Black Tie Munch

11 Feb 2007

Has anyone ever thought of organising a black tie dress code and sitdown meal kind of munch?
Reason i ask is that i for one love getting dressed up in black tie attire and enjoying a night out, it makes the whole night seem more special somehow.
Just a thought as to see whether it may be worth taking this theme further?
I appreciate it may add a little more cost to the night it if you need to hire a tux / ballgown but i feel it is well worth the extra cost when it comes down to the night.
there are many tux's available in charity shops would you beleive and often a profit can be obtained once your done with it by seling it on fleabay too :shock:
For my last milestone birthday i had a blacktie doo at a fairly local hotel and they did not charge room hire and the drinks were fairly priced and for about £40 per head we all got as pissed as we wanted to and had a good laugh to boot.
Only downside is that you needed to pre-order the food 2-3 days in advance so number swould need to be finalised before the munch actually happened.
Just testing the water............

The closest I think we had was Darkfire's birthday Munch last year.
The theme was "Decadence & Debauchery". Everyone dressed up. We didn't have a sit down meal,but Darkfire went to a lot of trouble with the buffet- including a chocolate fountain & fresh strawberry's.
There was also a medieval banquet evening.
I think there would be interest in something similar, but pre ordering food maybe a problem & no shows dunno

We did a black tie Munch last year organised by Darkfire and previous to that a banquet was organised at a stately home I believe.
