I look good but Perno’s had me looking amazing. OK, the first part isn’t accurate. Perno’s is a first rate formal wear rental shop. The entire team of Raye, Natalie, Paige and Ashley worked tirelessly to get me fitted and looking good. This is my second wedding with Perno’s and unless there’s another child I’m not aware of, it’s sadly my last. Rent with confidence. Highly recommended 12 stars

I had a great experience and would highly recommend to anyone needing a tux. Staff was super friendly and made the whole experience easy. Tux fit perfect !!!

Perno’s took my call at 4pm on a Friday, sized me up, and I was able to purchase a tux for a Saturday wedding. It was probably the easiest formal wear interaction I’ve ver had. 10/10 would recommend.

Ashley was friendly and provided great customer service. I have used Pernos for 7 years and enjoyed my experience each time!

Wonderful place to get a suite. My husband got fitted for our wedding and it was a great experience. They were able to order the vest and tie he wanted for that occasion so we could match our wedding colors. He looked amazing.

My son was getting married and my other son could not make it to Perno’s to pick up his suit for the wedding. I went and picked up mine as well as his. When my son got home to try his suit on, the jacket was too tight. I called Pernos and they rushed a bigger jacket to me. It arrived by UPS the very next morning. The only issue we had was that we could not pick up earlier than a couple days ahead. Maybe that’s all formal wear places. I would recommend them for your wedding attire needs.

After visiting and having extremely disappointing experiences at every other formal wear rental place in Athens, we are so happy to have found Perno’s. From the second we walked in the door every employee was very friendly, patient with answering all of our questions about the process and options, and getting my fiancé measured for his tux. Thank you!

Perno's is like a restaurant with great food but bad service—ultimately, it leaves you fairly pleased but not wanting to return. The quality of their products is good, and the prices are pretty good, too. The service, however, is unacceptable—especially for a "high maintenance formal wear" shop. Most of the ladies (girls?) who work there are kind, at least, but this is a specialty retail shop which should merit hiring more experienced employees with knowledge to match the formality of the merchandise. I didn't speak to a single clerk who seemed like she had any idea how to handle (professionally) a transaction past the most basic tuxedo rental. One of them argued with me about my size (rather than simply measuring me..? Isn't that common practice?) in front of several other customers and another employee. I'm providing you with my business... The least you can provide me is decent service and common courtesy. Overall? Very pleased with the tux I purchased—will never darken their door again.

I have NEVER given a review on anything or anyone but Perno’s definitely deserves one! The staff is very friendly, they work very fast to get you what you need, and prices are far better than anywhere else I’ve been. My son decided to put his tux in his closet for safe keeping and forgot it was there. I called Perno’s to explain what happened and ask how much the late fees were. They were very understanding and worked with me on late fees. I will always go to Perno’s for formal rentals awesome! I highly recommend them!
