weddings, wtf to wear

Recommended Posts

When in doubt, ask. Call the bride or groom and ask; they know you, your wardrobe, and it's limitations (or not). They'll probably be happy that you asked, too. I think it shows that you are concerned about their wedding.

It depends.

Start with a mid-ground semi-formal outfit. Guys wearing a tie, nice shoes. Women wearing a nice blowse, slacks, and conservative shoes.

If they mailed out invitations, go more formal.

If they are having it catered, go more formal.

If its at the DZ, go less formal.

Guys can not go wrong with a shirt and tie. Women can not go wrong with a nice blouse and slacks. Shoes should be conservative.

Dude, Dress sharp;)!

Like the others say it depends on the situation, call and ask somebody, I've seen full on formal at a DZ and Tye-Dye in a church(everyone was wearing some sort of tye-dye)
Weddings, funerals and such are special occasions and I prefer to dress as sharp as possible, looking sharp is a form of respect to your host.

Good advice, if you are too embarrassed to ask, err on the side of caution and wear a suit if you have it or atleast slacks, long sleeved shirt and tie.

Dude, dressing sharp is as cool as a hot swoop (and the chicks dig'itB|).
Go all the way, if you have the rags wear'em, remember you can always ditch the coat.

Yup. You can ditch the jacket if you REALLY hate them. Shirt, tie, good shoes, and nice pants are required.



agreed... hey, take a pic too :)

I have threatened to wear my jumpsuit and skydive into my daughter's upcoming, possibly outdoor, wedding ;)
For some reason she didin't like the idea:S

Aww, you chaps are making me feel bad.

My brother will probably get married soon. Which means I have to go (will be fun).

But the dressing up bit! I never understood this part of human behaviour. For chrissakes, I'm the same whatever I wear! Why not go naked instead and drop all the pretense? AGH!

And I dress poorly. No colour coordination, I wear what's comfortable. And suit/tie etc makes me feel *really* uncomfortable. First of all physically, but there's also a feeling of deception - who the hell am I trying to fool? And do the others think they can fool me? It's a silly ceremony! Not a tenth of as important as what happens later. And it gets started off with people dressing up and being pompous and pretending to be all dignified and stuff! AAAAGH!

Man, I'm gonna fear this wedding thing. I made it through the baptism of his kids with only a few 'well meaning' comments, but a wedding is upping the ante a bit.

You're saying that I should just bite the bullet out of respect for my brother and his bride? I would do that, no question about it.

But dude. I'd frigging hate it :P

You know I hear guys say this all the time.


I am extremely comfortable in torn jeans and a Harley Tank Top. Slip on some sneakers and I am ready to go. But I own all kinds of suits just to have them to wear. I have a purple swede five button, a silver John Ghotti style wool 3-piece, a Blue w/silver Pinstripe 6 button suit, a swinging zoot, and a couple others. I love throwing on a suit and tie some sick shoes and going about town.

Why do you guys hate suits and ties so? Do you not realize that your women find it sexy as hell?

Just my opinion. That and a dollar might get you a cup of coffee;)

Stop making sense and making me look like a hypocrite! B|.

Come to think of it, it comes off, so it really doesn't matter. G-strings are easier to rip off though. Yeah, that's it! That's why I like 'em better than grandma trousers - it's a matter of functionality!

Will do. But I'm not gonna let *you* get hold of any of the pictures. I bet you'd post them on all the club's message boards along with the comment "Look! A penguin!"

Bastard :P

Well, I hate it because I for some reason feel it's conceited, uncomfortable, snobby and against the working class who must unite to fight the oppression of the evil capit...

I dunno. I feel uncomfortable in it. Not me. Like a liar.

And for the mating game it would be an indicator of wealth and all the connotations that come with it. I am not sure I want to be part of a game where conceit and deception are the major scoring variables.

I know the signalling power of different types of clothes. But, as a man once said - once the functionality requirements are met (protection, warmth, modesty), the rest is pure vanity. I find vanity to be narcissistic and disgusting, so I don't like feeling it. So I avoid ties :P

Oh shite, now I've made my lack of style into a philosophy. Rationalization rocks! ;)

Maybe the ladies would find it sexy. They'd ditch me two days later when they found out the truth though. :P On the other hands, I would get laid. .
