Alright so it was still $500 which I don't think really count as cheap but we got such a great deal. We found an awesome 3 button Giorgio Armani tux at their outlet marked down from about $2,400 and FH looks fantastic in it. The rest of the bridal party will be renting but we wanted to buy his. Since we will be graduating right before the wedding starting his actual career there might be other occasions for it. Plus for $500 we just bought an Armani tux for the price of maybe 3 rentals. His parents thought it was a massive waist of money but my mom though it was a good deal and we are really excited....I wish I had taken photos of him in it.

To rent a tux around here starts at $160 which seemed high for a rental so the price of buying one was not that bad. I guess I really needed to take a photo he looks just amazing in it...it honestly gives my dress a run.

ok but where the heck did you get it? My fiance is very tall and slender so we need to be able to tailor his tux, and they are just so picky about not altering rentals!
I need to know where I can get an amazing deal! :bbeek:

We live down the road from a massive outlet mall, so we got it there.

Wow!!! I'm so jealous, thats an AMAZING deal!! my fh and i have been looking at suits for him, since he needs a new one anyway after a near-100lb weight loss (go him! he went from a XXL to a size L, sometimes M!) and they're running around that price range.. and you got an ARMANI tux, the king of classic tuxes!! nice~!! $500 is a steal!!

Not a bad deal for a tuxedo with that name behind it. Rentals around here are in the $150 range so that would pay for itself after a few uses.

It was a really great occassion! Offers like this don't happen everyday, you had a great luck.
Me and my future husband are going to try something budget and we both are hiring our clothes - I am borrowing from my sister her wedding dress (I won't wear my old one to a new wedding, of course) and my fiance has chosen tux hire (http://www.formal-hire-london.co.uk/acatalog/white-tuxedo.html) from Formal Hire London (http://www.formal-hire-london.co.uk/) . I guess we will be all right with those clothes. The most important is that we are in love, even if we don't have money for buying stuff;)
