My husband's brother is getting married on December 15th. Their wedding was supposed to be semi-formal. They aren't having a dance or a dinner, just a luncheon with family and then an open house style reception. But the groom decided he wanted the dads and brothers to wear tuxes. But the bride doesn't care what the moms and sisters wear, mostly because of a limit of money. She does have two bridesmaids who will be wearing formal dresses in her colors, a friend and one of her sisters. On the groom's side there are 4 sisters, two of which have husbands who will be wearing tuxes. So my question is should the moms and sisters wear formal dresses or just semi-formal dresses or skirt/shirt outfits that are the best they have? I asked the bride and she doesn't even care about anything, "as long as she gets married." So pretty much her mom and one of the groom's sisters is planning the whole thing. Is there special etiquette for this?
