Is a 5:00 wedding considered to be formal?

I know if you have weddings in the evening (say, at 7:00), it's more formal than if you had it in the afternoon (3:00, for example). So since 5:00 is in the middle, is it still considered to be an 'evening wedding' and therefore more formal?

    the time of day doesn't actually make the wedding more formal or informal. the location, weather, activites, overall look of the wedding make it formal or informal. if you want the wedding to seem more elegant or classy, wait til it's dark outside. find out when the sun sets, then plan the wedding around that. if you are having an outside wedding at night with a simple dress, and like one bridesmaid, it's much less formal than if you have one at night with a full skirted/traned dress inside a huge fancy church with 10 bridesmaids/groomsmen and so forth. it really all depends on the setting. i personally like nighttime wedings.

    I agree with shellbell - the location of the event dictates the formalness more so than the time of day. A 5:00 wedding in someones backyard - casual. A 5:00 wedding in a fancy hotel - formal.

    No, a 5:00pm wedding is still informal... formal usually starts at 6:30pm.
