaper than the cost of a tux rental.
The process of ordering the suits was super easy and the in-​house alterations for my husband resulted in a suit that fit like a glove. The guys all looked dashing on the wedding day, and I’m happy to report that my not-​a-​fan-​of-​shopping husband was pleased with the entire experience.
