There are a number of places that offer tuxedo rental. Some examples include:
- Lapel.com
- Men's Warehouse
- Jos A. Banks
- Savvi Formalware
Most places will offer a group discount, (i.e. if you were renting for a wedding party).
Additionally, you can save some money by taking advantage of seasonal sales, such as prom, and around the holiday season.
At first, it may seem cheaper to buy instead of rent, but if you rent, they will arrange for all of the alterations at no additional cost.

just buy one...
slim fit tuxes, or modern tuxes are generally more expensive. Calvin Klein and Hugo boss make really nice ones...
here's what i did...
I've rented 3 tuxes in the past 2 years for a total of $350...i was tired of paying that for a polyester tux that didn't fit that well.
i went to Men's Warehouse and bought their least expensive wool tuxedo jacket...then i bought a pair of flat front wool tuxedo pants. I took the two to the tailor and had it fit and altered exactly the way i wanted it...with a more slim and modern look.
total after alterations $250. i decided to buy nice shoes that were 50% off for $80, but you can get less expensive tux shoes for $30.
grand total $330...
Ill have this tux for at least the next ten years...which if i continue with needing at least 2 tuxes every year that would be over $2000 for the 10 years.
if i had bought a Calvin or Hugo it would have been well over $500 for everything. Now i have a sweet tux that looks just like the modern slim fit designer brands...for a fraction of the price.

Should you go to a tuxedo sale when planning your wedding?
You should go to a tuxedo sale if you want to purchase a tuxedo. Most people who need a tux would rather rent one, because they probably won't wear it again.
Can you rent just the vest of a tuxedo from a place such as mens wearhouse?
Absolutely!!! Most tuxedo rental stores will not allow the rental of individual components that make up a tuxedo, i.e., shirt, tie, vest, etc. They see it as not worth their time or effort and choose not to "fool" with such things. Mens Wearhouse does not see it this way. Apparently, it's all in how you look at it - is the glass half empty or is it half full? My son needed just a vest and tie as he was able to wear my tux and they treated him as though he were renting full tuxedo outfits for a wedding. The service was great, the items were top notch and was very inexpensive.
Finding Low Cost Tuxedo Rentals?
Tuxedos are the top of the pyramid for men's fashion. Men can simply not dress any fancier than if they choose to wear a tuxedo to a wedding, dance or professional event. However, most tuxedos can cost hundreds if not thousands of dollars. Men typically wear a tuxedo only a few dozen times throughout their entire lives. The lack of use is one of the many reasons why it makes sense to for tuxedo rentals at the lowest possible cost. Most men will be given the name of a store when they need to rent a tuxedo. However, for men that do not like the store they are recommended to or cannot get a tuxedo in the price range that they need, there are a number of other options available. Men can have their tuxedo rentals processed online, rent a tuxedo from a store that has special promotions or rent their tuxedo from a store that is locally owned and operated Many men want their lives to be as easy as possible when renting their tuxedo. When a man rents a tuxedo, keeping it easy can cost him a large amount of money if he is not paying close attention. That is why a man should look at how much he will have to pay if he damages the tuxedo, where he is renting the tuxedo from and other factors. While most men may choose to go to their local tuxedo shop, it may not offer the best price or service. There are a number of large chains that rent tuxedos from their retail outlets. Some of these chains including Men's Warehouse handle the entire rental process just like a local store. However, should you need to rent the tuxedo and return it, you can do so at any location across the United States. You do not have to return to the same outlet you rented it from. Best of all, many of these national companies offer free shipping to your door as well as free return shipping. This makes the entire process quick and easy for users as well as for the companies who own the tuxedo rentals.
What's a good price for a tuxedo rental?
Tuxedo rental prices very widely depending on what kind of tuxedo you would ilke to rent. A standard tuxedo (like for a wedding) can be rented for around $40 plus deposit. Shop around to find the best price. Usually for a men's tuxedo a good price would be $150.00. However, some places can offer them as low as $99.00 but I am sure they are older styles.
