Lmao. Doesn’t change the fact its their wedding and they can do what they want.
I’m sure if you were getting married, and some friend of family’s son showed up who you’ve probably never talked to shows up in a military uniform and everyone diverts their attention away from you and your newly wed wife, you wouldn’t have an issue.

The wedding was Black-tie optional. Full Dress military uniforms are in the category of black-tie.
They're the military equivalent of black tie, but they're not the same at all. Unless you're there in some military capacity, you should wear traditional black tie.

Link to wedding discussion forum on the same topic. They have a better handle on it than the bride and a lot of the posters in this thread.
How our society has allowed a culture of shunning the military to develop is beyond me. Hell, some places have stopped serving cops coffee if they are on uniform.
I feel pain for my kids due to how many shitty people are screwing up this country.

Yes, at functions where you're there in a military capacity. If you're just a random guest, it's not a reasonable substitute.

Nobody is shunning the military. Heck I’m strongly considering joining the air force next year. Both my grandparents are vets. But I’m not a trashy piece of shite, and wouldn’t draw attention to myself on someone else’s big day by wearing a military uniform to wedding that isn’t a military wedding. Wear a tux or a suit or don’t go

First, I’d probably go get a drink with the guy and ask him where he served and what his mos is. Next, I’d probably go introduce him to the single bridesmaids. Then, I’d go return to my new wife and continue on partying with my friends and family.
To think that this guy too ALL eyes off this precious, fragile bride is quite absurd.
I damn sure wouldn’t allow my wife to act like this woman did.

The military gets more praise today than they have in 70 years.

Because it most certainly is by all etiquette resources I’ve read.

And that’s why this thread is 25 pages, because some people like to try be cool and edgy by bitching about “military worship” every chance they get. Where is all this military worship and why does it bother you? I don’t see it walking around everyday. Most of it is made up in your head out what I can only guess is a sense of insecurity.
Ha. You are so up your own arse, you cant understand how you proved my point here.
One thing I know is that people who wear their accomplishments on their sleeves for all to see, tend to be the most insecure.

it's weird for him to dress up in his military dress uniform for a wedding. he was obviously looking for attention.

Life experience.
Have you ever, in your life, seen someone in dress blues at a black tie affair?
Again, a civilian event where you're there in a civilian capacity is clearly different than some White House or base function.

Get your head out of your butt. The military has been shunned since Vietnam. It subsided for a bit, but now it’s becoming more main stream again.

In this thread..
Not saying democrats don’t shun the military. Knowing how to dress for a wedding and not be a douche is different

I can see both sides. A friend that was in my wedding is military and he just wore a tux like everyone else. I wouldn't have cared but that's what he decided. I do agree that busting out the medals too is kind of calling for attention given the context.
