you’re coming across as an unwilling participant
You're absolutely right and now I feel like a dick, haha. I really should make the effort. After all, how many posh cousin's weddings am I likely to attend in my life?
I'm also off to 3 other weddings this year that will all be fairly casual so I should try and enjoy this as something a bit different.
If anyone's got a lead on some vegan shoes that would work for a black tie do that'd be really handy. (Ideally not flip flops).

I mean unless you live somewhere like Australia where I understand DJs are traditional wedding attire, you're unlikely to attend another wedding with it as a dresscode.

I take it that 2nd hand non-vegan shoes are off the menu so to speak?
I’d echo what @inchpincher says, but a second hand DJ/tux off eBay and the. Repost once you’re done

The thing with renting is in principle it makes sense, use once and not be stuck with something you’ll never wear again but for the cost, buying secondhand and selling after to recover most of the outlay is the approach I’d be taking. It depends how super sharp you want to be but you’re coming across as an unwilling participant so I’d be looking at how to attend without breaking the bank.
A friend recently told me a story how he reluctantly attended a fancy wedding and asked his wife if he could wear flip flops. She thought he was joking and sarcastically replied “of course” only to discover upon arrival that he’d done just that. Apparently the mother of the bride had a shit fit.
