Do suit rentals exist? -XP

Hi ladies,

   My FI hates tuxes and wants to wear a nice suit for our wedding (still formal).  I've looked around and haven't been able to find a place that rents suits.  While he could buy one, it wouldn't get much use (he's in grad school) and we're not going to ask his groomsmen to buy a suit - 3/4 wouldn't wear it again + that's a lot of money.  Has anyone heard of a chain that you can rent suits from or a place in the Boston area that does this?

Thanks!

    I didn't find places that did, so we went with the guys buying suits from Men's Wearhouse during a sale. While you say your guys won't wear them again, buying them was cheaper than renting and they got to keep it, so it saved them money and they got a suit to keep.
    You never know when they may need one.

    We had the guys rent the jamacan suit - since we were married in August and going for tropical theme. I believe they rent the normal black/brown. Worth a call it says your in RI under your pic. We got them from Our Place in North Providence on 44.

    We had our guys all buy suits from Jos A. Bank during their Buy 1 Get 3 sale.  They offer this sale occasionally and it ended up being about $190 per suit.  About the same cost as a rental and they get to keep it.

    Try this place: 

    Keezer's
    140 River St
    Cambridge, MA 02139
    (617) 547-2455

    I have NOT used them myself; I just googled "suit rental boston" and they came up.  They get four-and-a-half stars on Yelp.

    It looks like Men's Wearhouse also does suit rentals, but I plan to check this place, too.
