Yes all of these responses are what I (as an American) see being worn in Scotland, both now and in the past: traditional Day Dress.
The puzzling thing for me is that, as a piper, I've played for hundreds of Scottish-themed weddings here in California, and whenever there are Scots in attendance who have flown over for the wedding they are invariably dressed in black Prince Charlies with ghillies and white hose.
I do recall one Scot in tweed, however: he was wearing a grey tweed Sheriffmuir doublet with matching kilt, an outfit I didn't care for.
Mind you, all of these weddings were daytime, and many were held outdoors.
In any case, here are vintage photos of Scottish weddings, showing how things used to be done
