My fiancee and I have decided for my groomsmen and I (including my father and her brother who are sharing officiating duties) to wear Strollers for our 11AM June wedding.

(I believe it is a stroller. The ensemble has a cutaway coat, dark grey striped trousers, wing collar, grey vest, and grey striped ascot.)

Her mother has suggested that strollers are not appropriate because our wedding is in the church's chapel and not in the sanctuary.

I don't believe this question has been posted previously, I didn't find it in my search. If it has I apologize for the redundancy. But can you answer as to whether there is a distinction between what should be worn in a church's chapel and what should be worn in a large sanctuary? And whether the selection of strollers will require her father to wear one rather than his own black tuxedo that he'd planned on wearing?

Thanks!

Dear CJ,

The stroller is different than the cutaway. The cutaway is appropriate for the very formal daytime wedding and the stroller is appropriate for the formal daytime wedding, which it appears this one is. All males in the bridal party should wear the stroller. The tux is formal evening attire.

Best wishes,
