Generation Tux for Groomsmen Online: How It Works

If you've heard of the Wedding Shoppe, you know that we offer wedding dresses, bridesmaid dresses, groom/groomsmen rentals, and more! We're a one-stop-shop for all things wedding attire. Though we have countless wedding attire outfits to choose from in-store - including Generation Tux suits - we understand that visits to the store are not always possible. Whether you live out of town or prefer the convenience of online shopping, we want to provide you with a highly respected choice when it comes to groomsmen rentals. Here are some perks to expect when you choose to rent online.

Online Groomsmen Rentals Made Easy

We knew our top menswear choice would need to excel not only at providing the best groomsmen attire, but offer amazing service in the online space as well. Not only does Generation Tux offer menswear rentals we're proud to carry in-store, but their online services are impossible to beat!

When it comes to renting online, the process is simple! Rather than trying to take your own measurements, the only sizing info needed is your height, weight, and then answer a few simple questions. There is a 100% fit guarantee, so if it isn't the perfect size, a new suit will be sent to you! The groom and groomsmen will receive their attire 14 days ahead of the wedding - more than enough time to make sure the look is ideal!

Renting through Generation Tux online makes it SO easy to keep track of your groomsmen's orders! Simply build your desired look, invite your guys to place their order, and view the order progress from your account. You'll be able to see where everyone is at in the ordering process whenever you want - there'll be no last minute forgotten order surprises!

FREE At-Home Try On for the Couple!

A common downside to renting online is that you don't get to try on your attire ahead of ordering. With Generation Tux, that is not the case! Not only can you try on your desired suit or tux before you rent, but the wedding couple can do so for free! On top of the free try on, you can also choose 5 free fabric swatches to determine your favorite wedding colors. Find which suit/tuxedo, colors, and accessories best fit your vision!

Find Groomsmen Accessories that Match the Bridesmaids!

After being in the wedding space for decades, we understand the struggle of finding ties that coordinate with bridesmaid dresses. Luckily for you - Generation Tux carries an endless assortment of ties, bowties, and pocket squares to coordinate with almost any wedding color. Generation Tux's large online accessory selection makes shopping for men's attire so much easier. Best of all, these menswear accessories match especially well with Kennedy Blue, our most popular bridesmaid dress line! To get started, check out the selection of color swatches here!

Get the Groom's Suit Rental for Free

Not only can you receive free swatches and try ons with Generation Tux, but the groom is eligible for free attire! To qualify for a free rental is simple - just have 5 or more people in your party to rent a suit or tuxedo from Generation Tux. Want to keep your suit? Have 7 or more guys rent, and you can keep it for good! Best of all, rentals are not limited to groomsmen. So, anyone from fathers to ring bearers count towards your number!
