I have one pair of long slacks and a guayabera (traditional Yucatan style white) shirt for more formal events. I iron them. I was going to iron them for a double wedding this past Sunday but was told most people would be wearing shorts and button down shirts. So I went in a Hawaiian style shirt covered in parrots and a pair of khaki style shorts. Of course once I got there everyone else was wearing long pants and guayaberas. I grabbed the host by the arm and asked "Hmm, you said shorts?" To which he replied "Well it's kinda cold tonight." Ya it was cold, think it dipped down to 75F that evening. I'll be ironing the next time I'm invited to any weddings.
