  • Def. trousers and shirt - tucked in PLEASE!!! - trousers with a belt!!

    Ohhh, I don't know about tucked in! Fine if you're wearing a tie but a shirt tucked into trews would look like you forgot to put the tie on? And if the gentleman in question has a bit of a belly, like Mr HappyButterfly, definitely leave the shirt out - WITHOUT a tie!

    So, shirt and tie? Tuck it in. Shirt only? Leave it out.
  • I would think that pants no matter how smart wouldn't be a good idea! :rotfl::rotfl:


    Definitately not jeans. It shouldn't make any difference that its only the evening as all the dau guests will still be there.

    Ah but in my experience, a Northerner wearing pants is different to a Southerner wearing pants! ;)
    If my posts have random wrong words, please blame the damn autocorrect not me :D
  • I would go with a dress, shirt, but no tie.
  • I saw these a while back and thought this idea was pretty neat.

    Glowing Pocket Squares and Bow-ties would be cool for the whole wedding party too. \

    Illuminated Couture is the name of the company.
