I'd have to disagree. As long as effort has been made to wear the dress shirt and slacks, I think that's good enough. We wear tie's enough I think, and besides, it's fashionable these days to go with a big collar and no tie...I guess...<br/><br/>But yeah, I'd have to agree. A surprising amount of LDS people don't dress up for weddings. I think that it may have something to do with the fact that in Utah, there is almost <b>always</b> a wedding to attend. Maybe people just don't own enough clothes. Not saying that it's an excuse people! I say, go buy some new clothes, get some deoderant, and make an effort to look nice and show some respect!
