Getting married "around" 5PM in Argentina and have been trying to pick the best option for my outfit considering the time and formality of the event. Trick is and what I am unsure about is that all of my research says no Morning Suit AFTER 5pm but no White Tie until 6PM. What do you suggest for this hour of ambiguity? Do we scoot the start time up a touch? I don't want to dictate the start time of this wedding based on my suit but the idea was to have the sunset and the mountains as a backdrop (getting married out in Mendoza) so later doesn't really work. The other thing I keep hearing is that "down there" they (Argentines) don't follow these conventions and people wear Morning Suits even at night and that White Tie is very pretentious. Silly to me as isn't a Morning Suit the formal equivalent of White Tie? Anyway, would love feedback so I can share with them not to mention I am having this made. BTW - a saw the earlier thread about a dinner jacket vs. a morning coat - sorry for the subtle difference when starting this thread.
