    Hi Colin,

    Congrats! There are a few factors to consider if you're holding such a wedding here.

    In Toronto your groomsmen can easily hire Prince Charlies and charcoal Tweeds but not Black Argylls. Given the option, I'd put my groomsmen in the somber tweed and either wear that myself or step it up a notch with the black Argyll. I don't think I'd get married in full evening attire unless the event was in the evening and I could expect my invited guests to dress quite smartly.

    I'd also consider how formal Bee was going to be dressed. If she is done up in the most formal of outfits, perhaps it's worth doing a later wedding in evening wear.

    If it was me though, I'd wear morning dress equivalent and put my groomsmen in charcoal tweed. I'd let them wear their own kilts if they have them or hire them if they do not.
