I'll second the dissapointment with Moores.

Only plus out of the deal was at the time they had a promo for the groom that with 5 or more tux rentals you either got the groom's tux rental free, or the groom got $300 towards a suit purchase. Since the tux rental was $150, and I wear the odd suit here or there, I went with the suit. Used it on a sale day and got an originally $550 suit for $50. Not too shabby.

But the tux rental process was extremely disorganized (doesn't help that 95% of the employees are highschool students who don't know anything about tailoring, and the manager was a jackass).

I've also had bad experience for a buddy's wedding at TipTop. All the orders had at least 1 item that was the wrong size; not measured wrong, they actually sent an item that was a different size than on the order. Which is a huge pain in the ass when you're picking them up 2 days before the wedding and the response is "we don't have time to fix it".

Anyway... I'll second going to one of the bridal shops. I got my grad tux at... uh... the one by Costco in the south... forget what its called. They were good to work with and were reasonably priced. Didn't go there for the wedding because they were more expensive, but in the end it probably would have been worth it.
