Eastpointe sits directly on Detroit’s northern border, about eleven miles from downtown, which makes it an inner-ring suburb in the fullest sense. A wedding starting here draws guests from the city and from further out in Macomb County in roughly equal measure, and those groups do not necessarily share assumptions about how formal an evening is.
The party settles it
Not the invitation, which people skim. Guests take their cue from what the wedding party is wearing, and they take it within about a minute of walking in.
So aim slightly high
A party dressed a notch above what the room expects pulls the evening up. A party dressed a notch below lets it drift down, and the photographs record whichever happened.
How to do it without complicating things
One cloth for everyone, decided with several of them present and ordered together; ask about group pricing for parties of five or more. Everybody still fitted individually, and Roman, master tailor at Lincoln Tailor, on site in our store, setting each length to the shoes that man brought.
