Hair cuts for men?

I usually cut my own hair in my bathroom with an electric trimmer, and I'm ok with that.

But... I'm getting married shortly, and I need a place to get a nice haircut.
I've gotten recommendations for places in back bay and south boston, but that's a haul. Anyone have suggestions for a swank mens haircuttery in the general Camberville area?

Thanks for any advice!

Edit:
Ended up at Salon Cu with Umberto.
The guys are Boston-area natives, super-friendly, and gave me not only a great haircut but really good advice on how to deal with it best for wedding photos and what-not.
I'll definitely be back there someday, and highly recommend them. Friendliest customer-service I've had since moving to Boston.

Maksou is actually not that bad for men's haircuts. I think mine was around $50, including wash & dry & a lesson on how to style it. The lesson was an experience in itself, every morning I imagine Charles saying to his stylist in a thick Lebanese accent, "No! This is not him. This is weird-do. I said funky-do! Make it funky."

FYI, my fiancee's haircut at Maksou was around three times the cost, before tip. Men's hair tends to be a lot shorter and take a lot less time than women's, plus I think some of these salons dsicount men's haircuts to try to get happy customers (loike me) who will expand their market.
