    A black tie event would mean a tuxedo. Best bet is to head down to a formal wear rental place (e.g. www.blacktie.ie) about a week or so beforehand to book one and get measured etc. Tell them specifically what kind of event it is and they will get you exactly what you need.

    Couldn't tell you how much a tux rental goes for these days...

    Hiya

    Go to Black Tie in Patrick Street, tell one of the assistants you are interested in hiring a suit for a black tie event, usually they'll be able to offer you a range of tuxedos, tell them your budget, I know when I was looking for kilts for my wedding for my brothers they were going to charge €110 a day. So a tuxedo will probably be around the same. They will measure you, I doubt they'll make you strip, probably over your clothes, just wear jeans and a tee shirt and it should be OK. They're really nice, don't worry, just make sure you go soon, they usually want two or three weeks notice beforehand.
