[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Adults can have huge birthday blowouts and request formal attire if they want to. That’s not the issue. Yes, it is disrespectful not to at least make an effort of adhering to the dress code. Sounds like the guest is more of a frenemy who wants to stick it to the birthday boy/girl or is a narcissist who wants to make everything about them.

When I married it was in a hotel ballroom in the evening. I didn’t have a dress code, but had relatives show up in jeans. I knew that was likely all they had to wear and it didn’t bother me that they showed up dressed like that. I wasn’t expecting them to buy new clothes for my wedding. [/quote]

My friend just had a 2nd wedding. There was no dress code but it was at a winery.  Most guests wore suits and cocktail dresses.  The groom's ex-uncle-in-law wore an apparently brand new crisp set of denim overalls with a new solid blue shirt and cufflinks that were shaped like tools.  He clearly wanted to play a character part.[/quote]

That is kinda cute and sweet.

Did he have a grizzly beard?[/quote]

NP. I don't see how dressing to pull attention at someone else's event is cute or sweet. If he wants attention, he can throw his own party and wear his hayseed outfit. [/quote]

You mean evening gowns don’t pull attention?[/quote]

Not if lots of people are wearing them. Whatever sticks out like a sore thumb is what pulls attention. [/quote]
