Need help! Proper attire for a co-worker's wedding?
I don't know the guy well, I'm only going to the ceremony, and it's not a 'religious' event. What's the least formal I can dress so as not to look like a tacky fool?

3. coat and tie
you can wear nice pants. you don't need a suit. always dress up for weddings, it's a sign of respect. and you can always take the tie off. (and the pants, if things go really well :) )

7. ahh, well, then you probably need one
unless they don't fit from some sort of temporary condition (are you pregnant again?)
