After 5. Are you looking to rent one? Once you go in once you can just call them from that point on once they have your measurements.

I go with a Michael Kors Tux.

I owned a nice Ralph Lauren Tux years ago. Lost it in the divorce b/c it was in my winter closet I forgot to take in my hasty departure.

Well that sucks. I thought about getting one because I wear one at least once a year, but then if I rent I can change the style, etc.

I think I've worn one 4-5 times in my life and most of those were in weddings that had to match the other groomsmen.

With the shoes it will be about $230 to rent, without shoes I think its about $200. But if you want something nicer or something in a lower price range they have them. In my experience they are pretty quick too.

I'm not very fancy. I think I've worn a suit maybe twice in the past decade, both as a pallbearer.

That's way too much for a BR Mardi Gras ball lol. I'm sure they'll have 'generics' though.
