Yeah, not my wedding, just a guest for the full day. I'd say it is going to be quite formal but they haven't specified on the invite.

[Skull Commander]

I'd wear a tie to a day invite.

[Spatial]

If they haven't been specific turn up in a shell suit. Take the invite with you and if anyone says anything just produce it from your pocket, tap it with your index finger, then tap your nose with your index finger and just walk off.

It won't matter by that time anyway, as they'll already think you're a cock for not wearing a tie

[Dirty Sanchez]

Is it acceptable to go to a wedding and not wear a tie with my suit or will people think I'm a cock?

Yes..

[NW2013]

Yes, it's acceptable or yes they'll think I'm a cock?

[kernow]

Do what I do and just don't turn up despite being invited.

f*cking hate weddings me.

Before I used to make some excuse but now my bird covers for me and just tells the inviter I don't like weddings. siiimple.

[charlesr]

When you die, do you have to face all the people who annoyed you during your life one after the other like in a 90's beat 'em up?

[kernow]

What, like 900,000 people?

That would be awesome provided they gave suitable weapons.

[EJG1980]

Hopefully it'll be an FPS, I'm better at those than beat 'em ups.

[Dirty Sanchez]

Yes, it's acceptable or yes they'll think I'm a cock?

Both

Totally acceptable, shirt is OK, you could get away with a T-shirt if you want to look like Simon Cowel or some brash out there .com on the edge type of guy - with trainers would be pushing it though.

You could go in a psuedo fancy dress, say Del Boy, with a lovely-jubbly gold D necklace. Sweet.

Whatever people wear at weddings all the other people will be comparing themselves to each other, be that clothes, cars or even the drinks they buy. Got to love weddings for some real bitch fests, even better if you don't know many people there. just don't insult the brides mother - or her hat.

Suits without ties are what footballers wear when they go out and they have little social skills.

These people are going to great expense to feed you, entertain you and make you a part of what is, to them, one of the most important days of their lives.

It's not about you, so I'd say give them the respect to wear a tie as you're going all day.

Heck, we all know that you'll be doing a "Rambo" with it on your head by the time the disco's in full swing!

[Alastair]

There's some weird opinions in this thread. I didn't wear a tie to my wedding. And the only concern I had of other people was that they were comfortable and happy, could not of cared less if the guys had a tie on or not.

Here's a suggestion, ask the happy couple what they expect.

Ha ha, yeah! I'd go for that.

Good idea!
