I now getting them pressed means more money out the pocket but when I took some dress pants and dress shirts to the cleaners yesterday that I plan on wearing in vegas at concerts/lounges/clubs (because Ive heard there are some strict dress codes) the lady asked if i just wanted them dry cleaned or also pressed

Breh, I leave for Vegas tomorrow morning, I'm not packing one pair of dress pants. You're good with a nice pair of black jeans

Sometimes people will bring in a shirt or sport coat and asked that it merely be pressed to get the wrinkles out.

Dry cleaning can ruin certain fabrics, so doing it often is not a great idea (dry cleaning suits should be done as little as possible, for example).

I suspect this is why the person asked you that.

I don't own any blk jeans (dont like em)I was bringing dress pants because I wasn't sure if certain spots don't allow jeans or just not baggy jeans

Yeah. Some dress pants have to go to the cleaners -- if the tag says "dry clean only". Typically they'll be your nicer pants. Wool...that sort of thing.
A lot of other pants, mostly the blends (polyester, I think) can be machine washed at home and if you hang them right after, will probably not wrinkle up.
Sometimes if I'm in a bind and just need something ironed but don't feel like doing it, I'll take it to the cleaners and ask them to have it pressed. Doesn't take too long, usually.
But I think someone above mentioned this already...if you get dry cleaning, they will be pressed.
Only other thing worth noting is that sometimes people take clothes in to their cleaner and just ask for dry cleaning, when in reality they would be fine with regular laundering. Laundering a dress shirt costs something like $2 a shirt. Dry cleaning that shirt could be 3 or 4 times that.
