[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nothing wrong with black tie. Reminding everyone in an email is horrible. [/quote]

Expecting people to spend the money to rent a tux, and rent/buy a ball gown so you've got some cool memories and pictures, but not having the decency to actually feed them a meal is pretty wrong.   I get that not everyone can afford a wedding with a meal, which is fine, but in that case the whole event should match what you can afford.[/quote]

op here - yeah, that's basically it. i feel like there are some mismatched expectations here.

for us, we are local, so at least we're not shelling out for a hotel and travel, etc. for us, it's just sort of irritating to be nagged about a dress code while also not being sure if we could come ready to eat or already full (already full, i am guessing).

but i do think that people are just bonkers about their weddings and how entitled they should feel to impose upon guests.

i will add to this: i am grumpy about getting dressed up on the best of days. and i loathe princess-y, ritualized kinds of things. so i am probably not the most sympathetic audience to the nonsense that attends even a normal wedding, forget about one where guests are reminded to put on fancy pants but aren't even going to get the benefit of a chicken dinner.[/quote]
