Khaki suit for wedding and evening reception?

I have a new khaki suit that I'd like to wear for a 2 pm wedding on Memorial Day weekend. However, the reception isn't until 7 pm. It seems pretentious to wear a different suit to the reception. I wouldn't wear my khaki suit to an evening wedding, but is it okay to wear my khaki suit to the evening reception since I already wore it to the wedding earlier?

I'd wear a dark suit for the evening event, even if it means changing suits.

Just wear the thing - few will notice, less care. Read too much on this web board and you will probably need three suits.
