Weddings are like every other social event. Your invitation should give you a clue as to the formality of it. You dress smart, but don't go over the top. You don't have to dance, no one is making you and you're certainly not the centre of attention.
You just have to show up and be polite to the relatives and your friend will just be happy you went. Mostly the whole thing is quite boring, honestly, but it will be fine.

You should act like you've never acted before! (Unless you regularly act like a barbarian, what with the cutting pigs open while still alive with a sickle and threatening to destroy villagers, which would've been my suggestion).

The simplest solution is to just not go, especially since it seems like you don't really want to.

I have never been to a single wedding in my life, and I am trying to live my whole life without going to one.
So I also advise you to not go. Lol


No really, I think it not important for you to go because you don't even seem to be close friends which means they are padding up the number.

However, because it doesn't matter, it is a good practice wedding to learn the formalities in case you have to attend anoth one that matters in the future.
You are 17, so even if you make a few mistakes, people will laugh it off, ao all the more better.
Think of it as a nan learning experience, especially I'd there is no booze involved....

For the dancing, go to YouTube!!!

You really have nothing to lose by attending so don't listen to those who are telling you not to go.

Worst case scenario, you know absolutely no one (except for your friend) and have a great opportunity to meet new people. How do you this? Dress smart, be polite and civil and don't stress out.

You don't have to dance if you don't want to. You might just meet someone (or two) who will change your mind about it.

Really, just go there and try to have a good time. At the end of the night, at least you can say you've been to a wedding.

Frankly, I am perplexed at the lack of alcohol. I have the distinct honour of being best man at my best friend's wedding in the fall, I couldn't imagine doing most of my duties without at least 3-4 drinks down range.

Okay, I've already been to the wedding. Gotta admit it was quite nice and I actually danced so it's a succes. Anyway thanks for all the advice especially to FilipJPhry and DoPo, one day I hope I'll have the chance to repay you (although I doubt it, I'm pretty useless).

P.S. This whole no alcohol thingy was apparently some sort of joke wich I didn't get.
