Tori's Black Tie for women

I think heels and hair/make-up can make most dresses black tie. I tend to go out and buy a dress for each wedding I go to. But that's just me.
Does it have to be full length? I don't think so.
Here again are some visuals on the red carpet.





I'm not enjoying telling people how to dress. I thought everyone would see black tie and go sweet! a chance to dress up. I get a certain idea in my head and get stuck on it like, wouldn't it be nice for everyone to be dressed up? That's why I've labelled these blogs bridezilla.

In the end it won't really matter, as long as the people we invited are there, I don't think we'll even notice.

Tori's Black Tie for men

These are only my standards.I'm a Brisbane girl and realise that it can get hot.
I made the mistake of putting 'Black Tie' on our invitations. It's done and I don't want to undo it. But it was suppose to be fun. A chance to dress up. Not a major drama. So to start of with let's put out a minimum. Collared white shirt, black tie (does not have to be bow), black pants and nice enough shoes and a jacket would be nice.
My theory is if it can be done on a red carpet then it is black tie.
So here are some visuals.






If it were me dressing Ri. Does he have black shoes? yes. White coloured shirt? yes
Black pants? yes. Jacket? No. Either borrow one from friend or find one at Vinnies (he had one that he bought for $3 from Vinnies - I think it died, but he got some wear out of it) or buy a simple black one he can wear again. Does he have a black tie? No. Borrow from my brother who I know has one. DONE.

Do they have to be in black and white? No. It just looks classic. Like you can't go wrong with simple black and white.

This would not fly:

Be nice to the single ladies.

I've been reading about what sounds like might become a new song in the wedding song list.

I hope I never hear it at a wedding.

During the bouquet toss, brides to be seem to be seriously 'all over' this new song.

The song is "single ladies" by Beyonce Knowles.

Now while the beginning sounds fine to me with the:

All the single ladies

All the single ladies

All the single ladies

All the single ladies

All the single ladies

All the single ladies

All the single ladies

Now put your hands up

STOP THE SONG THERE.

It goes on about break ups and crying after another failed relationship and then the best part;

cuz i cried my tears, for three good years

Ya can’t be mad at me[Chorus]

Cuz if you liked it then you should have put a ring on it

If you liked it then you shoulda put a ring on it

Don’t be mad once you see that he want it

If you liked it then you shoulda put a ring on it

The only thing worse than being single at a wedding is having that kind of stuff blasted in your ear. Or worse! If you're in a long term relationship and the man is not proposing, a wedding is the worst time to be reminded that he is yet to put a ring on it...
