How to Rent Wedding Attire
Renting clothes for a wedding is usually a fairly simple process. The rental should be set up well in advance in order to avoid any problems. Depending on who needs to rent the clothing, arranging for everyone to meet at a store at the same takes some preparation, especially when the wedding party is large.
- Look through wedding magazines to help you get an idea of which clothes to wear for the wedding. If you are looking for bridesmaid or groomsmen attire, consider what styles or colors will look good on each person before you settle on the clothing. You may want to also look online for ideas before making your final choice.
- Go to a store that rents wedding clothing to look for what you need. Search through the available wedding clothes and select a few items to try on. Once you choose the clothes that you want to wear for the wedding, find out the price for the rental.
- Tell the store clerk that you need to check with the other people who are going to be in the wedding, before you make a final decision on the clothing. Meet with anyone who needs to wear the same wedding attire that you do and have them go back to the store with you. If everyone agrees on the clothing, have a sales clerk take measurements so the clothes will fit properly.
- Find out from the sales clerk how long it will take to make any alterations. Leave your contact information so the clerk can call you once the tailor finishes with the clothes. Pay any up front fee and get a receipt for the balance.
- Have everyone in the wedding party who is renting clothes meet at the store once the clerk calls you. Make sure everyone’s wedding clothing fits properly. Pay the final bill, and find out when you need to return the clothing to the store in order to avoid an extra rental charge.
