| I'm going to a formal wedding on Saturday. I'm thinking of wearing my new khaki suit I bought. It's Cotton Khaki (great for spring and summer), 2 button jacket, flat front pants, taylored nicely, black dress shoes, white dress shirt black slim tie. Looks really nice honestly. Is it ok for a wedding?Not me, but here's a pic of it...http://www.flickr.com/photos/songge222/478159719/ |

| OK, but maybe a bit boring.Try a dress shirt in a bright or vivid pastel [ sky blue, jade green, even lavender ], and a print tie with the shirt color in it.Black shoes are OK with almost everything, but I would wear very dark brown.Belt should match shoes or pants. |

| Is it a daytime or nighttime wedding? I would venture a guess that it's nighttime if it is a formal wedding, as you state. If it truly is formal, I would have to vote no to the khaki. It sounds like a great ensamble, but just not formal enough. If it was linen, then I'd say "yes." But, alas, khaki was invented for casual wear. What you've described would be considered "dressy casual." |

| For a formal wedding? Probably not. Is it during the day? Formal weddings are usually after 6, but if it's in the day, and the reception right after in the church hall or the local VFW, it's probably OK. If it's in the evening, and the reception is at a fancy banquet place or a nice hotel no. You need a dark suit.It really depends on the degree of formality and location. I know fashion, but more importantly I know etiquette. |

Not for a formal evening wedding. You really should wear a black suit. Khaki would be more for a morning or afternoon semi-formal or casual wedding. Since it is cotton khaki that makes it even more casual. I would make my husband wear a black suit.  |
