"Hi there, I’m Gerald from King Tux Formal Wear in Santa Barbara for expertvillage.com and we’re just finishing up here on the fit with Bryan today. We’ve fitted him and so we’re going to try a jacket on him just to make sure it’s very important that he tries on a jacket for fit. There are a number of things that you know we’ll see happens, it’s looking good we look for tightness in the back and then the sleeve length is very important and we like to show a little bit of cuff on the sleeve and the back has to look good and then the front of course has to sit nicely and as you can see then he closes the two buttons, normally the top button is closed and the we leave the bottom open if it’s a two button jacket. This is looking really good for Bryan today and he’s going to look really good groom."
