A. E. City.–  An authority on etiquette on the subject of noon weddings says: “The dress of the bridegroom should be on no account too gay: he should wear a dark morning coat, light or white waistcoat, light trousers and light gloves, preferably pearl gray, and a flower in his buttonhole.” – San Francisco Call, 1900
