    probably black tie Archived Message

    Im guessing the wedding will be a black and not a white tie event. The religious ceremony isn't taking place in Monaco so it won't be a state event and i don't think that there is a tradition for private white tie weddings in Switserland as there is in Scandinavian countries.
