Custom Tux help!

Brittany, on May 13, 2019 at 11:20 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 8
I need help finding a dark red (read “apple” or “wine” red) tux for my fiancé. We live in the Baton Rouge area. My fiancé is a larger man normally wears about a 4x. I was hoping an online search would be better help, but it’s lead to hours of me scrolling with no results. This was his only request for the wedding, and I’m trying to make it happen for him. Can anybody offer any help?

    Could you do a custom order?

    My FH is having his costume made. He is a body builder and there was no way a rental would work for his body type. I’m from NJ and he spent about 2,000 on tux and two custom shirts. He spent more than I did on my dress but it meant a lot for him to have a tux that actually fit him and bonus he will probably wear it again to other weddings. If you can find a local tux/ suit maker and it fits your budget I would go for it. I figured I wouldn’t want to wear a wedding dress that was rented and did not fit me properly so he doesn’t either.

    I could do a custom order, but didn’t want to pay an extravagant amount. But at this point, I very well may have to do so. 😕

    I don't know of they would, but do you have a DXL around you? It's a big and tall store for mens formalwear. Maybe they would have something?

    No, not at all. I’m just gonna have to take him to a custom tux shop, and do it that way. You figure since it’s 2019, there would be more options for larger sizes. 😩

    I'm so sorry that you are having so much trouble with this! It's a great idea to get it custom made, then at least you know it will fit perfectly and be exactly what you want 😊
