Maybe get with the times.  It's 2026 not 1926[/quote]

Good manners never go out of style.  Let’s add don’t wear overly bold colors or revealing clothing.  No beach wear or flip flops.  Geez, some people really must have grown up in the tenement housing with no one to teach them the basics.. should we add don’t eat with your hands (except foods designed to), no vulgar language, and no overly aggressive gestures.  It’s appropriate to bring a gift.

These social norms are to ensue people are comfortable, which is what good manners mean.  Buy a book; there are plenty.[/quote]

If you want to ensure people are comfortable, don’t make them go out and buy clothing to please you.  Let them wear the stuff they already own.

Oh, and the reference to “tenement housing” really shows your class.  The people you are trying to emulate would never say it.[/quote]

I emulate no one - anonymous board and all that.  And most people have something appropriate in their closet. I wouldn’t expect anyone to go out and buy something new - where did I say that? I’m sure OP has an appropriate dress in a different color. A 430 wedding is not a black tie event - church clothing would work.[/quote]

Wearing a black cocktail dress is very different from wearing black tie, sweetie.[/quote]
