It's the hayseeds that wear the jeans.  They don't own suits or slacks and even if they did they sure as crap prefer to wear jeans while they are smashing Bud Lights on someone else's dime.  Surprised michigancat hasn't seen that before in Ulysses or whichever godforsaken town he grew up in. 

I've seen jeans at plenty of weddings, never seen a bride do anything about it or even act like she cared.

Ah I get you.  One wedding I've got coming up the bride was concerned enough she put something on the invite about dress code, can't remember specific wording but she might as well have put "DON'T WEAR rough ridin' JEANS" because that's what she was trying to say.  And I guarantee 100% there will be jeans there and she will not like that one bit.

some day, I hope to bring a kid to an adult only wedding reception and then watch the sparks fly. if my own kids happen to be too old and actually allowed, i'll borrow a three year old for a few hours or something.

My invite has a dress code on it. Doesn't seem all that odd...

Don't invite the mehs, dumbos
Ms. Wackys step family who live in Chicago and Texas. They tie sweaters around their neck like they just walked off Augusta. No kids, so they probably won't come. We have less than 30 ppl attending. Best men and women. Brothers and sisters, parents and grandparents. I have a small family.

We'll be in Breckenridge, CO 8man.
June wedding?

It isn't...what would be odd would be to invite someone that might not comply and then confront them about it at the wedding. You know who you invited and I'm sure you have reasonable expectations of how they will dress or behave.

I can't recall ever seeing an invite with a dress code, but I don't really read them very closely

I've had "black tie formal" on a separate line twice, but those are the only times I've seen a dress code explicitly requested

Mine is "black tie optional"

Sorry @dlew12 no swimsuits, maybe if I had any say in the matter...

BTW, here's some background that may or may not be relevant...

The company I work for only has 10 employees and my boss is the owner. So he probably made his daughter invite all his employees. But did he really expect the employees to show up? Or is it just like a courtesy invite and he doesn't really expect us to show?
