“As the largest tuxedo rental service company in North America, we are excited to announce this formalwear marketing relationship with the number one wedding planning resource, TheKnot.com,” said Doug Ewert, Men’s Wearhouse CEO. “Brides will now be able to view Men’s Wearhouse’s complete tuxedo inventory selection on TheKnot.com as well as have direct access to our proprietary ‘Build-A-Tux’ tool on www.menswearhouse.com, which allows a bride to easily conceptualize and coordinate outfitting the groom, groomsmen, and father of the bride on her big day.” 

Within the “Build-A-Tux” tool brides can browse a collection of more than 2,000 tux styles and accessory color combinations to coordinate with any dress, including complete looks by top designers.
