Apparently Ptak's is THE tuxedo/suit/etc. rental place in Uniontown, and in my opinion this is because they have a monopoly on the market, it's not because it's amazing.
My boyfriend was in a bridal party that got their tuxes from Ptak's, and yes, they all were able to wear said tuxes and yes, they all matched, but talk about shoddy. We picked his up the day before the wedding because we were traveling from out of town. He had called in the sizes that the professional tailor he uses in Chicago gave him, and when we picked up the tux, it was insanely oversized... I can't imagine the sizes vary from state to state this much, but the good news is they accomodated us & found a new jacket & a new shirt. They still weren't great, but it's a rental, so we weren't expecting a tailor-made suit.
After talking to the other groomsmen though, we learned that he was one of the lucky ones, considering that one of the other guys' SOLE FELL OFF HIS SHOE while he was quite literally IN the wedding, standing AT the altar. The bridal party had to swing by and pick up a new freaking shoe on their way to the reception, for pete's sake. Another groomsman had a feeling his shirt was dirty when he picked it up from the store, but I assume him just being a dude, decided, well, who cares, only to notice at the wedding that yep, it was indeed dirty with a stain on it. Another groomsman was complaining about the service and how the people at the counter ignored him for a good 30 minutes. Every single groomsman had a story about how it was a bad rental experience.
I'm not trying to hate on what I assume is a family-owned business that's been around for all these years, I think that's great and I wish them the best. I just wish they'd get their act together a little bit because what I mention above is unacceptable. I thought maybe we were the only ones that had an issue, but to find out the entire wedding party had something screwed up is just crazy.
On the upside, you can totally rent a 'The Situation' tuxedo here if that's your thing. read more
