What to wear to a wedding?

Yes - I probably should have said. I have been told he's wearing a morning suit.

There you go: your black Argyll with your new silk tie is ideal. You'll look like a million quid.

I'm desperate to show off my Prince Charlie but I realise it's considered too formal...

It's not too formal Paul---the groom is going formal. It's simply the wrong time of day. The PC is black tie, and black tie is evening wear.

You could spice up your Argyll with diced hose and a silk cravat to match the groom's morning suit. It's not required; and if the other guests/family members are not dolling up to that extent, then it might be considered over the top.

Thanks for good advice!
I think I'll stick with the silk tie... I think it's on a perfect level of formality for the event... I do love my cravat though!
The diced hose are really nice. They go well (but not perfectly) with my kilt... I'll wait for my Argyll cuffs to make a final decision on that and I know what great people on a great forum will aid me on if I'm stuck for a decision on that!

I'll post pictures when I get a chance to try everything on.
