    Must one wear a tuxedo?

    I really really REALLY don't want to wear one

    Then don't wear one. Everyone will only think you're a prat! ;)

    There's nothing wrong with them anyway, any awkward feelings you have will go as soon as you see everyone else in them.

    I estimate everything will come close to €900 or so for the night. Jaysus.

    Bleugh... I'm paying the bf's ticket for mine, should be about 80 each. No idea about dress yet, I trust in myself to find cheapish shoes and do my own make up....hair and nails, god knows.

    Went to a ball last year though, spent €15 on the dress....go super sales! and robbed shoes/shawl etc from other people, got the ticket free. neyehhe

    That explains a lot then...

    I've to pay a €70 deposit for my grads tickets, but I dunno how much they'll cost in total. I have a tux but I'll probably hire a classier one for the craic. Is hiring a helicopter a bit extravagant? ;) I'll do it if I'm dared (and payed!)

    Friends dad mentioned getting us a limo, he's in the ol' car business so that'd be pretty cool. I'm a bit freaked at the mo tbh, might have 2 debs and a youth awards ball this year...dunno how I'm going to afford it if I don't wanna wear last year's dress!

    Christ you sound like great fun.

    Went to three this year, spent a fortune but tbh money comes and goes. Worked hard for the money so im damn well gonna have a good time spending it. A great bank balance doesnt compare with good times and good memories tbh!

    I'm sure it does if you're going to college somewhere far away, I'm hoping to go to LIT and if I have to come home for my debs and then pay for a load of stuff, where's my rent and my food money coming from?

    Don't know yet, but I went to this years one, because I did TY and we were entitled to.

    Tickets: 70 each, I just paid for mine
    Dress: 33. Internet FTW.
    Shoes: 40. Schuh sale!
    Make-up: About 50
    Bag: 50. But it's STUNNING.
    Hair and actual make-up application- FREE. Yay for my sister!
    Drink: 60
    Formal photos: 12.50..split cost of 25. And I got 3. Good value...

    Was a great night, this years debs won't be in the same place thanks to legal issues (knacker went mad and attacked people: broken bottle and such) so tickets might be more expensive, I'll probably splash out a bit more on my dress too.
