Is a black suit/black shirt appropriate for a wedding?

I did it and no one cared and there were like three other guys who did the same thing. Some dudes were wearing fucking jeans and khakis. There are no real standards or expectations for men in 2026 everyone expects you to look like a bum, do whatever you want.

you trynna fuck? then sure.
Oxford grey suit, with some subtle pattern, a blue shirt (french blue) and a normal tie (idk brown vintage armani one), and some black boots (like a dior harness boot) is what i would go with though

It'll look like shit, but I guess it's better than a tee shirt. It's hard to justify a black shirt outside a casual setting.
You really don't have a different colored shirt or suit? What tie are you wearing? Do you have a vest or waistcoat?

Depends on the dress code, but that combo will generally make you look like you're poorly attempting to look like John Wick, so I recommend either a lighter shirt or a lighter suit.

A fitted black shirt contributes to a sexy and mysterious feel, I can't imagine wearing one in a casual setting.

like compare/contrast. It's a wedding, not a Prague nightclub in 2014.

No, you aren't john wick trying to go to a friend's wedding but inexorably ending in an epic cinematic shootout, you are also not mourning a loss even if the man getting married is a bro you always wanted to hold hands and cuddle with but won't be able to.
you are also not a nightclub security guard or similar staff to wear full black-on-black formal.
Go with charcoal gray, navy as the darkes, generally you shouldn't try to outstyle the bride and groom

I've been to a number of birthday parties, cocktail parties, diners, and even two corporate/promotional events where people were expected to dress formal (enough) and that I would consider formal (enough).
I've seen plenty of men and women making an effort to look sexy and mysterious there.
It certainly also depends on what you mean by formal, but I could even see someone at a black tie optional event wearing a black shirt under a black suit.

These are casual.

These depend on what's actually happening. If somebody there has the ultimate goal of trying to get somebody else to agree to something, it's not casual. If it's a company or industry gathering, it's definitely casual.
