"Hi there, I’m Gerald from King Tux Formal Wear in Santa Barbara for expertvillage.com and we’re talking about formal wear today and one of the most important things for when a groom comes in is to fit, so we’re just going to talk about fit. We have Bryan here, hi Bryan, hi how are you doing, nice to see you again and we’re just going to show how we do in relation to fitting, it’s very important that the groom looks has a really nice fit. And first thing we’d like to do is check the shirt size and it’s just very simple we just measure his neck size for the neck and then we’ll measure his sleeve length to make sure that the sleeve of the shirt is going to fall nicely beneath the sleeve of the coat. His waist is important we don’t want that looking too big, of course we measure by out seam it’s measuring from the waist down to the floor. We do get the measurement of the coat this will tell us by measuring his over arm measurement and then we’ll go get a coat and have him try it on along with a pair of pants and a shirt."
