I guess because morning and afternoon are not supposed to be as formal. Nowadays, especially in NY, you can be very formal for a morning wedding.

I was married at 12:30pm and had a chapel train dress.

I had a morning wedding and I had a long train. I've never heard of that. If you love your dress, the who cares what other people say.

i think that it doesn't matter what the bride wears... it's your day and it is a given that it is going to be a formal gown. my dress is chapel length with a cathedral length veil...


however, i do think you can't really ask people to come in black tie at a morning wedding... the timing isn't right.... you can ask formal though.

Right--men are supposed to wear morning coats, that's where the name comes from!

Completely agree.

The BP should be wearing morning coats, not tuxes...

Morning Coats? I've never hear of such a thing..how are they different than tuxes?

Here's a pic of a traditional morning suit:



My cousin had a morning wedding and he and the groomsmen all wore morning suits... I don't think it matters what the bride wears, but it's more appropriate for men to wear morning suits to a morning wedding, not tuxes.

That said, I think you can do whatever you want. I would have morning suits for a morning wedding, though... not tuxes.

I also think black tie is inappropriate for a morning wedding.
