No Jacobite shirts or moccasins.
Ok, we are going over the edge here. I dont know where you grew up, but the last funeral I went to in my hometown I was the only one in a suit. Most everyone, including the family was in jeans. I kept getting asked if I worked at the funeral home. The same goes for most weddings as well. You have to dress to the occasion. Here in the podunk towns of the midwest a dress shirt and tie are more than appropriate for a guest who is merely spectating. I would prefer to wear a suit, but I hate out dressing the groom. I suspect Yeti maybe in the same sort of situation as far as region and dress code. No disrespect, just another point of view.
