Been inivited to a do through work... can anyone confirm, do I have to wear an evening suit with bow-tie ? or can I just get away with wearing a smart suit with black tie. Thanks in advance.
 
thanks for the reply.
yes, I understand that, what I was asking would I get away just wearing a smart suit with normal black tie. when its black-tie does everyone wear bow-tie ? apologies if seems silly question but I have never been to one before.
 
The problem with black tie is, even if it is a 'free do', you have your meal drink all the wine then it is £4+ for a half pint bottle at the bar or £8 a double etc and you spend a lot more than you would normally.

My advice is don't bother going if you have not got a tux as is will not be worth forking out for one.
