You probably already have a tuxedo in your closet collecting dust, so why would you want to purchase another one just for a day? Unlike brides, grooms generally don't keep their tuxes for sentimental value.
While a tuxedo is a fundamental part of any man's wardrobe, unless you find yourself needing to wear one more than once or twice a year, spending that much simply doesn't make sense. For most guys, there simply are not enough black tie events to go around to make the purchase worthwhile. The same thing goes for your groomsmen; how many of them are willing to shell out so much cash for something that'll just end up gathering dust in their closet or at the bottom of a clothes pile?
So a great alternative to buying an excellent tux is to buy a tuxedo on the cheap.
Ask any good tailor if they can put together an affordable and quality tuxedo that will last beyond your wedding day, and make it look as modern as any slim-fit Hugo Boss tuxedo. The truth is that nobody will know the difference, except you. And if you can convince your best man and other groomsmen to shell out for similar tuxedos, then you can spring for a package deal which will ensure the entire party gets outfitted with a tuxedo to keep.
