MY BLACK TIE ONLY EXPERIENCE(AS A GUEST) :(

My fiance and I had a wedding December 30 th, this past year. Not only was it black tie only! it was in the middle of the first blizzard of the winter! what an inconvenience and hassle it was for us!. this couple are in their 40's, first marriage for both, and they are both millionaires!.We are 26 and 29, and we are trying to save for our own wedding! Not only did we have to spend $150 on the stupid tux, we also had to give them a nice gift($250). All the businesse's including where i work closed that day. The man from the tux store called to ask what time my husband would be picking up the tux, because he only opened the store for us because he knew we had this wedding. Ladies, I don't mean to offend any of you if you are having a black tie wedding, please understand that it is an inconvenience for those that have to rent, and it is very costly. Not all couples can afford to do this, especially because we are at an age where we are attending alot of friends weddings.
