Planning your wedding means keeping track of dozens of details, and one of the most important is your tuxedo rental timeline. Knowing exactly when to reserve, fit, and pick up tuxedos for the groom and groomsmen helps you stay organized, avoid last-minute stress, and ensure everyone looks their best on the big day.
Brides often take the lead in organizing wedding day details, and that includes helping the groom look his best. From choosing the perfect shade of navy to ensuring bow ties match pocket squares, there’s so much to coordinate! With a clear tuxedo rental timeline in place, you can easily plan, coordinate colors, and make sure the groom and his party look perfectly polished from ceremony to reception.

The Perfect Tuxedo Rental Timeline: Your Step-by-Step Guide
Getting your tuxedo rental timeline right is crucial for a smooth, stress-free experience. Here’s exactly when to tackle each step:
6–8 Months Before the Wedding: Start Planning the Look
This is your dreaming and planning phase! Sit down with your groom to discuss style preferences, color coordination, and the level of formality you’re going for. Are you envisioning classic black-tie elegance or something more modern and relaxed?
This is the perfect time to explore tuxedo options with Ashley Grace’s stylists. We can chat through your vision, then guide you to Generation Tux’s incredible virtual styling tools and free swatches so you can see your options come to life! Our team loves this collaborative process. It’s where the magic happens!
Use this time to gather inspiration from Pinterest, wedding magazines, or photos from friends’ weddings. It’s also ideal for deciding to rent, which offers the best value and convenience, especially through Generation Tux’s easy online system.
3–4 Months Before the Wedding: Reserve the Tuxedos
Now it’s time to make it official and secure your tuxedo rentals through our special Generation Tux link or QR code! Using our unique link ensures you unlock all those amazing discounts and benefits, plus it helps us track our wonderful partnership. Popular styles and sizes can book up quickly, especially during peak wedding season, so don’t delay!
Generation Tux makes coordinating groomsmen orders so simple, which is especially helpful if you have guys in different cities or states. They’ll help manage out-of-town measurements and ensure everyone’s on the same page with sizing and style details, all through their user-friendly online platform.
Booking early guarantees a smoother experience for everyone involved. Plus, you’ll have one major item checked off your wedding to-do list, and that always feels amazing!
2–3 Weeks Before the Wedding: Final Fitting & Adjustments
This is when everything comes together! The groom and groomsmen receive their outfits delivered right to their doorsteps weeks before the big day! This means plenty of time for relaxed home try-ons and any adjustments directly with Generation Tux’s fantastic customer support. No rushing, no surprises on your wedding day!
This is when everything truly comes together! Encourage everyone to try on their full outfit at home to confirm a perfect fit. Even with accurate measurements, sometimes small tweaks are needed for optimal comfort and appearance. Generation Tux provides excellent instructions and support for this.
This is also your chance to make any final accessory decisions. Maybe you’ve decided to add suspenders, or switch from a traditional bow tie to a more modern necktie. Generation Tux has you covered with options!
3–5 Days Before the Wedding: Pick Up the Tuxedos
The final countdown is here! Since Generation Tux delivers well in advance, this is your time to do a final, happy check of each person’s outfit. Everything arrives complete, from jackets and ties to shoes and pocket squares, delivered directly to their specified address.
We recommend creating a simple checklist for each person’s outfit to ensure nothing gets forgotten. There’s nothing worse than realizing someone’s missing cufflinks or dress socks on the morning of your wedding, but with early delivery, you’ll have ample time to double-check!
Consider having the groomsmen try everything on one more time, just to be certain everything fits perfectly and all accessories are accounted for for those perfect photos.
After the Wedding: Simple Returns
Once the celebration is over (and you’ve had time to recover and bask in newlywed bliss!), returning the tuxedos is a breeze through Generation Tux. Most rental companies offer a grace period, so you don’t need to stress about rushing returns while you’re still enjoying your honeymoon.
No one has to return to a store. Just put the items back in the box they came in, and ship them back. No dry cleaning necessary! It’s truly the easiest return process ever.
Common Tuxedo Rental Mistakes You Can Help Prevent
As someone who’s seen countless weddings come together, here are the most common tuxedo rental mistakes brides can help their grooms avoid:
Waiting too long to book tuxedos. Popular styles and sizes often sell out quickly, especially for summer and fall weddings. Starting your tuxedo rental timeline early and using our Generation Tux link ensures you get exactly what you want with ample availability.
Forgetting to coordinate the groom’s look with the bridal party. Our Ashley Grace stylists are experts at helping you visualize the perfect coordination. Then, Generation Tux’s free swatches and virtual styling tools make it easy to bring that vision to life.
Skipping the final fitting or missing accessory details. With Generation Tux’s early delivery and home try-on, everyone has ample time to ensure a perfect fit and confirm all accessories, preventing any wedding day surprises!
Not communicating clearly with out-of-town groomsmen. Generation Tux’s online platform is a godsend for managing bridal parties across different locations, making sure everyone has their measurements in and their perfect look delivered right to them.
