We're doing a "creative cocktail" fundraising event next Friday night (hence
not much time to respond now!). Ask me in a week from now how it goes! I
don't have a problem with the "black tie optional" designation.... People
seem to get it....

Subject: Black Tie Events?

My board is considering changing a successful annual fundraising event from
a weekday evening, business dress, to a Saturday night, black-tie optional.
(Personally, I think an event should be either black-tie, or not: black-tie
optional is too ambiguous.)  Have any of you had experience with "formal"
events?  Any stories out there, good, bad or ugly?

Thanks,
