MY DAUGHTER is GETTING MARRIED?

You could. But you really need to ask her if she wouldn't mind you wearing that. It's her special day and you don't want people's attention all on you instead of her.

Top hats only go with Tails and at evening formal weddings. If this wedding is not both of these then no, dont even bother asking her, you will look over dressed and foolsih. If it is these things, then I would ask her how she feels about it.

HOWEVER, you would not wear the hat inside the church. That is RUDE. Like wearing your baseball cap during the national anthem. You just dont do it. Hats are for out of doors, not inside. So if you are thinking of strolling down the aisle in your hat, get that idea out of your mind, you will not only look rude, but quite fankly you will look quite stupid and if I was present at the wedding as a guest watching you walk around inside a church with a top hat on, I'd make fun of you both behind your back and to your face. You would look ridiculous.

I envy all of my English friends who have gotten married, because it is my understanding that a top hat and coattails are traditional wedding attire over there. Your daughter, however, may have had her dream wedding planned out in her mind since the age of six, and the combo may not fit in with her "vision". I'd talk to her about it first, but frankly, if you were my dad I'd love it!!

Before presenting the idea to her, perhaps find a picture of what you want to wear - in the colors of her wedding (or the colors of her gown trim, even) - and she might just go for it.

I think it would depend on what the other males in the wedding party are wearing. You don't want to stick out like a sore thumb. Your daughter will no doubt be deciding on the style of her wedding and how formal her wedding will be so you need to talk to her.

You can do, but double check with your daughter that she doesn't mind and that she is happy for you to do so, because you don't want to upset her on her special day. The thing is she might already have an idea of what she would like you to wear, but if she hasn't then you can always suggest it

Top hats are NEVER worn with tuxedos...they are only worn with tails and white tie. Also, hats are not worn inside a building - where the hell did you grow up?

absolutely! I'd give her fair warning, though. You're the dad, you're probably paying for it, wear what you want (within reason!). She may balk or "freak-out" but it will just give her something to talk about for years to come. this will be one of your last chances to help her with her character! go for it big daddy!

um...Well i think you should get permission from your daughter first..then if she seems like she doesnt really want you to wear it then dont if she is so excited about her wedding and doesnt even answer then ask you wife what you should do!!

Congrat, you will be FATHER in law.

That day is your big day too so for me you could wear what you prefer to style and feel good.

It's your daughters decision. If she says it's OK, then do it, if not respect her wishes and let her have her day the way she wants it.

Congrats!
