Not that long ago there was quite a trend of wearing dinner suits (Tux) at weddings anyway so a daytime Tux has a precedent set for weddings, certainly on the Glasgow side. For really formal white tie I would personally prefer a doublet
Just because people either knowingly ,or unknowingly flout a convention does not make what they do right. Is it, in this case, earth shatteringly important? No of course not!
As I have said in this case, the damage has been done and I have no doubt that a "new convention" is in the making, based, I am afraid to say, on ignorance. I think it is rather a shame, but there we go.
