Wedding attire.
The last time I had to go to a wedding I was in middle school... now in college and much older I'm not entirely sure what's appropriate. Well, no, I do... I know how to dress myself but I kind of don't want to go the typical slacks and shirt route.
Any advice? Help me out fashion people... should I wear some good jeans and a coat? Sweater?
The wedding is mid October, so it'll be a little chilly until the alcohol starts flowing and the music starts

Wtf? Jeans????
Are you kidding!?!!?!?
I think I have warn a suit to every wedding I have been to. Granted 95% of them are russian and it looks like a funeral sometimes with all the men in all black.
That being said. At least nice slacks and button shirt.
Correction: Unless you are going to the wedding for the douche who started Rock and Republic. Then wear jeans.You know that guy LAbull on L4P, that's me, Brendan. Warning: If I typed it and it seems a bit off, it's probably SARCASM.

Sounds boring, but I guess I have no choice but to stick to the typical nice slacks and button shirt. Not interested in wearing a suit... majority of the people will be 21-30 years old. Parents will be there but it's not going to be a huge wedding. Not exactly sure if that matters but... I guess what I'm trying to say is that it isn't a wedding that will be "cultural" in the sense of a typical Russian wedding, or Mexican, or Italian, Iranian etc etc... makes sense? lol Originally Posted by LAbull

You know your people better then any of us do. If other people will wear jeans then do it. You might as well as be comfortable.
Are you going to be giving a toast or will you be in photos with the bride/groom? If so then dress up a little bit. It's their day, not yours

3 piece suit is almost standard at every wedding I've attended. Especially in the colder months when a lady might need to borrow your coat
East bound and down, loaded up and truckin',
we're gonna do what they say can't be done.

3 piece suit, set off with a nice tie, shoes and proper accessories, will look stunning!

Get used to it bud, lol! I love any excuse to rock a suit. 3 piece is a bit much I'd say, but a nice 2 button suit should be the minimum. It'll be chilly, a jacket makes sense doesn't it? When you're warmed up on the d floor feel free to let loose and take it off. Originally Posted by Marvelous

Just because the crowd will be 21-30 does not mean you do not have to show some respect. 2 button classic suit is standard attire for a wedding. People will be wearing jeans? Where do you live??? Will you guys be eating pulled pork sandwhichs and potato chips for the meal?
Wear a suit bro.....or at a minimum slacks and a coat....its the respectful thing to do.
