Taken from one of my wife's 'wedding etiquette' books:

The groomsmen are responsible for the tuxedo rental and any fitting costs. The groom chooses the tuxedos and tells you the location to go. Any jewelry that is requested to be worn is the responsibility of the groom.

Didn't I just say that ?
What kind of cheapskate will not spend less than 200 for a buddy's wedding ?

I despise weddings. The last wedding I was invited to as the best man (lucky me) was in the Bahama's. Well isn't that swell. They thought it would be romantic to get married on the beach even though.............we fucking live in FLORIDA!!!!. Not only did I have to go through what you did with the tux but I had to pay my own airfare as well hotel accomodations and food. Lovely way to spend $3k on a vacation I didn't want to go to in the first place!. He'll probably end up divorcing the bitch anyway.

Ha ha! this thread reminds me of an "event" a few years ago...... Damn it was funny as hell.

I was the best man..... now anyone that knows me would know that spells trouble.

Okeee here we go.... Stag party Time! Beer? check, Food? (have it all done) Check, Music? Check, Smut movies? NO.... Strippers Yes yes yes! Check!, invites out? check, Ok everything set for a good party.

Now this guy really loves beer and can consume as well hold his own with beer so we needed to make a change there... SHOT! thats it! shots of liquer that he normally never has...... ok perfect Now we got him snot assed drunk and party is over he's passed out.....

So what to do with him now? why take him home of course!

Well you can't just take him home like he is can you? Noooooo! so with a little help from a nice stripper we prepared him to go home why she donated lipstick too!

After he was oh so nicely done up we piled him into the back of the pickup truck and drove him home..... Hmmmmm it was late yeah very late and we really did not want to wake up the future wife (they were already living together) So we just ummmmm kinda left him on the front lawn...... Hey! we were nice we left him in a reclining lawn chair..........

Well oh hah! hah! his wife came out on the way to church (did I say it was sunday morning?) and there he was sound asleep on the front lawn with a funny ass lipstick painted face and lipstick all over him (we took of his shirt to make more drawing space) and omg that had to be funny cause the neighbors were already out there looking at him....

Damn wonder why his wife don't like to talk to me too much?

Unless he woke up with no idea where he was in another state, in a motel room with no phone, no cloths, no ID, no money, no sheets, pillow cases, pillows, blankets, towels, wash cloths or place mats...well you get the picture.
