Feeling frustrated

Okay so a little venting here, my wedding is in 53 days. My FH and 2 sons have been fired for their tux that was only leaving the best man, 1 groomsman and ring bear left to be fitted. That was fine the guy at men’s wear house just told us to make sure they came in by the first week of September. Today I got a call from them saying that they are closing my location and where did I want to move my pick up location to? The closest location is over a hour away, no one is going to want to drive that far several times for a tux. Now I’m just like grrr I had this all figured out, when the store just opened back up at the beginning of July.

    I would check out online options. I've heard good things about Black Tux and Generation Tux. The best man in our wedding is getting married next year and he is having the groomsmen get their tuxes from Black Tux. Black Tux works with Nordstrom to do measurements, but you'd have to make sure the closest Nordstrom offers this service as not every Nordstrom does. They also have the option to try on at home before you buy. I can tell you our experience with Men's Warehouse was a nightmare and I would never recommend them to anyone.

    I'm so sorry. Covid has wreaked havoc on everyone's lives.

    That’s really frustrating! I’m sorry!
    I assume everyone will have to drive over to get fitted now, maybe you can carpool to get it done. I would definitely do one pick up for everything, which still puts you driving out there twice, but at least everyone isn’t driving multiple times individually.
    Our wedding is now in 32 days and the best man thinks maybe the suit he has fits, but he’s not sure and maybe he’ll get around to trying it on soon, maybe not 🤷‍♀️. I’m trying very hard to stay zen.

    We did find another wedding boutique that rents tuxedos as well it was just super frustrating that I thought I had all of this figured out and now with 53 days I have to do it all over again.

    Fortunately, tuxes are pretty simple. The guys that have already been measured should be able to provide their measurements to the wedding boutique. My brother's wedding was four months before mine and he was a bride's man in my wedding so my dad and brother just provided their measurements from his wedding to Men's Warehouse because the closest Men's Warehouse to them was 1.5 hours from where they live.

    The one we are using closed down as well but luckily ours isn't that far away. Go get them fitted at any tailor and use those measurements!
