My Debs is in October, ages away but I was wondering how early in advance you have to order the corsage?

Also should I go out looking for a suit or just rent a tux? (My debs is black-tie, I'd say a tux would be seriously pricy to buy!)

It would probably be cheaper in the long term to buy a tux (which is different to a suit so you wouldn't wear it to a job interview as a poster suggested above!) Like for example M&S do some very reasonable deals on tuxes (which are machine washable so you'd save money on dry cleaning) so if you go to 2 or 3 formal black tie events in the next 4 years or so it'd be cheaper to just get a tux rather than renting one for about what €70 each time!

Hide the naggin in the sock. Know a few lads who got the jc results with a naggin in there sock haha

Or hide it outside there house in a flower pot or something and just sneakily pick it up before you leave there haha

I hide it in the waistband of my pants, however I don't think it'd work too well with people who're very thin advantages of being unfit :L

That's not a great deal, fair enough it's a big discount from the original price, but I'm hoping all that from M&S for just over €100!

For a simple solution tear down a curtain and wear it as a Greek style dress.

Why waste a perfectly good curtain when I could just use a bed sheet-it can double as a ghost costume as well.

Gwan Daniel...
Doing tequila shots until 7 this morning and got an hours sleep. Never seen so much puke in my life (not me)
Spent half the night with my date in the hotel room while my friend was passed out puking in the bed and we were doing shots of vodka every time she got sick! Pure fresh night all the same :P

Corvo Attano

Oh God the guy getting sick on the bus door what brilliant.

So what were they selling cheap for ye?

They played all the old songs at ours. Its the reason I was able to sing Grease.

yournerd

My debs in 3 weeks and I have nothing help a mate out peeps

Corvo Attano

3 weeks is plenty of time. All you need is to get through the dinner and then shots will handle the rest.

So a dress, money and a will of steel to pace yourself over such a long period.
