Tuxedos vs. Suits. 

 What's the difference?  It's all about the satin.  Traditionally tuxedos have full satin lapels, satin button covers and satin stripes on the pants.  Can I rent a suit instead of a tuxedo for a wedding?  With today's changing style/fit trends, tuxedos are beginning to look more like suits and less like tuxes such as narrower lapels with less satin, pants without satin stripes, lighter fabrics and a slimmer more modern fit and look.  As to whether or not you should rent a tuxedo or a suit for a wedding, it really depends on the setting.  If you are going for a formal or semi-formal wedding, you will definitely want to do a classic tux or a more modern tux.  If you have a destination wedding or a casual wedding, then suits are certainly acceptable.  

Shown here are "brother" looks: the  Perry Ellis Madison Tuxedo and the Perry Ellis Madison Suit.  Both are great rental options!

A new face at Premiere....sort of

Meet Joel. He's our new Tuxedo Facilitator! Under the tutelage of Jim DuBois and our own formalwear maven, Laura, he's currently learning everything he needs to know to make your wedding day run smoothly and look wedding album worthy! And while he's technically a new employee, he was truly created for the position as he is my (Rosemary) son! He has literally spent his entire life around weddings - starting in a baby seat right by my side at work way back in the beginning days of Premiere Couture. Now he's ready to make his mark on the masculine side of the business by ensuring that every detail of our tuxedo weddings are attended to and looked after. If you've already booked your wedding with DuBois and Premiere Couture you'll be hearing from him soon. And if you haven't, you're going to want to come in and meet him and get things for your own wedding rolling now!
