jerseybeachmom Posted May 24, 2010 #1 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Ok, I've convinced my 3 children that it would make me really happy if the girls were in gowns and I rent a tux for my son. My question is- what does a tux rental cost? We are cruising on RCCL in July. We have 2 formal nights for a 12 night cruise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandylee Posted May 24, 2010 #2 Share Posted May 24, 2010 I think it's about $80 per cruise. Check out http://www.cruiselineformal.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shak Posted May 24, 2010 #3 Share Posted May 24, 2010 RCI has their own tux rental and it has two packages for either $89 or $99. I have used this service on my last cruise and it was great. The tux was waiting in the closet when I arrived. It is a little pricey but I didn't have to buy it, clean it, or carry it. It also freed up a lot of space in my luggage for other things. http://tuxedorentals.rccl.com/tuxedo/tuxrental.nsf Shak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare AFS1970 Posted May 26, 2010 #4 Share Posted May 26, 2010 Check with any local places too, although one that I have used before wanted to charge a premium for a cruise as it was considered a long term rental, as opposed to just having it for the weekend. That cruise I ended up with something different for formal night, but this time around I do not have the other option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David V Posted May 27, 2010 #5 Share Posted May 27, 2010 Try e-bay. You can often find boy's sizes at price equal to or less than rental. Resell after wards or donate and take the tax write-off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janabm81 Posted May 27, 2010 #6 Share Posted May 27, 2010 We've rented on the cruise and it turned out great...the boys even got to pick what vest and tie they wanted....on the other hand I do like David V's idea of ebay and then reselling it...might be more cost efficant, on the other hand then you'd have to pack it and what not. I guess I'm back to voting for the rent on the ship option. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
