Question

What is Black Tie Optional and What Should I Wear?

He should wear: A tuxedo or formal dark suit with a conservative tie or bow tie. She should wear: A long, floor-length evening gown. Short, cocktail dresses are not appropriate. Coats, wraps, furs, capes, etc. are suggested for the reception.
