You'll want to wear an undershirt, just to catch the umm perspiration. Tux's are notoriously hot. I went to Mens Warehouse and got a suit I could wear again.

I thought you mentioned a tux? Where is your tattoo?

Dapper-It goes from elbow-to-elbow across my shoulder blades.

Might I suggest a long sleeve shirt with cuffs, yes you'll need cuff links.

Doesn't a tux come with a long sleeved shirt?

The tux comes as jacket, pants and you provide the shirt, skip the cumberbun.
Forgot to add, if you rent a tux, you are responsible for any damage and or stains that appear. You'll also have a hard time getting rid of former scents, and they come off the rack, so having them altered is a no no.

Here's a few reasons I mentioned Mens Warehouse.
They carry a large selection, you can find any style you like, they have what's known as a Dresser. These folks job is to fit you, to suggest styles and colors that will be the wedding colors. They're knowledge is useful when trying on suits. You'll get something that you can wear again and again. They have an onsite alterations department. They can put you into the right shoe that goes with the suit.

We had mine done and back in less than six weeks, yes sometimes it does take that long to get the alterations done, because they are fit to you. If you grow a bit, they will re-alter at no charge providing your size doesn't change like 3 sizes.

They are LGBT friendly!!!!

Bard got hys tux at Men's Warehouse - our folks were fab!

Our ringbearers were from out of state, but I went with their mom when we visited them to pick and pay for their vests, and was able to pick them up in our state the day before. They were fab!

I have much love for David's Bridal as well <3

To cover up your tattoo for a wedding, I would wear a short sleeved shirt. Makeup can work, though, in a lot of cases. I recommend going to a specialized clothing shop that caters to crossdressers and asking the owner's advice. They have a lot of experience in this area.
