    When I first met Aldo and saw his products, I knew this would be the right place to find tuxes. My husband, who knew Aldo outside of his company, always planned to get his tuxedo here. Aldo made the process of finding the right look very easy. His storefront may look small, but it is filled with many great products. He knows his stock very well and is very accurate when estimating what size an individual will need before even measuring them! He is very friendly and easygoing. Aldo’s House of Formals has great flexibility in their hours and will come in to meet with you at a time that works with your schedule. The location of the store is also in a pretty central spot making it easy for people to get to no matter what area of the state they are traveling from. Aldo’s has everything the groom and his groomsmen will need for the wedding day from the tux to the tie to the socks to the shoes. They even carry children’s sizes for your ring bearer! If you are looking for high quality products at a reasonable price and want to work with a great guy, consider Aldo’s House of Formals.

    Anthony's House of Formals has quality suits for an amazing price. My husband and his groomsmen looked picture perfect in their suits. The owner Aldo is very knowledgeable and down to earth. He was very helpful in during the whole process. I would definitely recommend his store to anyone looking for high quality suites. Thank you Aldo for making our special day a success!

    Best Selection Around!

    I cannot say enough great things about Anthony’s House of Formals. My husband and I got married in August of 2017 and got the groom/groomsmen suits and father of the bride/groom suits here. Aldo was really easy to work with and helped us choose the best suits to fit the entire color scheme of the wedding. Aldo had a great selection of suits to choose from, and the selection was different from your larger retail vendors. I was looking for a more unique blue color suit (not just your normal Navy). We had a large bridal party and most groomsmen lived out of state. I was a little concerned that the fit would be off since Aldo couldn’t measure everyone in person. Aldo came prepared and had extra sizes in case measurements were off. Everything looked amazing the day of! Our guests are still commenting about how amazing the groom/groomsmen look in their suits over a year after our wedding!

He personally works with each of his clients to ensure their happiness, comfort and vision. I would highly highly recommend Aldo's House of Formals to anyone looking for that perfect attire for everyday or their special occasion.

    I worked with Aldo and Ashle for our 10/12 wedding. The quality and customer service we received was amazing. My groom and all the groomsmen looked great. I'm glad they suggested and we went with the slimmer fit tux's I was happy with everything every step of the way. The amount of options that we had was fantastic it was nice to be able to pick out something other than the basic tux from the tie to the shoes everything was perfect! Thank you both again!!

    Great personal service. Needed Father of Bride suit. They treated me as though I was renting suits for the entire wedding party and not just one suit. Would highly recommend.

    We worked with Aldo and Anthony's House of Formals for the suits for our August wedding. We had been referred to Aldo by friend and colleague and I am so happy that we made the decision to work with him and his team. When we first met with Aldo we had already decided on grey tuxedos, but as time went on, we knew that this didn't fit the aesthetic of the wedding, nor did it fit the personality of the groom. We went back to Aldo with our change and he was fabulous. He took the time to work through the changes and find the suit that would be the best choice for the groom. He helped with all of the accessories and was open and honest during fittings to ensure that everyone was looking their absolute best. I thought that this was particularly important because it showed that they listened when both the groom and I expressed our concern for ill fitting rentals that we had seen (or experienced) in the past from other vendors. The day before the wedding, we needed to get a different size vest for one of the suits. Aldo was on top of it and had a new vest to us by the afternoon. They were friendly, attentive, patient, and flexible but most importantly, they were knowledgeable and helped us make the right choice. The men looked fantastic at the wedding and I would gladly use Anthony's House of Formals again.

    We went with Anthony's House of Formals for the tuxedos! We went to a Michael Kors trunk show and Ashlee walked the groom through every tuxedo and really listened to what he was looking for. Aldo did an amazing job of measuring everyone and making sure everyone looked their best! We even changed the colors for the dads and he was right on top of that with changing the order and even giving his professional opinion when needed. He is just so great to work with and really made everything so enjoyable! He always greets you with a smile and Anthony's is just a great place. I would definitely recommend them!

    Anthony's House of Formals in East Providence is a shoppe that is on top of their game. My groom and groomsmen looked very sharp on my wedding day. The color of the vest and ties matched perfect with my bridesmaid dresses. My husband really liked the charcoal grey tuxes he felt like it was made for him, the best part was that the fittings were fast and easy and everything fit great, Mike was very helpful through the process. Thank you Anthony's House of Formals for making it a very special day for us.

    I can not say enough amazing things about Anthony's. I have referred just about everyone I know who is getting married (or even those who aren't and need formal wear for a black tie event) to use them over Men's Warehouse or any other tuxedo place. Aldo and Ashley were so easy to deal with. They guided us in the right direction and helped picked out what we wanted (because both me and my fiance are very indecisive and had no idea what to pick out). We had a large, boisterous cast of characters come in and get measured as well that same day. Aldo and Ashley were so patient and kind. They had us in stitches laughing too. Not only was it a pleasant experience during the fitting, it was so easy to pick up and drop off. They were amazing with our out of town guys who sent in their measurements. The groomsmen looked so good in what we picked out. Everything fit perfectly and the guys looked so handsome! I highly recommend using Anthony's just for the experience alone!

    Sharp-Dressed Men! I purchased my wedding gown at Helene's Bridal (see review) located upstairs from Anthony's House of Formals (East Providence location). I was contacted by the store because they were having a promotion for any brides who purchased their dresses from Helene's that same year. The price was wonderful, and the service was even better. We worked with Mike, and he patiently took the time to help us choose the right tuxes, shirts, and shoes. As the time came closer, we were contacted, and the men went to be measured and tried on the tuxes. Mike and staff diligently checked to be sure the tuxes had the best possible fit. Everyone at Anthony's was great at communicating and even made separate phone calls to all the men for the final pick-up day. Again, Mike and staff double-checked everything and made some last-minute adjustments to ensure the finest look. It truly was a pleasure working with Anthony's and Helene's!

    Could not have had a better experience, the staff was excellent and Aldo who i suspect was the owner was a tremendous help. If your looking to add a unique spin on your fiances attire, then this is the place.

    This has to be hands down the best formalwear store in Rhode Island. My girl bought her wedding gown above this place and kept telling me to try out these guys which were located below the bridal store. These guys not only knew what i was looking for, but they knew what they were talking about. Menswarehouse can not even come close to what these guys have to offer. I work with people everyday and customer service is key in my business and this belief is felt here too. Thanks Anthony's

    I met Aldo, the owner, at a bridal show about a year before my wedding. (I should also include that I am incredibly picky about wedding suits and how they should fit; it is non-negotiable that the suit be well-tailored to all the men on the wedding day). Aldo was so laid back and easy to talk to, immediately understood my vision and was totally on the same page about well-fitting suits! Talking to Aldo was so different from talking to other tuxedo rental vendors because he listened to what I said and offered suggestions based on what I described. He makes you feel comfortable in the store and makes the measurements totally simple and painless, in addition to doing all alterations within minutes right in-house. The suits looked absolutely flawless, fit everyone perfectly, and looked amazing on all the guys on our wedding day!!

    High End Sharp Looking Tux - Slightly Disappointed with Overall Fit

    Overall, the men looked handsome in their tux on our wedding day. However, for the price of the Tux, we expected them to fit perfectly. Our initial experience was great. The owner was very friendly and seemed knowledgeable. We were referred by a friend of ours who used Aldo’s services before and had no complaints. A day or two prior to the wedding, all the men went to Aldo’s to pick up / try on their tux. At that time, Aldo fixed anything that needed to be fixed or asked to come back later to pick up the correct size. However, on the wedding date, many of the Tux did not fit properly. It seemed as if most of the shirts were too long, or their Tux jackets were too short. Also, many of their pants seemed on the shorter end. The biggest issue was the best man being “Plus” size. It was heartbreaking to see him struggle on the wedding day to button his white shirt. All the black buttons kept popping off and he could not button his tux jacket closed. I have no idea how Aldo let him leave the store with that Tux or why he did not decline us up front if he did not have a Tux big enough.
