  • Sunday afternoon.  Black tie optional.  Kids.

    I'm sorry, my head just exploded.

    Ditto.

    I can't imagine anyone's going to be scrutinizing him all that hard, but I'd probably just put him in a pair of pants and a shirt and maybe a cute clip on bow tie (just for fun). 

  • I think when someone says Black tie optional- they are trying to say that is a formal affair and just because it is a Sunday afternoon does not mean you can't still wear a formal suit or gown.  I honestly typically wear a black cocktail dress, dressy silver or black strappy shoes a great back and dressy jewelry.  I would probably dress my son in a nice outfit from Janie and Jack- maybe a shirt, sweater vest and dressy khaki's.  Something he could wear on mothers day, Easter and any other nice occassions we have this spring.

    He might be!

    I just feel like people need to pick one or the other -- either it is black tie, or it is suitable for toddlers.

    The Knot is living proof not everything thinks this way.

  • Black tie is always an option...after 5.

    Who in the name of god wears black tie in the afternoon?

  • We went to a fancy-ish wedding last summer with Oliver and he wore plaid overalls and a newsboy cap from Janie & Jack...it was really cute! I'm not into suits on baby boys.

    I am trying to imagine corralling my kid while in black tie attire.
