Wedding Attire

The Mid West just seems to be a more "informal" place nowadays. The only people you see in suits are the old men who were raised in that scenario. Most folks my age wear jeans and a polo/button down, and think that's enough. I've always enjoyed dressing up, but like BB, don't want to outdress the groom.

Now, I wouldn't say that so quickly...I know a number of "young'uns" in our St. Andrew's Society here in the Midwest who wear suits/blazers etc. to various functions, myself included.

That may be true Todd, but I'm sure you'll agree that for a lot of people "dressing up" means putting on the clean jeans.

Growing up in southern Illinois, I even knew a few old farmers that would dress up by wearing a tie with their overalls.
