Miss Manners: It feels like my dad cares more about NOT wearing formal clothes than he does about me

The bride’s father rejects formal wear, citing discomfort and symbolizing snobbery, causing tension over respect for the ceremony in the wedding party, according to the bride.

Summary by Nj
DEAR MISS MANNERS: I am getting married in a traditional church ceremony. My father, who will be giving me away, has refused to wear a tuxedo on the grounds that it is a “monkey suit,” even though all of the other men in the wedding party will be wearing one.
