As the guy who marries and has his birthday party will pay for the parties I think Friday and Saturday will be pretty cheap, so the budget should fit.
The yakuta is a good idea, i am gonna checking out this place you mentioned at Asakusa-Sensoji temple entrance. Thx also for the fashion tips.
My sister mentioned sth. about "one green elephant"-jeans she likes. Somebody knows how much they are in Japan?
I think cosplay is nothing for me, I like watching it, but I am not the type wearing it.
Thx again for the great information,
Joe

You MAY be able to get a used kimono (just the outside piece) for around US$800. IF I remember correctly, there should be 2 stores that sell used kimono in one of the gallery arouond Tokyo station, and there should be a store in the covered shopping area in Shibuya... I could be wrong though.
I don't know the prices for One Green Elephant, their style isn't much different from a standard jeans, its more branding than anything else. Give jshoppers.com or yesstyle.com a shot
Cosplay, you can see a load of it in Akiba and Harajuku in the weekend. Have fun "Watching"
