Allegra's Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What sizes do tuxedos come in?
A: Allegra's Bridal has many tuxedo styles available in a wide range of sizes, including short, extra long and boys starting at size 3. Certain styles are expanded to size 72, as well as portly, athletic, and husky coats. Allegra's can fit anyone! Just give us a call!

Q: What are the choices for a summer wedding?
A: Black tuxedos are always correct, but some couples prefer the look of white, which also feels cooler, during warmer weather.

Q: Should the fathers dress formally?
A: Yes! Don't leave them out. And grandparents too! When you look at your wedding pictures in the years ahead, you'll be glad everyone looked their best.

Q: How should the tuxedo accessories match the rest of the wedding group?
A: Traditionally, the grooms vest should match the satin (normally found on the lapel, and down the pants leg) of his tuxedo, or match the color of the brides gown. But why stop there, there are so many great vest selections available. Go for it! Button studs, cuff links, Eurobands, formal ties and button covers and even bolo ties are available. Our Allegra's tuxedo staff will help you select just that right "look". That's what we're noted for!

Q: Do I have to wear the traditional formal shirt, bow tie and accessories with my tuxedo?
A: Shirts and ties accessories have changed dramatically over the years. There are a wide selection of shirts and ties to suit many tastes. The traditional Wing shirt in white and ivory are still very popular. But, updated shirts include the Mandarin (collarless), the Crosswick, and the Lay Down collar which is a formal version of the everyday business shirt.
Ties have also undergone a major revision. In addition, the Bow Tie, the Euroband, the 4-in-Hand Tie, bthe Bolo Tie, the Ascot, the String Tie, and the Sharpei Tie offer options. For those who don't want to wear a tie, the Button Cover is a fascinating alternative.

There is every opportunity to have a wedding party this is suave and debonair, and looks every inch the part! We at Allegra's Bridal are committed to helping you look your very best!
