Sartorially, black suits are for formal events or funerals. They look out of place in “professional” environments. Certainly not for a wedding, unless it is specifically black tie.

Depends on what part of the country you live in and the business/professional circles you move in. For many lawyers, a charcoal-gray suit (which is not quite the same as black, but close) is practically a uniform. I see them a lot at weddings even when it's not black-tie.


I didn’t say charcoal, I said black. It’s a rather big difference.
