Traditionally, black tie events are formal affairs that require attendees to wear a tuxedo. The only exception is if the invitation states “black tie optional” or something similar.

Deciding what to wear to your first casino night can be a daunting experience. One of the most important ways humans learn to conduct themselves socially is through their dress code. Every important event has a dress code to set the mood & expectations for the environment. 

Although gaming is thought to date back to as early as 2300 BC, the first official casino is the Casino di Venezia, in Venice, which opened in 1638. Casino gaming gradually established itself in the course of the 18^th and 19^th century, especially in mainland Europe, before becoming big in Las Vegas in the early 20^th century. Unfortunately, it suffered various periods of turmoil in the US, maligned by wartime and connections with mobsters, despite the fact there were businesspeople operating gaming services perfectly legitimately.
