you will get information on tux rentals in your final cruise document package. We have done this in the past. The tuxes are current styled, traditional black tuxes, with 2 clean white shirts. The average cost for a basic tux rental is around $85.00 for a 7 day cruise. Your fresh-pressed tux will be deliverd to your stateroom on formal night.
You can also check out cruiseformals.com
The key to getting a proper fitting tux is to go to a tux rental or men's suit shop and get properly measured, submit those measurements with your tux rental.

If you plan on wearing it again, buy one, don't rent it . You don't know how much I have "saved" by bying one (not just for cruises).

I have to echo Irish Shark. By buying I have avoided rentals for three weddings (including my own), and two cruises. On those alone I would have spent more on rental than the tux cost me.

I am on the Dawn on Feb 8th and I bought a tux off ebay with 3 different jackets and 3-4 ties and 2 vests and shoes for around $175.00. I am from Canada and Tuxes up here are expensive. This way I have different looks for both formal nights. And if I want to I could just sell them back on ebay when I am done to recover my money.
