Obligation

by  

So my brother is getting married in August. I don't know what to think about that. I barely know the girl and I'm actually kinda surprised. Not too long ago my brother was in England with a girl he really liked, and I don't even know what happened with that. Now he's planning getting married with someone else? Wow.

So the title of my blog this time is what my brother is asking of me. He wants me to be in the wedding, and I want to be a part of it too. However, he and his fiancée want all of us men to wear tuxedos. Now decent clothing has always been expensive for me, and I'm worried about the cost for this. The last time I wore a tuxedo was my high school prom. I remember it being an expensive rental(mostly because I was a big guy). Now I'm almost twice as big. Granted, I'll be much smaller by the time August rolls around, but I'm still going to be a big guy.

Now I've been to weddings but never actually participated in one. Most of those I wore a good suit and tie, and that's what was expected of me. In this case, I don't know what is expected or what to expect. This is not a sarcastic question I'm asking, but is it fair to expect someone to pay for the tuxedo rental? I don't want to sound like I'm dragging my feet- I'm proud of my brother and I hope this thing goes through, but I'm curious as to what others think.
